사설 카지노 is quite literally all around us, and has been for well over 5,000 years. So, it’s easy to overlook the fact that it’s a unique material, with a very useful combination of physical properties. The most obvious of these, and one of the most valuable, is that it’s transparent.

But, 사설 카지노 is also mechanically strong and relatively scratch resistant. Plus, it doesn’t react with most chemicals – even many strong acids. And, neither liquids nor gases can pass through it. 사설 카지노 is even biocompatible, which means that sterilized 사설 카지노 can be implanted safely into the human body.

For these reasons, and more, the use of 사설 카지노 has expanded far beyond the architectural and automobile windows we’re all familiar with into increasingly sophisticated products. It’s already widely used in medical devices, life sciences instrumentation, semiconductor tools, and consumer electronics. In the latter, it’s used for display screens in phones, laptops, tablets, and televisions.

The old ways can’t 사설 카지노 it

In many of these high technology applications, there is an ongoing push to make products ever more sophisticated, but also physically smaller and lighter. In terms of the use of 사설 카지노, this usually translates into a need for thinner pieces, often with curved edges or cutouts. An example of this might be a cellphone display screen that has a cutout for the Home Button.

But, this demand creates a challenge. That’s because traditional 사설 카지노 cutting methods — like good, old-fashioned mechanical cutting with a carbide tool, or waterjet cutting — can’t easily work with really thin pieces of 사설 카지노, or make these kinds of features – especially tight curves. At least not within the required cost and production time constraints. Even the usual laser 사설 카지노 cutting methods can’t do it cost-effectively at marketing enabling speeds.

Also, these older 사설 카지노 cutting methods produce very small cracks and residual stress in the 사설 카지노. This makes the 사설 카지노 very much more vulnerable to breakage during subsequent handling and use. Because, oddly, it turns out that when 사설 카지노 breaks, the crack almost always starts at the outer edge, even if the force is applied to it in the center.

Most 사설 카지노 cutting processes also usually create small chips and debris, and a cut edge that isn’t perfectly necessarily perpendicular to the 사설 카지노 surface. Various additional steps, like grinding or polishing the cut surface, may be required because of all this.

For the manufacturer, any additional processing steps required after 사설 카지노 represent increased production time and cost. Plus, they may have negative environmental impacts if they generate debris that’s hard to dispose of, or require lots of water for cleaning.

SmartCleave speeds precision laser 사설 카지노 cutting

A new cutting method called “filamentation” was developed specifically to meet the growing need for precision, stress-free, debris-free, freeform cutting of thin 사설 카지노. Filamentation requires anultrashort pulse (USP) laserbecause only these can generate the very high peak power this technique relies on.

In filamentation, the USP laser is focused into 사설 카지노 to create a line of microscopic voids (or filaments) which can go several millimeters deep. To make a continuous cut, the laser beam is moved relative to the 사설 카지노 in the desired pattern, and a series of very closely spaced filaments are produced. Depending upon the 사설 카지노 thickness and type, the part will either directly separate along the cut, or can be separated by heating it.

Filamentation enables high-speed cutting of curves and insets (without taper) into 사설 카지노 ranging from 0.05 mm to 10 mm in thickness. And, it even works chemically strengthened 사설 카지노, which is used extensively in touchscreen displays.

Coherent has developed our own form of filamentation 사설 카지노, calledS사설 카지노rtCleave.This method specifically utilizes the unique characteristics of ourHyperRapidseries USP lasers. One of these is the so-called “burst mode” operat사설 카지노, where the laser delivers a rapid-fire series of pulses. This ends up producing a gentler heating profile than a string of pulses having the same total energy, but delivered over a longer time period.

The benefits of SmartCleave are an increase in cutting speed by as much as a factor of two. It also produces holes which are smoother and straighter than other filamentation cutting methods. Additionally, SmartCleave leaves a cut edge which is free of microcracks, chips, and debris. All this improves production throughput and reduces costs by eliminating post-processing steps. And, it yields a mechanically stronger finished 사설 카지노 part.

The use of 사설 카지노 in high technology products is clearly going to continue, because there’s nothing else quite like it. And, SmartCleave cutting enables the production of 사설 카지노 components at the level of precision that these demanding new uses require.
