It focuses a certain power of laser on the processed object so that the laser interacts with the object to heat, melt or vaporize the processed material to achieve the processing purpose. It's a type of laser beam machining (LBM). At present, laser micromachining applications in the laser manufacturing industry mainly include laser cutting, laser marking, laser welding, laser engraving, laser surface treatment, and laser 3D printing.

                                                                  Laser Cutting

                                                                  Principle: Use a focused high-power density laser beam to irradiate the workpiece to quickly melt, vaporize, ablate or reach the ignition point of the irradiated material. At the same time, the molten material is blown away by the high-speed airflow coaxial with the beam to cut the workpiece.

                                                                  Features: High cutting speed, smooth and beautiful surface, one-time processing, small workpiece deformation, no tool wear, low cleaning pollution, can process metal, non-metal and non-metal composite materials, leather, wood, fiber, etc., suitable for car body thickness fine cutting of sealed devices such as boards, auto parts, lithium batteries, pacemakers, sealed relays, and various devices that do not allow welding pollution and deformation.

                                                                  Laser Marking

                                                                  Principle: Use high-energy density laser to locally irradiate the workpiece to vaporize the surface material or cause a chemical reaction of color change, thereby leaving a permanent mark.

                                                                  Features: It's non-contact processing and can be marked on any special-shaped surface.

                                                                  Principle: Use high-energy-density laser beam radiation to heat the surface of the workpiece, and the surface heat diffuses into the interior through heat conduction. By controlling the width, energy, peak power and repetition frequency of the laser pulse, the workpiece is melted to form a specific molten pool.

                                                                  Features: Weldability is reduced, not affected by magnetic fields, small space restrictions, no electrode pollution, suitable for automatic high-speed welding, can weld metals of different properties, can work in enclosed spaces, suitable for circular saw blades, acrylic, spring gaskets, copper plates for electronic parts, some metal mesh plates, iron plates, steel plates, phosphor bronze, bakelite, thin aluminum alloys, quartz glass, silicon rubber, alumina ceramic sheets below 1mm, titanium alloys used in the aerospace industry, etc.

                                                                  At present, the market share of fiber lasers is higher than that of solid-state lasers. The main reason is that fiber lasers are mainly used for high-power macro processing, and the market demand is consistent with the development stage of the manufacturing industry; solid-state lasers are mainly used for laser micromachining, although the laser micromachining market is in a rapid development stage. However, the current market capacity is smaller than the micromachining market capacity, but high-precision manufacturing such as wearable devices, semiconductor chips, medical care, and new energy still needs to rely on laser micromachining.

                                                                  Although various types of laser machines focus on different industrial applications, and the market demand for downstream applications is quite different, there are certain differences in their market scales. However, as the global industrial laser machine market continues to grow, the application of laser micromachining in the industrial and consumer sectors will continue to increase in the future.

                                                                  What Are You Waiting For?
