Lasers cut precisely and without contact—ideal for surgery. The problem is that in hard tissues such as bone, they are too slow and do not cut deep enough. Researchers at the University of Basel have ...

Printed textiles are becoming increasingly popular, but cutting those large format prints hasn’t been as clean as companies would like. To solve that problem, Austrian printer Fahnen-Gärtner developed ...

Laser processes with dynamic beam shaping create stable joints even in challenging material combinations. Recent applications demonstrate how to eliminate filler materials while improving quality, ...

Ferda Canbaz demonstrates the depth of cuts that can be achieved with lasers when the energy profile of the laser beam is adjusted. Lasers cut precisely and without contact – ideal for surgery. The ...
