Abstract

There is no comnon denominator for non-traditional holemaking. Each process has its own unique capability. This document is concerned with the high-power Nd:YAG solid-state laser product as it is used in the material process industry. Economical comparisons and abilities to drill at shallow entry angles to a surface are discussed, and the range of hole sizes found to be practical for production laser applications are reviewed.
