Thanks to our unique laser developments, we are now able to mill tools with complicated and detailed shapes that are difficult or impossible to implement with traditional technologies. Laser machining enables extreme precision, which is essential for creating detailed and precise tools.

High precision: Laser milling enables material removal with micrometer precision, making it excellent for creating unique and complex shapes, for example for custom tools.

Non-contact machining: Since the laser beam works without contact, mechanical wear of the tools can be avoided, which results in a longer service life and does not cause deformation of the workpiece.

Flexible material processing: Laser milling technology is suitable for processing different materials, be it metal, plastic or composite material, so it offers a wide range of applications.

Fast and efficient: Laser machining can be faster than traditional methods, which means time and cost savings in the manufacturing process.

Creation of complex patterns: The laser can easily create complex patterns and shapes that are difficult or impossible to achieve with traditional milling technologies.

The cost-effectiveness of laser technology is due to several factors

Environmentally friendly process

The removal of rust with a laser is a modern and effective technological solution that is used in both industrial and historic preservation areas. A high-intensity, concentrated beam of laser light emits energy that removes rust from metal surfaces without damaging the material being cleaned.

During the development, we also took into account the cleaning of larger workpieces, so our 1D laser machine can be prepared, with which we can easily clean complex and large parts. The laser unit can be easily placed on a robot arm and can be installed in a production line, but it can also be controlled manually.

An environmentally friendly method, as it does not require chemicals and minimizes the generation of waste.

It provides an energy-saving solution, as its consumption is much more favorable than that of traditional technologies.

Rust removal is a fast and precise automated process that excludes the possibility of human error.

The use of laser technology in cable stripping is revolutionizing this critical process, especially where precision machining of cables is essential. Laser cable stripping allows the insulation layers to be removed layer by layer without damaging the inner conductors.

Advantages

Layer by Layer Removal
The laser process precisely removes the insulation layers, one by one, with minimal heat stress, which avoids damage to the cable.
Protection of Conductive Fibers
The laser beam can be precisely focused so that only the insulating material is removed, protecting the conductive fibers from damage.
Perfect Precision
Laser stripping allows for extremely precise and consistent work, which is critical in delicate wiring jobs such as aerospace, medical, and microelectronics. Human error can also be excluded, as the process is fully automated.
Without Harmful Chemicals
Laser peeling is a clean and environmentally friendly method, as it does not require chemicals or mechanical devices that could harm the environment or health. In addition to all this, since it is a non-contact process, there is no tool wear.

Laser surface texturing (LST) is a process in which a laser beam creates fine patterns or structures on the surface of a material.

Lasers are capable of creating microscopic patterns with a resolution of even nanometers. This enables the creation of complex, detailed structures that would be difficult or impossible to implement with mechanical means. With the right materials and settings, we can even achieve colors with laser technology.
Since the laser beam works without contact, the chance of mechanical damage to the surface is minimal. This is important for materials that are prone to deformation or sensitive to physical influences. Laser surface patterning is extremely fast and can be automated, so patterning the surface of a large amount of products can be easily implemented.

Laser patterning can be used not only for aesthetic purposes, but also to improve functional properties, such as wear resistance, friction characteristics, wetting behavior or biocompatibility (for example, in the case of implants).

Areas of application

Automotive and machinery industry:
Laser texturing is used on friction surfaces to reduce the coefficient of friction and improve the distribution of lubricants. In the automotive industry, for example, it is used to form the surface structures of the internal parts of engines (pistons, cylinders).

Medical devices:
In the case of medical implants, laser-created patterns improve biocompatibility, helping tissues integrate more quickly with the implants. In addition, the surface treatment helps to reduce the adhesion of bacteria.

Electronics industry:
Laser patterning can be used to create very fine circuits on various materials, such as the surface of semiconductors. Laser technology is key to the miniaturization of electronic components.

Aesthetics and fashion industry:
With the help of lasers, unique patterns can be created on metal, leather, glass or textile surfaces, which enables the creation of unique design elements.

Aerospace industry:
Here, laser surface treatment is primarily used to improve the durability and frictional properties of aircraft components. The technology contributes to increasing the lifetime of components and reducing maintenance requirements.

Types of surface patterns that can be created

Microgrooves and microbumps:
These patterns are often used to provide better adhesion or lubrication to surfaces, such as bearings.

Precise holes and perforations:
Lasers are capable of making very fine holes and perforations, which are used for filters, sieves, or other systems that allow air or liquid to pass through.

Nanostructures:
Lasers allow the creation of nanoscale structures with special optical or biological functions.

Precision laser titanium milling offers several advantages over traditional milling methods, particularly when working with titanium, which is known for being difficult to machine.

Greater precision and accuracy

It enables extremely fine and precise milling, often with tolerances in the range of microns. This is better than conventional milling, which can struggle to maintain such tight tolerances, especially for hard materials like titanium.

Minimal tool wear

In conventional milling, cutting tools wear out quickly when machining titanium due to its strength and hardness. Non-contact, eliminates physical wear of cutting tools, reduces tool change downtime and related costs.

Complex geometries

Laser milling can create complex and highly detailed geometries that are difficult or impossible to achieve with conventional milling. It is excellent for producing complex shapes, internal features or undercuts that require advanced techniques.

Faster processing times

It often operates at higher speeds than conventional mechanical milling, especially when machining thin layers of material. The speed and efficiency of laser milling is particularly beneficial in high volume or mass production environments.

Reduced heat effect zone

Despite the high temperatures, precision lasers can focus heat into extremely small areas, reducing the heat-affected zone around the milled area. Conventional milling produces heat through friction, which can cause deformation or affect the properties of the material over time, especially in the case of titanium.

Less material waste

Laser milling is extremely precise and can remove material in very thin layers, minimizing waste. Conventional milling often requires a larger cut, resulting in more waste, which is especially expensive when working with expensive materials such as titanium.

No physical force or vibration

Traditional milling exerts considerable force on the material, which can distort especially delicate parts. Laser milling is a non-contact process that eliminates mechanical stress, vibration or force that can affect the structural integrity of the part.

Better surface treatment

Lasers can produce a smoother surface compared to traditional cutting tools, reducing post-processing such as grinding or polishing that is often required in traditional milling.

Automation and flexibility

Laser milling systems are easy to program and integrate with CAD/CAM software, allowing for greater automation and flexibility in manufacturing.

Reduced risk of contamination

Because lasers do not require cutting fluid or direct contact, there is less risk of contamination on the titanium surface. Conventional milling often requires cutting fluid, which can cause contamination or require additional cleaning steps.

Scalability

Laser milling can be easily scaled for a variety of applications, from prototyping to large-scale production, with minimal modifications. Traditional milling can require significant retooling and setup changes to achieve the same scalability.

These advantages make precision laser titanium milling particularly useful in high-performance industries such as aerospace, medical devices and automotive, where precision, material integrity and efficiency are key.

Thanks to the development of our multifunctional laser devices, they are able to perform multiple tasks with a single device, such as milling and cleaning. This is a big step forward in industrial processes, as it provides both cost-effectiveness and flexibility in various manufacturing and maintenance tasks.

Advantages of multifunctional laser equipment

Cost effectiveness
Since a single piece of equipment can perform several tasks, there is no need for several different machines, reducing acquisition and maintenance costs.

Flexibility
The tools easily perform various tasks such as milling and cleaning, so they can quickly adapt to production needs.

Test request form

Smaller space requirement
Since one piece of equipment performs more functions, it takes up less space on production lines, which is especially beneficial in tighter production environments.

Advantages of laser milling and cleaning on aluminum surfaces

Precision
The fine precision of the laser beam allows the creation of small details and complex patterns on aluminum surfaces, while working without contact, thus avoiding deformation of the material and a cleaning process after the milling process.

Topology tracking
Laser cleaning precisely follows the contour of the surface, even if it is complicated or difficult to access. During the milling process, the layers are gradually and precisely removed, preserving the integrity of the surface.

Minimization of thermal effects
Laser technology works with minimal heat, which is especially important for aluminum, as this material is sensitive to heat-induced deformation.

Laser rust removal is a non-contact process, during which we do not have to worry about damaging the material. It can be fully automated and combined with other technologies, e.g. robotics. The other option is the 1D laser cleaner, which can even be used with manual control.

The laser process does not require physical contact with the material, which reduces the risk of damage or deformation of the surface. Since no mechanical tools are used, the laser method also minimizes the wear on the surface and, as a result, tool wear does not occur, as with traditional physical cleaning.

Traditional rust removal often requires chemicals that can damage the environment and be dangerous for people, on the other hand, laser technology is completely chemical-free, so it provides users with an environmentally friendly solution. Due to increasingly strict environmental protection rules, it is advisable to think about the technologies we use, since laser technology not only provides the above, but also consumes little energy, which contributes to cost reduction and protects human health and the environment.

The laser cleaning processes themselves have many advantages, among them the laser beams are extremely precise and easily follow the topology of the metal surface, be it smooth or complex. This allows rust to be removed even from small, hard-to-reach areas. After laser cleaning, the surface is metallic clean, ready for any further processing such as painting, coating or welding. Thanks to our development, our tools are multifunctional, which means that after cleaning, we can also ensure better adhesion of the coatings with one surface treatment. Therefore, there is no need for further post-processing, which would be essential after traditional methods.

Laser technology can be used perfectly in metalworking, industrial maintenance, the automotive industry and many other areas where a fast, efficient and environmentally friendly solution is needed for cleaning metal surfaces, but of course it can also be used on other surfaces.
