The New Scale Technologies M3-TMM-U2-4.5-6, Two-Axis Tilting Mirror Module is an all-in-one solution for controlling laser beams in multiple axes. All necessary position sensors, communication, and motor drivers are built in. Rotations are produced by friction with stable zero-power hold and high first resonant frequency, providing greater stability and durability under external shock loads.

This Two-Axis Tilting Mirror Module is an ultra compact beam steering system intended for use in miniature beam steering applications. Its small size and high precision make it ideal for extreme miniaturization of large and complex photonics instruments and benchtop systems. Internal Construction This product uses New Scale’s patented UTAF piezoelectric ultrasonic motors in a planar configuration that moves a single mirror in two independent orthogonal axes using nested gimbals. The UTAF motors fit in the plane of the mirror and generate movement around the X and Y axes. Mirror substrate and coating can be selected by the customer.

Power and Digital Control: Only 3.3 V DC nominal power and digital commands via SPI or I2C are required.
