Shorter Wavelengths, Pulses Power Laser Manufacturing
Oct 21, 2014 — Recent laser advances are bringing benefits to manufacturing applications involving drilling, cutting and welding. More powerful diode lasers could, in the future, do more of these jobs directly, instead of being used to pump another material. The use of steering mirrors promises to speed up welding and other applications. Such innovations look to enable systems to become more powerful, simpler, more robust and less costly.
