Laser drilling processing examples:
Drilling is known as being done with needles or punch tools. However, needles and punch tools can be inefficient and tedious. Punch tools and needles are handheld or achieved by a machine requiring manual production. The production line moves slower than the automated style of laser drilling. Moreover, not only is the manual process tedious, but drilling this way can cause accidental errors or cause breakage in the rest of the part. Using punch tools and needles applies force to the whole component, which causes breakage or weakening.
Additionally, inaccurate results can occur from tool wear/degradation. Mitigating that risk requires preventative maintenance measures such as coolant, cleaning, and spare tooling. These measures all bear additional cost with a compounding concern of production downtime. Laser drilling in comparison is a consumable free operation with assured repeatable performance.
Laser drilling utilizes an extremely thin and precise laser beam, offering a non-contact, highly repeatable method of attaining these holes. It only hits the target point without any aftershock to the rest of the material. It’s optimal for all drilling needs—from sensitive materials like film to strong materials like metal.
Laser drilling is particularly useful in industries with sensitive products, like the medical device and semiconductor industries. These industries are known to have parts that are easily breakable, very small or thin, or have especially harmful consequences if contaminated.
