Presented at ICALEO 2012
Significant numbers of aero-engine parts are manufactured with Ni-based superalloys because of their excellent heat and corrosion resistant properties. Weld imperfections, such as those associated with bead geometry, sub-surface porosity and liquation cracking are of concern, given the high-performance service requirements of fabricated Ni-based components in the aerospace sec...$28.00

Stan Ream, EWI; Columbus OH USA
Presented at ICALEO 2012
At the 2010 ICALEO conference EWI introduced a new polygon scanner for laser paint stripping and coating removal. In the intervening two years this technology has advanced considerably. Newer versions of the polygon scanner have been designed and built, and this scanner technology has been used successfully with a variety of laser types to remove a wide range of coatings and paints. These EWI scanners have delivered the highest paint stripping efficiency, paint stripping productivity, and ease of effluent removal ever reported. Now that the fundamental capabilities of this scanner...$28.00

Presented at ICALEO 2012
Material exhibits various responses under laser illumination especially when ablation takes place. Some of the material responses are investigated to probe the progression of laser ablation. Our objective is to use the progression signal as a feedback for ablation process control. Often it is desired to be able to actively stop ablation when the target material is totally removed by the laser. This capability is even more beneficial for selective ablation of multi-layer composite ...$28.00

Presented at ICALEO 2012
Pulsed fiber lasers are being extensively used for micromachining applications on a very broad range of metallic materials. End user requirements can vary greatly based on whether the parts are functional such as mould tools or just provide deep engraved alphanumeric marking. Material removal rates and residual surface quality are greatly affected by the laser pulse parameters and the optical arrangements used. This study reviews the ef...$28.00
