Laserline optics
Additive Manufacturing with Laserline diode The possibilities are far more than additive are very well
lasers offers innovative production opportunities powder supply and subtractive chipping: suited for additive
in many fields. With this method, layers from Lasers can also be used for welding and manufacturing.
identical materials are applied with great hardening in a twelve-axis milling machine, or
efficiency, e.g. stainless steel, aluminum, for 3D-structure at prototypes and in mass
titanium or even superalloys for aircraft con- production. A promising approach is the
struction. Thus, even complex manufacturing integration of the beam source into machines
processes can be realized based on a single tools, e.g. when uniting a laser with a 5-axis
beam source. milling machine.
