Fraunhofer IPT specializes in using industrially available laser technology and adapting it individually for existing production lines and processes. The laser systems are integrated into the production chains in terms of design and control technology and the processes are optimized according to the customer's requirements. The individual process design allows companies to flexibly design production and quickly and easily change over for different product variants. In order for laser systems to be used optimally and profitably in manufacturing companies, an in-depth understanding of processes and technology is required, as demonstrated by Fraunhofer IPT.
The laser beam as a tool
The integration of a laser module into existing manufacturing processes makes sense if the workpiece is to be processed locally, at a defined point. We also use laser technology for the processing of high-performance materials. High-performance materials such as hard metals or fiber-reinforced plastics can be processed with virtually no tool wear.
