Laser Micromachining

This course is organised in collaboration with the EMPA Academy. The usual FSRM discounts do not apply to this course.

Over the last decades, and thanks to recent progress in short-pulse lasers, laser processes are becoming ubiquitous in micro-scale manufacturing. The course objective will be to give an introduction to the use of lasers in various fields of micro-manufacturing, including cutting, ablation and additive/transformative processes. At the end of the course, participants will have 1/ learned what micromanufacturing operations can be done with lasers, 2/ acquired the knowledge to select an appropriate laser for their applications, and 3/ developed a basic knowledge for implementing a laser micro-manufacturing process.
