Laser Processing Applications

As part of our ongoing commitment to providing valuable and informative insight into the capabilities of Fiber Lasers, we are constantly supplying new information into the innovative applications potential of these industrial processing tools.

Buy an SPI Fiber Laser an investment in versatility

Whichever laser application you require, it can be delivered by an SPI Fiber Laser. Why buy two or more different products when you can buy one product which can meet all of your needs – a product which is purpose built to drill, engrave, mark, clean, cut, weld and ablate, plus even more. With an SPI laser investment, you buy with the confidence of knowing the product is high quality, versatile, and flexible; a product which can be used for a wide variety of purposes, even ones we haven’t mentioned here. Buy an SPI laser with confidence and future proof your business today.

Marking

Perhaps one of the most versatile properties of a Pulsed Fiber Laser is its ability to mark multiple types of material from ceramics. through to plastics and metals. Whether you are looking for a simple black mark or a variety of coloured marks, an SPI Laser is the tool of choice for thousands of industrial manufacturers across the globe.

Cutting

Whether you are looking for precision cutting of fine materials or high output industrial process applications, our range of Pulsed and high power CW Fiber Lasers are extremely adept at cutting a variety of materials and thicknesses.

Welding

Regardless of the material, thickness, or dissimilar metals, our Lasers have the inbuilt versatility to weld everything from fuel cells and batteries, through to fine wires for medical device manufacture.

Drilling

This process changes dramatically depending on the thickness of material, size of hole and the number of holes to be drilled.

Engraving

Capable of light to deep engraving our Lasers can be used to engrave all metals and industrial ceramics.

Ablation

Precision layer removal from metals and industrial compounds such as elements used within electronic products.

Additive Manufacturing

Many rapid manufacturing processes use industrial Lasers as an energy source. Our Fiber Lasers are an integral element of many metal powder processes.

Cleaning

These applications typically use high repetition rates and short pulses with high peak powers. The intention is to remove surface debris and contaminated layers without damaging the substrate materials.
