Abstract
In various embodiments, a laser head receives a laser output beam from a laser system or resonator without the use of a delivery optical fiber, and any asymmetry of the laser output beam may be maintained. The laser head may be physically rotatable to control orientation of the laser beam along a processing path on a workpiece.
