In-line mounting
In-line mounting refers to an orientation where the beam exit of both the marking head and laser are
in the same plane but the head is oset some distance in front of the laser (see Figure C-2). This type of
mounting is common in a “space-saver” situation where the laser is mounted vertically.
Figure C-2 In-line mounting
Oset mounting
Oset mounting refers to an orientation where the beam exit of the marking head is oset some lateral
distance from the laser’s beam exit centerline (see Figure C-3). This type of mounting is useful in situations
where the laser must be oset from the marking head to prevent interference with the product ow or with
other components in the manufacturing system.
