Title
Produktivitätssteigerung bei der Laserpolitur: Zehnfache Erhöhung der Flächenrate beim Laserpolieren von gefrästen Stählen dank neuer Strahlprofile
Other Title
Productivity increase by laser polishing
Abstract
Today, the polish of many complex-shaped components goes back to time-consuming and costly manual polishing. Laser polishing is an alternative automated polishing method based on the melting of a thin surface layer and smoothing of the surface due to the surface tension. The research project "polieren10X" achieved ten times the productivity with laser polishing of machined steel surfaces by using new laser beam profiles.
