If galvo cost is a concern, you can build a galvo for much less using 1/8” by 1/4” diametrically magnetized neodymium rings. These can be bought for like $4 o r $6 a pop and can be slid onto a 1/8” rotary shaft. You can then make an optical encoder and use it with a driver board, or just send it full swing left and right with no position detection.

You are right about the galvo hardware being simple to make, but the servo driver electronics is still more expensive to buy (or more complex to make) compared to a stepper driver. But as I mentioned at the end of the video, I have an idea for a next version where I'll try to use homemade "galvos".

@@StanleyProjects Also, sorry to bother you further, but do you have any recommendations for literature on creating the magnetic coils for the galvo? I am attempting to make a set from scratch. Ill use a bipolar power supply + homemade amp circuit + aliexpress optical based galvo amp board (already have), but I'm making the galvo using those ring magnets from mcmaster carr. I figure the amp board only cares about the voltage (or current, im not sure) inputs from the two silicon photodiodes, and will output some voltage (positive or negative) to each coil to get the rotating assembly to spin towards the degree position determined by the voltage input from the homemade amp circuit (driven by esp32). I can mess around with different IR leds and different optical encoder setups to get the right outputs.. I feel I understand the process I need to go through for adapting the amp board to the homemade galvo, I just don't understand how to make the magnetic coils as efficient as possible. Obviously increasing the number of turns in the loop, keeping the distance >0 but as small as possible, etc make sense.

To switch the mirrors very very fast, wouldnt it be possible to use piezo elements? They have huge torque but you can achive lightning speeds 🙂 (i talk about the small speaker piezo discs, not the expensive actuator piezos. if you combine two of them in serie you can move 1 mirror and they are very very cheap.) Only problem is to find a DAC that has at least 14bit and +/-60V output...

True. Ever since I've seen the cheap piezo discs used as capacitor actuators for a DIY scanning electron microscope (hackaday.com/2015/01/13/cheap-diy-microscope-sees-individual-atoms/), I was thinking about using them to somehow position the mirrors. One of the issue is that the microscale movements have to be translated (probably through some lever mechanism) into the range reasonable for beam deflection.

Awesome project, subscribed. how does it compare to using a galvometer in terms of kpps? It would be great to see a longer demo of what it's capable of!
@StanleyProjects
@StanleyProjects 2 жыл бұрын
Thanks! The motor has 288PPR (1.25°) on the output shaft, and I am running it at max 120RPM at full step mode, so theoretically, I am driving it at max 576pps. However, the performance is influenced by factors such as motor's inertia. For example, sudden, quick rotation changes over a short angular distance will most likely cause the motor to skip steps. That could be solved by increasing the gearing ratio, but it also decreases the output speed, so it's counterproductive. The only thing I can say is that the performance in kpps is several orders of magnitude lower than with galvanometers, but that is also expected - they cannot really compete in terms of speed. I will upload a longer demo in the next video.

Thank you! Theoretically yes, you could use the positioning system even with higher-powered lasers (with proper optics when using fiber or CO2 laser). However, I don't believe it would yield to anything usable when used as it is now. After all, the stepper motor has more inertia, and will never be able to delineate precise curves at higher speeds compared to galvo. Maybe with some fine adjustments, microstepping, proper CNCed components instead of plastic, and slow speed. But if you care about precision-to-speed ratio, galvos are hard to beat.

If it's just for a a DIY project and not an industrial application, you can get cheap pH probes from AliExpress with a BNC connector. The center pin outputs a low impedance signal, so you have to feed it into a buffering op-amp with low input bias current. The signal can be both positive and negative, but if you bias the probe with positive voltage through the outer contact, you can offset the output so you won't need a dual sided power. The easiest thing for you would be to get a kit which includes both the probe and the board. As an example, you can search for "PH4502C".

I would not use stepper motors with gears. The smaller the mirrors the fast you can change its direction. Depending on the torque of your motor you can use a physical homing, like a screw, the motor turns a full rotation to one side then you know its absolute position, this is very common in commercial laser equipment with steppers, your mirror attachment to motor would need to be stronger.

I think servomotors (and range adapting pulleys) would be a better choice. Also, less massive mirrors would improve the dynamic response rate. I would probably lap a small piece of aluminum.

Considering an amount and a price of equipment needed to make this mirror system, a $80 galvo laser scanner does not look too expensive. Thus that argument should not be used. And at the end, when you will fix a non-linearity, and add all missing parts, your price will be about the same, or even higher.

Having geared motors slows down the response time - the inertia of the motor is essentially multiplied by the gear ratio. Use 3-phase permanent magnet rotor motors - like in brushless RC toys. You only need to control 2 phases and can use a magnetic sensor to get feedback on the position. Alternately, for a very responsive one, use the head motors out of old hard-drives. They are already designed to be very, very fast.

Why are you using geared stepper motors? Those will slow you down a lot. Smaller motors will run much faster, as you don't need much torque for such a small load. Nema8 would get you to much higher speeds.

Please design something precision based. Have been looking into laser scanning for almost 20 years and finally learned something new from this video about the fact that galvo motors are using a rod magnet. Maybe use a prism mirror in polygon scanners used by laser printers, they are used for precision based scanning.

You may be able to do away with the position sensors as the laser will behave differently, current draw, when the mirror is reflecting light back into it. You just zero one mirror then the other.

Nice Job ! I did some kind of similar project myself ... I used a different approch by driving the stepper motors as an open Loop galvo. For this, i needed to find small stepper motor tu reduce the mass of the moving part. The motor also need to have a large stepper angle. Then, i drive one coil, with a constant voltage so the stepper got a "virtual spring" center point. The second coil is driven around this central point as a galvo. It still an open loop system and the laser positionning is not perfectly linear. But is work well to draw some basic figure, and is very good to make some eyes candy effect synched/triggered by the sound.

I enjoy the process of making stuff, and learning new things along the way. If I purchased the $80 galvos, I would anyways need to design a custom driving board. And even then you could argue "so all this hassle to not spend $150 on a readily available RGB laser projector from AliExpress".
