Laser Drilling

Our laser drilling solutions provide precise, high-speed drilling for a wide range of materials, from metals to ceramics. The process uses a focused laser beam to vaporize material, creating clean, accurate holes with minimal thermal impact. Ideal for industries requiring micro-drilling or high-density hole patterns, our laser drilling technology ensures consistency, reliability, and superior quality.
Laser drilling involves using a focused laser beam to create holes in materials with exceptional precision and control. This process is ideal for applications requiring small, intricate holes, such as in aerospace, electronics, and medical devices. Our laser drilling systems are designed for high efficiency and repeatability, ensuring that each hole is drilled to exact specifications with minimal material stress.

Laser drilling technology

advantages of laser drilling

Non-Contact Process

As a non-contact method, laser drilling minimizes the risk of material deformation or damage, ensuring high-quality results even on delicate or sensitive materials.

High Precision and Accuracy

Laser drilling offers exceptional precision, enabling the creation of micro-holes with tight tolerances. This is ideal for applications in industries such as aerospace, electronics, and medical devices where exacting standards are required.

Minimal Heat-Affected Zone (HAZ)

Laser drilling generates a focused beam of heat, resulting in a very small heat-affected zone. This reduces the risk of thermal distortion, especially when drilling small, intricate holes.

Material Versatility

Laser drilling is highly versatile and can be used on a wide variety of materials, including metals, ceramics, plastics, and composites, making it adaptable to various industries and applications.

types of laser drilling

Percussion Drilling

This method involves firing a series of laser pulses at the same spot to gradually drill through the material. Each pulse removes a small amount of material until the hole reaches the desired depth.

Single-Shot Drilling

A single laser pulse is used to drill a hole in the material in one shot. This method is fast and efficient but is typically limited to thinner materials.

Trepan Drilling

In this method, the laser beam moves in a circular path to cut around the perimeter of the hole, removing material in a manner similar to mechanical drilling. It allows for the creation of larger diameter holes with smooth edges.

Helical Drilling

The laser beam moves in a helical or spiral pattern to gradually remove material, forming a hole with high precision. This method provides excellent control over the hole’s dimensions and surface quality.

Hybrid laser drilling

It combines laser drilling with mechanical or waterjet processes to enhance precision and efficiency. It enables deeper holes, better material control, and improved surface quality, ideal for applications needing speed and accuracy in aerospace and manufacturing.
