When considering laser services like cutting, etching, or welding don’t just buy a part; hire a design partner. You’ll reduce costs, speed up production and get a better product. There are many questions to consider when assessing what’s the value of a manufactured part or component to your end product, your business and your end…

When it comes to marking a surface with a pattern such as a barcode, image, or text, product manufacturers can often choose between laser marking and screen printing (also known as silk screening). Both methods have their advantages depending on the application. Screen-printing, for example, allows for virtually any color pattern (as well as multicolored…

With advances in laser processing techniques being unveiled everyday, here are 5 myths we’d like to debunk for you that may have kept you from thinking laser machining was the answer to your industrial cutting challenges. Myth #1: Laser cutting certain materials is new Laser cutting was first introduced in the 1960s and became widely…

The design of your microelectronics circuit is a huge factor in determining whether its ceramic substrate can be laser cut. Here are some factors to consider as you design. Almost every week it happens — an electronics component manufacturer asks if we can cut the ceramic substrate of a microelectronics circuit they have already designed.…

Laser welding is much cleaner than conventional arc or Tig welding, and therefore helps risk of contamination. It’s also more precise, easier to automate, and provides for bonding of much thinner metals, and provides for much greater tensile and bending strength. If arc welding is typically part of your product manufacturing process you may wish to…

Here are 3 Simple Reasons the Laser is King Over DIE Cutting You see, the thing about laser cutting is, well, it’s not just one thing – unless we’re referring to the monochromatic, coherent, collimated power surge generated by the light beam itself – but let’s not delve into a physics lesson here. We might find…
