A method of scanning a substrate includes immobilizing a substrate on a substrate holder within a processing chamber and performing a pass of a parallel raster pattern by synchronously driving a first rotary drive and a second rotary drive to move the substrate relative to a processing apparatus focused on a localized spot on the substrate, the first rotary drive being coupled to a proximal end of a pendulum arm and the second rotary drive being mounted at a distal end of the pendulum arm and to the substrate holder. Driving the first rotary drive during the pass includes moving the pendulum arm in a first arc motion for a first portion of the pass while the localized spot is on the substrate, and then moving the pendulum arm in an opposite second arc motion for a second portion of the pass while the localized spot is on the substrate.
