Abstract

The study of laser cutting and piercing is focused on the use of lasers as a tool for material processing in various industries, including automotive, aerospace, and electronics. This study explores the physical principles of laser cutting and piercing, as well as the advantages and limitations of this technology. The laser cutting process involves using a high-powered laser beam to melt, burn, or vaporize a material, resulting in a precise cut. Laser piercing, on the other hand, involves using a focused laser beam to drill a hole in a material. One of the main advantages of laser cutting and piercing is its high precision, allowing for complex shapes and designs to be cut with minimal material waste. Additionally, the non-contact nature of the process reduces the risk of material deformation or damage. , there are also limitations to laser cutting and piercing, including the cost of the equipment and the limited thickness of materials that can be cut. Additionally, laser cutting can produce harmful fumes and requires proper safety measures to be taken.
