    This article presents investigations carried out on the generation 3D structures of TA6V or Inconel718. In order to generate 3D complex structure in laser cladding, it is necessary to study the possibility of building materials with a large overhung angle. This can be done by rotation of the substrate or of the nozzle. This article presents results on building structu...

    Presented at ICALEO 2007

    Direct metal deposition plays an important role in rapid manufacturing geometrically complicated, dense, near net shape components. A large number of parameters are involved in the deposition process. Its present development stagnates in its control. A good understanding of the laser material processing and a well designed controlling system are essential for the system reliability. This paper addresses the development of a linear model based generalized predictive control system ...

    Presented at ICALEO 2007

    For quality assurance in the manufacture of automotive parts, the integrity of the laser-beam welds joining steel parts must be monitored. A primary concern is to detect weld defects fast, reliably and cost-effectively. Therefore, a considerable number of on-line inspection systems have being developed to improve weld quality and reduce overall costs. All the systems, for monitoring the photonic emissions from the weld pool, adopt measurement schemes in which wired sensors output...

    Presented at ICALEO 2007

    High-power laser cutting is extensively used in many industrial applications. An important weakness of this process is the formation of striations (regular lines on the cut surface), which affect the quality of the surfaces produced. The elimination of striation is thus of considerable importance, since it could open up a variety of novel high-precision applications. This study pre...

    Reduction of Thermal Damage in FR-4 with Progressive Percussion Drilling
    Authors:
    Leonard Migliore, Coherent, Inc.; Santa Clara CA USA
    Presented at ICALEO 2007

    Glass-epoxy circuit boards (FR-4) may be cut with carbon dioxide lasers. This process is commonly used for separating individual circuits from a larger multi-circuit panel. The cutting process, however, generates substantial amounts of carbonaceous decomposition products, resulting in charring. Charring has the potential to create unwanted conduction paths and makes the edge cosmetically unattractive. Charring may be mitigated by a multipass cutting procedure using pulses spaced apart by several times their diameter. A series of passes w...
