Detailed analysis of a laser piping system for beam delivery applications
for laser manufacturing. The analysis involved detailed analysis
to obtain critical alignment information for the laser delivery system in
terms of beam translations and rotations through the reflected system. A
comprehensive modal analysis was completed and the frequencies and modes
discussed in physical detail. A stochastic analysis was completed
based on the power spectral density (PSD) anticipated in the manufacturing
site. The analyses were completed concurrently with the manufacture of the
system and delivered before the laser system was installed at the client's
customer site.
