2. Laser drilling - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Laser_drilling

   Laser drilling is the process of creating thru-holes, referred to as “popped” holes or “percussion drilled” holes, by repeatedly pulsing focused laser energy on a material. The diameter of these holes can be as small as 0.002” (~50 μm). If larger holes are required, the laser is moved around the circumference of the “popped” hole ...

3. Laser ablation - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Laser_ablation

   Laser ablation or photoablation (also called laser blasting[1][2][3]) is the process of removing material from a solid (or occasionally liquid) surface by irradiating it with a laser beam. At low laser flux, the material is heated by the absorbed laser energy and evaporates or sublimates. At high laser flux, the material is typically converted ...

4. Laser cutting - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Laser_cutting

   Laser cutting. Laser cutting is a technology that uses a laser to vaporize materials, resulting in a cut edge. While typically used for industrial manufacturing applications, it is now used by schools, small businesses, architecture, and hobbyists. Laser cutting works by directing the output of a high-power laser most commonly through optics.

5. Perforation - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Perforation

   Laser cutting can place many precise holes in a web. Laser perforations look similar in many respects to hot needle perforations. However, laser systems are expensive. The big advantage of laser perforation is the consistency of the hole size, compared to mechanical perforation. This is very important in modified atmosphere packaging for fresh ...

6. Diamond blade - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diamond_blade

   Diamond blade. A close-up of a diamond blade, showing worn metal behind the diamonds on the blade. A diamond blade is a saw blade which has diamonds fixed on its edge for cutting hard or abrasive materials. There are many types of diamond blade, and they have many uses, including cutting stone, concrete, asphalt, bricks, coal balls, glass, and ...

7. Laser beam machining - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Laser_beam_machining

   Laser beam machining (LBM) is a form of machining that uses heat directed from a laser beam. This process uses thermal energy to remove material from metallic or nonmetallic surfaces. The high frequency of monochromatic light will fall on the surface, thus heating, melting and vaporizing the material due to the impinge of photons (see Coulomb ...
