Video: Setting up your DataRay M2DU Translation Stage

DataRay's automated M2DU translation stages are a great way to add functionality to your DataRay beam profiler system. Automatically controlled by our beam profiling software, M2DU stages move your DataRay beam profiler to different Z positions, allowing fast and easy quantification of beam propagation, including M², divergence, pointing, focal plane location, and waist diameter.

DataRay has developed several videos outlining M2DU stage functionality and workflows. In the first video of this series, we cover setting up the hardware for your M2DU stage as well as a few initial software steps. Watch it below.

Keep a look out for future videos in this series covering M², divergence, pointing, focal plane location, and beam waist diameter measurements. Have a question about your beam profiling application? Our team of beam profiling experts is happy to help. Contact us today!
