Dynamic Beam Laser to Push Limits of Materials Processing
DRESDEN, Germany, July 29, 2021 — Laser experts from Germany and Israel are testing a laser for industrial use at the Fraunhofer Institute for Material and Beam Technology IWS. The laser is part of the Saxon-Israeli research project “ShapeAM,” which began in July 2021, part of the European network program “M-era.Net.” Fraunhofer is currently investigating the beam shaping, which is accelerated by 1000×, for the first time for additive manufacturing, alongside project collaborators Civan
