LIA Handbook of Laser Materials Processing

Published by the Laser Institute of America, The LIA Handbook of Laser Materials Processing is a working reference source designed to help solve problems by providing extensive data on procedures, processes, equipment, processing systems and processing results.

The basic information about the various laser materials processing technologies presented here can help you determine:

- Their potential effectiveness for your application.

- Their capabilities and limitations.

- Their requirements.

- The numerical values for the laser parameters.

- The numerical values for the processing results (i.e., penetration depth and processing rates for specified conditions of irradiation).
