Presented at ICALEO 2013
Over the last decade, several studies have attempted to develop thermal models for analyzing the selective laser melting process with a vision to predict thermal stresses, microstructures and resulting mechanical properties of manufactured products. While a holistic model addressing all involved phenomena is yet to emerge, the existing partial models have already become computationally heavy. This is observed to go ha...$28.00

The physical mechanisms occurring during laser metal cutting are widely studied with the aim to optimize the cutting process by acting on the operating parameters, in order to remove or reduce cutting defects such as striations and dross.
During cutting, the laser beam heats up and melts the workpiece, while an intense gas jet ...$28.00

Parameter Tolerance Evaluation When Laser Cutting in Decommissioning Applications.
Authors:
Paul Hilton, TWI Ltd.; Great Abington, Cambridge Great Britain
Presented at ICALEO 2013
In conventional laser cutting it is well known that in order to maintain high quality edges, low heat affected zones and high cutting speeds, high tolerances have to be maintained on many of the parameters used. In particular, nozzle stand-off distances have to be small and kept constant, if good cut quality is to be maintained in plate and tube cutting. Recently, a potential application of laser cutting has arisen in a sector where the resulting cut quality is not important; that of decommissioning. In nuclear enviro...$28.00

This study aims to contribute to a better understanding of the cut surface quality difference between a laser with 1 micron wavelength (fiber or disc laser) and a 10.6 microns CO2 laser for laser fusion cutting of thick steel plates. Laser cutting of SUS304 stainless steel with thicknesses of 3, 5 and 8 mm was performed with a multimode fiber laser and a CO2 laser with the same power and...$28.00

In laser cutting the cut quality strongly depends on the removal of the molten material from the cutting kerf. The physical properties of the molten layer, which are temperature dependent, and the gas flow of the assist gas inside the cutting kerf are the main factors influencing the melt removal. Therefore the temperature d...$28.00

Usually when cutting thicker material we need higher power laser during laser cutting. If we use a saw to cut the situation will be different. In this paper we report a novel technology for thick glass cutting with a small power laser saw. The laser saw is made of 532nm green laser with long pulse width 1ms. It is ...$28.00
