Laser Machining : A Case Study on Cut Parameters and Microstructural Changes

This book gives a detailed coverage on lasers, their applications in machining, a step by step direction on designing and making of a carbon-dioxide laser. It also gives the effects of lasers on materials and explains the causes of these effects and how optimization can be achieved to get the best possible cut parameters. With the gained knowledge, the reader can design a laser and even achieve this optimization.
