This project, sent in by [Henk], goes through a few different ways to make a solder stencil using a vinyl cutter, a CO2 laser, and a fiber laser. The project starts with identifying a method to ...

The range of materials suitable for even the cheapest laser cutter is part of what makes them such versatile and desirable tools. As long as you temper your expectations, there’s plenty of ...

Laser ultrasonic detection experiments were conducted for surface defects of different depths, and multiple sets of ultrasonic signal waveform were collected, and several feature vectors such as ...

Use of a flux-vector drive was key in fielding a photolithography system that employs an excimer laser. Cymer Inc., in San Diego, devised its next-generation system, the NanoLith 7000, with a 20-W ...
