Abstract
A deformable mirror for a laser beam material machining apparatus including a housing for supporting a mirror plate, an electro-mechanical actuator disposed within a jacket tube, a pressure portion disposed at one end of the actuator and a rear end adaptor with a prestressing screw at the other end of the actuator for operatively acting on the mirror plate. The materials of the jacket tube and the housing as well as the materials of the pressure portion and the rear end adaptor are so selected on the basis of their linear coefficients of thermal expansion, such that a temperature change will cause essentially similar overall linear expansion.
