LASER DICING OF GLASS
DESCRIPTION, INNOVATION AND ADVANTAGES
One of the most material-efficient and energy-efficient glass cutting techniques is to locally weaken the material along the cutting path by generating cracks or material modifications and then separating sheets by applying thermal or mechanical load. We demonstrate the possibility to cut glasses up to 5 mm thickness by applying laser-induced modifications. The cutting process can offer high cutting efficiency, where 1 mm thick glass sheet can be cut with a speed of 240 mm/s.
CURRENT STAGE OF DEVELOPMENT
Technology validated in small series production.
STATUS OF INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS
In–house know-how.
TYPE AND ROLE OF PARTNER SOUGHT
Hi-tech photonics companies.
