研究目的
Investigating the use of ultrashort laser pulses for the autonomous production of highly accurate metallic and diamond tools, focusing on small and micro tools.
研究成果
Ultrashort laser pulses are highly suitable for manufacturing small and micro tools with high accuracy, enabling autonomous production without human interaction. The technology extends the product portfolio by processing any type of ultrahard material and allows for the coating of metallic-based tools, demonstrating good adhesion and uniformity.
研究不足
Laser processing cannot match the volume removal rates of conventional technologies for large tools. The study concentrates on small and micro tools where laser processing's advantages are more pronounced.
