A DISK TEXTURING TOOL (37) IS USED, FOR EXAMPLE, TO PROVIDE TEXTURED SPOTS IN AN ANNULAR PORTION OF BOTH SIDES OF A DISK (49, 182) FOR A HARD DISK DRIVE. DISKS ARE MOVED INTO AND OUT OF THE TEXTURING PROCESS IN CASSETTES (48,56,58, 166), THROUGH TWO DISK-HANDLING STATIONS (38, 39). AN OPTICAL SYSTEM INCLUDES A LASER (108) DIRECTED AT A BEAMSPLITTER (132) TO SPLIT THE LASER BEAM INTO TWO BEAMS HAVING APPROXIMATELY POWER, WHICH ARE DIRECTED ALONG PARALLEL PATHS THROUGH A POWER CONTROL OPTICS BLOCK (136) TO EXPOSE SIMULTANEOUSLY OPPOSITE SIDES OF A DISK TO BE TEXTURED. THE POWER LEVEL OF EACH OF THESE TWO BEAMS IS CONTROLLED BY A PROGRAM WHICH OPERATES IN A TEACH MODE TO DEVELOP A LOOK UP TABLE DESCRIBING LASER BEAM POWER AS A FUNCTION OF A SIGNAL DRIVING AN ATTENUATOR, IN A SET POINT MODE SETTING THIS DRIVE SIGNAL TO PROVIDE A CERTAIN LASER BEAM POWER, IN A RUN MODE CONTROLLING THIS POWER THROUGH A FEEDBACK LOOP, AND IN A DISPLAY MODE SHOWING LASER BEAM POWER AS A FUNCTION OF TIME.
