Professor Duncan Hand discusses the results of CIM-Laser, a collaboration between five UK universities that has supported the country’s uptake of laser-based manufacturing over the past five years
Scientists have used an ultrafast laser system to successfully weld optical materials such as quartz, borosilicate glass and even sapphire to metals including aluminium, titanium and stainless steel
With new fibre delivery options now available, along with advances in scanning solutions, ultrafast lasers are becoming a much more practical tool for industrial machining, as Rachel Berkowitz discovers
