Surface processing with lasers

Abstract

Carbon dioxide and Nd:YAG lasers are unique heat sources for surface processing. With laser heat sources, it is possible to attain highly localized rapid heating and cooling in a variety of atmospheres. Thus lasers are being used in heat treating of ferrous alloys, surface melting and alloying, chemical vapor deposition, ablative shaping, and hot machining.
