Laser Cutting
Frequently used to make tiny features in medical devices and in electronics production operations, pulsed laser machining deposits very small, finite amounts of energy into a workpiece for extremely precise, reproducible material removal to a specified depth to ablate, cut, drill, machine or scribe a workpiece. It can create a variety of relief features, including grooves, slots and profiles, without actually cutting through the material.
How EDM Technology Is Adapting to the Realities of the Modern Workforce
The difference between a skilled operator and an inexperienced one is night and day. Machine builders are helping manufacturers remain productive and profitable by deploying technologies that close the skills gap between dedicated operators with extensive knowledge of just one process and today’s jack of all trades.
