Ukucutshungulwa kwe-laser kuwukusetshenziswa okuvame kakhulu kwezinhlelo ze-laser. Ngokomshini wokusebenzisana phakathi kwe-laser beam nezinto ezibonakalayo, ukucutshungulwa kwe-laser kungahlukaniswa ngokucutshungulwa kwe-laser thermal kanye nenqubo yokusabela kwe-photochemical. I-Laser thermal processing ukusetshenziswa kwe-laser beam phezu kwempahla ukukhiqiza imiphumela eshisayo ukuze kuqedelwe inqubo, okuhlanganisa ukusika kwe-laser, ukumaka nge-laser, ukubhola nge-laser, i-laser welding, ukuguqulwa kwendawo kanye ne-micromachining.
Ngezici ezine ezinkulu zokukhanya okuphezulu, ukuqondisa okuphezulu, i-monochromaticity ephezulu nokuhambisana okuphezulu, i-laser ilethe izici ezithile ukuthi ezinye izindlela zokucubungula azitholakali. Njengoba ukucutshungulwa kwe-laser kungokuthintwa, akukho mthelela oqondile ku-workpiece, akukho ukuwohloka komshini. Ukucubungula i-Laser akukho "ithuluzi" eliguga futhi lidabukile, awekho "amandla okusika" asebenza kucezu lokusebenza. Ekucutshungulweni kwe-laser, ugongolo lwe-laser olunamandla amakhulu, isivinini sokucubungula, ukucutshungulwa kuyindawo yasendaweni, amasayithi angenawo ama-laser angenawo umthelela omncane noma omncane. amasistimu wokwenza ama-workpieces ayinkimbinkimbi. Ngakho-ke, i-laser iyindlela yokucubungula eguquguqukayo kakhulu.
Njengobuchwepheshe obuthuthukisiwe, ukucutshungulwa kwe-laser kusetshenziswe kabanzi ekwenzeni izindwangu nezingubo, izicathulo, izimpahla zesikhumba, izinto zikagesi, imikhiqizo yephepha, izinto zikagesi, amapulasitiki, i-aerospace, insimbi, ukupakisha, ukukhiqizwa kwemishini. Ukucutshungulwa kwe-laser kudlale indima ebaluleke kakhulu ekuthuthukiseni ikhwalithi yomkhiqizo, ukukhiqiza kwabasebenzi, ukuzenzekelayo, ukungangcolisi nokunciphisa ukusetshenziswa kwezinto ezibonakalayo.
Ingubo yesikhumba eqoshwa nge-laser nokushaya ngesibhakela
