LPKF ProtoLaser R4 with picosecond-fast laser pulses allows for extremely precise structuring of delicate substrates and cutting of hardened or fired technical substrates.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLaser Ablation with Practically No Heat Input\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn laser technology, the shorter the laser pulse, the lower the heat input into the surrounding material. With a picosecond laser, an important hurdle is over-come: there is practically no heat transfer; the targeted material evaporates immediately.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSpecialist for Micromaterial Processing\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis thermal effect is important for both the cutting and the surface processing of temperature-sensitive materials. The laser offers a very high pulse energy for cutting, for example, ceramic materials such as Al2O3 or GaN without discoloring the materials in the machining process. Thanks to the low heat input, no micro-cracks arise in the material.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePerfect Surfaces\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAlso for surface processing applications such as ablation of transparent thin films or detachment of metal layers on plastic foils, a very stable laser input at a low laser power is required. LPKF ProtoLaser R4 can easily straddle these diverging requirements. Standard FR4 and laminated HF materials can be processed just as well with this machine.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eEasy to Operate\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe high-precision software and the integrated cam-era are supported by the user-friendly LPKF CircuitPro software.
