Abstract

Micro machining using ultra short laser pulses renders high ablation quality along with superb precision. Due to a very short interaction time in combination with high power densities various applications such as cutting, patterning, marking etc. may be carried out on a wide range of materials from brittle to ductile. Implementing suitable laser sources along and its periphery in high-throughput industrial machinery is a key for efficient production facilities.
