The ASC controller and InScript software solution for our ARGES scan heads features powerful synchronization tools to enhance laser system performance. Featuring real-time control signals, remote diagnostics and administration, and high accuracy and throughput for demanding applications, this laser controller solution empowers users with more control and flexibility to optimize their laser system.
Compatible with our ARGES scan heads, ASC is the central device in a laser system, controlling scan heads, lasers, sensors, actuators, and other peripherals. The ASC, HSSI series uses the High-Speed Serial Interface (HSSI) data protocol for scan head communication. A combination of highly configurable interfaces and processing units responds in real-time to external signals. In this manner the ASC controller guarantees an optimized synchronization of all devices and signals, which is important in laser systems.
The ASC controller is an autonomously functioning device that does not require a host to carry out its processing tasks. It can be remotely diagnosed, administered, and parameterized via Ethernet TCP/IP.
This control environment includes the InScript® software, which is supplied with the ASC, as well as other software-based connectivity solutions. This complete solution enables a high degree of flexibility for precisely configuring the system to your requirements.
