ICALEO 2012 Presents the Latest in Laser Materials Processing Research
By Geoff Giordano Not only are lasers bridging worlds by offering solutions useful across the macro-, micro- and nanoprocessing spheres, but they are building a better world as vital components in the facilitation of green energy technologies. From beginning to end, the Laser Institute of America highlighted these themes in a broad-ranging program for the 31st […]
Laser Beam Welding with High Frequency
By Mathies Kraetzsch Copper is known for its excellent electrical properties that make it predestined for the production of cables and electrical connections. Aluminum, which is lighter and cheaper than copper, also provides very good electrical properties. The Fraunhofer IWS Dresden has set the task to join both materials in a professional and long-lasting way. […]
