Abstract

Laser beam cutting and drilling using pulsed CO2- and Nd:YAG-laser systems is a very well-known and established industrial technique. Short pulsed lasers such as copper vapour lasers (CVL) have shown a potential in achieving precision machining (accurate circular drill holes, narrow kerf-widths, small heat affected zones) due to its high pulse power, high repetition rate, and good focusability.1
