Lasers Are Industry's Flexible Tools

Lasers are indispensible to today's mechanical engineering industry, thanks to their quality, flexibility and automation possibilities.

Lasers offer a wide array of materials-processing applications to the tool and mechanical engineering sector:

• Laser cutting and punching of components, contours and stencils

• Laser marking of raw materials and final products, environmentally friendly and durable marking, even of poorly accessible component surfaces

• Laser engraving and deep engraving for generating 3D structures via layered ablation, e.g. for injection molds or embossing tools

• Laser welding for durable and clean joined component edges

• Laser sintering for rapid prototyping (additive manufacturing, 3D printing) quick product development, small-scale production and manufacturing composite components

• Laser hardening targeted surface treatment for minimized wear

• Laser cleaning of industrial surfaces to remove organic and anorganic contaminations such as rust and oil
