Change of dominant material properties in laser perforation process with high-energy lasers up to 120 kilowatt

Abstract In laser materials processing, energy losses due to reflection, heat conduction and thermal radiation play an important role. In this publication, we show that with increasing laser intensity, the energy lost within the sample becomes less important for metal perforation processes. We compa...
