"Each diamond-grinding machine costs about $1 million. It's not unusual to need seven or eight of those machines to make one part. If we can machine this part using a single laser-assisted machining .

For example, in micro machining of H13 mold steel (42 HRC), researchers have been able to reduce cutting force by as much as 56%. Researchers say predictive models for temperature and ... in hardened ...

Atmospheric conditions have specific and contrasted influence on the laser-assisted yield of different ... correlations are observed in the case of temperature. Conversely, water vapour volume ...

Laser-assisted machining (LAM) hard, brittle materials, such as semiconductors and ceramics, utilizes a laser to heat an area to soften it before it is machined. The rest of the work piece is not ...

Despite their prevalent use in patient treatment, to many, using lasers as surgical tools can seem like something out of science fiction. However, laser-assisted surgery is now a reality and marks ...
