Nuburu's latest AI-1500 laser offers 1.5kW of power (Image: Nuburu)
Nuburu’s total funding is now nearly $50 million, and will be used to accelerate the development of its high-brightness AI Series
Greg Blackman speaks to two researchers who presented at the LANE conference on different aspects of laser welding
The new panel pulls a thin layer of water out of the reservoir directly onto the solar absorber surface for heating and evaporation.
The surfaces could be used to provide clean drinking water in developing countries

The work aims to reduce the 3D printing time and costs of aircraft components by using larger layer thicknesses
This new laser aligns to welding requirements for e-mobility, energy storage, and general electrical interconnects consisting of dissimilar materials, such as copper and aluminum, and foil stacks that require precise control.
The photonics industry is currently undergoing a transition to a third generation of laser cutting technology, attendees to the AILU Industrial Laser Applications Symposium were told. Matthew Dale reports from the show
UK bicycle component manufacturer Hope Technology has replaced a CO2 laser on its shop floor with a Bystronic fibre laser
