Its advantages are obvious: due to the fibre design the beam quality is close to perfect, hence best possible focus ability even with very long operating…
The prototype consisting of a laser head and electronics is extremely compact and weighs only 187 g. The laser system can be used in a so called “Laser Induced…
A team of engineers and artists working at the University of Washington's Solheim Rapid Manufacturing Laboratory has developed a way to create glass objects…
At Stand 4211 in Hall 4 of Fakuma (October 13 – 17, 2009, Messe Friedrichshafen), the Fraunhofer ILT will be presenting a novel, compact and industry-ready…
The same principle applies when cutting silicon blocks to make wafers for solar cells. You need a special slicing tool to produce paper-thin wafers from…
This trend will require manufacturers to expand their production capacity while maintaining superlative levels of quality and economic efficiency. Companies…
Whether in medicine, electronics, aerospace or solar technology, thin coatings can be removed, fiber-reinforced plastics drilled and ceramic components'…
The new laser power meter, tested at a U.S. Air Force base last week, will be used to measure the light emitted by 10-kilowatt (kW) laser systems. Light…
Scientists at Rice University have found a simple way to create basic elements for aircraft, flat-screen TVs, electronics and other products that incorporate…
The ability to create tiny patterns is essential to the fabrication of computer chips and many other current and potential applications of nanotechnology. Yet,…
The OSEC-NXT membrane-type electrolysis system from Siemens offers swimming pool operators a safe, reliable and economically efficient alternative to chlorine…
Engineers at the University of Leicester have invented a new technique in the manufacture of ceramics that has the potential to save the industry time and…
The laser beam moves over the slightly overlapping sheets and melts them in a spot measuring several tenths of a millimeter, producing a so called full…
Siemens and E.ON Kraftwerke are to build a pilot CO2 capture plant at the E.ON power plant Staudinger in Grosskrotzenburg near Hanau. The two companies are…
Because there has been no economically viable technology to remove water from ultrafine coal slurries, the ultrafine particles that are the residue of the coal…
Two common strains of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus, commonly known as MRSA, were virtually eradicated in the laboratory by exposing them to a…
