Radiation transport and focusing systems for power industrial lasers

Basic principles of setting up multiposted systems of radiation transport and focusing are discussed. Development of certain unified units, from which various systems of transport and focusing are composed, is reported, their main performances being given. Standard units, including stationary revolving mirrors, optical switches for one or two beams, universal posts, etc., permitting assembly and flexible rearrangement of radiation transport systems of several powerful lasers to a number of technological posts
