Variables Used
Power Density of Laser Beam - (Measured in Watt per Square Meter) - Power Density of Laser Beam is the power per unit area of beam.
Laser Energy Output - (Measured in Watt) - Laser Energy Output is the output energy of the laser used in LBM.
Focal Length of Lens - (Measured in Meter) - Focal Length of Lens is determined when lens is focused at infinity. Lens focal length tells us angle of view and how much of scene will be captured. The longer focal length, a narrower angle of view.
Beam Divergence - (Measured in Radian) - Beam Divergence is the angle made by the beam incident on surface of metal.
Laser Beam Duration - (Measured in Second) - Laser Beam Duration is the time for which laser beam is incident on the work surface.
STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit
Laser Energy Output: 10.39 Watt --> 10.39 Watt No Conversion Required
Focal Length of Lens: 3 Meter --> 3 Meter No Conversion Required
Beam Divergence: 0.001232 Radian --> 0.001232 Radian No Conversion Required

How does Laser Beam Machining work ?

Laser (light amplification by stimulated emission of radiation) beam machining (LBM) utilises the energy from the coherent light beams called laser (light amplification by stimulated emission of radiation). The basic principle utilised in LBM is that under proper conditions light energy of a particular frequency is used to stimulate the electrons in an atom to emit additional light with exactly the same characteristics of the original light source.
