  • The laser cutting process which is flexible and rapid usually provides a better result in cutting of flexible printed circuit boards (FPCB). However, circuit-short by the re-deposition of debris from laser ablation or its heat affect zone (HAZ) on the cutting surfaces can be a problem. A laser cutting process of FPCB in the presence of liquid can minimize these negative effects. The temperature distribution of copper and polymer parts of FPCB was analyzed with numerical simulation and the experimental results were presented to evaluate this process. Generally, laser cutting under liquid has advantages of less re-deposition of carbides and less HAZ on the cutting edges. However, bubble generation and laser beam control through the liquid media should be considered carefully to obtain a successful result.

  • In this paper, we propose a knowledge-based method for generating CNC torch path for laser cutting of the outlines of planar shapes. The proposed method consists of two main phases: laser cutting knowledge construction and CNC torch path generation using the knowledge. In the first phase, cutting experiments are conducted on various operating parameters, and then empirical data are stored and analyzed to make up the knowledge of laser cutting. With this knowledge, we can inquire what a kerf width is for specific operating parameters. In the second phase, using the knowledge of laser cutting, CNC torch path is generated for cutting the outlines of the given planar shapes. This phase is basically based on the offset generation of each outline by a sequence of arc splines, where the offset distance is the same as the half of the kerf width determined from the constructed knowledge. The proposed method based on laser cutting knowledge makes full use of arc interpolators in CNC torch path generation. The method can efficiently reduce the number of path segments while keeping the torch path within the desired accuracy.

  • 최근 레이저를 이용하여 전자 소자 및 모듈을 절단하기 위한 많은 연구가 진행되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 레이저를 이용하여 LED 모듈을 초고속 절단하기 위한 기초 연구를 수행하였다. 특히 기존의 다이싱(dicing) saw의 절단 속도를 훨씬 능가하는 100 mm/s의 초고속 레이저 절단의 가능성을 검토하였다. 이를 위하여 LED 모듈의 구성 재료인 copper/ceramic 및 silicone/ceramic 이종 복합 기판을 제작하여 레이저 절단 후, 절단면의 표면 특성, 표면조도, 굽힘 강도를 다이싱 saw를 이용하여 절단한 샘플과 비교하였다. 복합 기판에 대한 최적의 레이저 절단 조건을 찾기 위하여, 세라믹 및 구리 단일 기판의 레이저 절단을 통하여 다양한 레이저 공정 조건들에 대한 영향 검토하였다. 절단면의 표면 특성이 가장 좋은 최적의 레이저 절단 조건은 Ar 보조 가스의 사용, 높은 레이저 파워 및 높은 보조 가스의 압력이었다. Copper/ceramic 및 silicone/ceramic 이종 복합 기판에 대하여 레이저 절단과 다이싱 saw로 절단한 기판의 절단면을 비교한 결과, 레이저로 절단된 기판이 다이싱 saw 절단에 비하여 표면이 거칠고 표면 특성이 약간 나쁘다. 레이저 절단면의 평균 표면조도는 약 $9{\mu}m$ 이며, 다이싱 saw로 절단된 절단면의 표면조도는 약 $4{\mu}m$ 이었다. 그러나 다이싱 절단의 절단 속도(3 mm/s)를 고려하면 레이저 절단면의 표면 morphology가 비교적 균일하고, 표면조도도 다이싱 절단의 경우와 큰 차이가 없기 때문에 어느 정도 만족할 만한 결과를 얻었다고 판단된다. 또한 레이저 절단된 기판의 굽힘 강도가 다이싱으로 절단된 기판의 굽힘 강도보다 동등하거나 약간 열세이었다. 그러나 향후 레이저의 절단 조건이 좀 더 최적화된다면 LED 모듈의 초고속 레이저 절단이 가능할 것으로 판단된다.

  • A non-symmetric laser beam was used for cutting a thin glass substrate and its effect was investigated. In laser cutting of brittle materials, controlling crack initiation on the surface is crucial; however, it is difficult to ensure that crack propagation occurs according to a designed laser path. A lot of deviation in crack propagation, especially at the edge of the substrate, is usually observed. A non-symmetric laser beam generates a non-uniform energy distribution, which enhances directional crack propagation. A 20-W pulsed YAG laser was used for cutting a thin glass substrate. Parametric analysis was carried out and the crack control of the non-symmetric laser beam was improved. A theoretical model was presented and the limitations of the proposed process were also discussed.

  • Laser cutting of thick diamond films is studied using a low-power(10 W) copper vapor laser. Due to the existence of the saturation depth in laser cutting, thick diamond films are not easily cut by low-power lasers. In this study, we have adopted a low thermalconductivity underlayer of alumina and a heating stage (up to 500$^{\circ}C$ in air) to prevent the laser energy from consuming-out and, in turn, enhance the cutting efficiency. Aspect ratio increases twice fromm 3.5 to 7 when the alumina underlayer used. Adopting a heating stage also increases aspect ratio and more than 10 is obtained at higher temperatures than 400$^{\circ}C$. These results show that thick diamond films can be cut, with low-power lasers, simply by modifying the thermal property of underlayer.

  • Laser cutting system uses a gas jet to remove the molten or varpozed material from the workpiece. The quality of the laser cut can be strongly influenced by the gas flow charac- teristics formed through the nozzle. Laser cutting experiments were carried out for SS41 and SUS 304 to investigate the relationship between cut quality and cutting pressure. The cutting speed, nozzle pressure and nozzle to workpiece distance were also considered. The cut specimens were inspected by various manners such as dross observation, surface roughness test and kerf width measurement. Based on the data of pressure measurement on workpiece and the results of cut surface inspection, the influence of the considered cutting conditions on cut quality could be evaluated. The results of this study will be valuable in planning the optimal laser cutting process and in designing the laser cutting nozzle.

  • This study deals with the quality and the optimum range of laser cutting process. Cold rolled steel sheets for automobile application were cut by a high power CO$_{2}$ laser system with beam quality of TEM$_{\infty}$ mode. Both process parameters such as travel speed and assist gas pressure, and quality factors were considered to optimize the laser cutting. It was revealed that the thinner the sheet thickness, the less effect of oxidation energy for contributing the cutting process. High speed photographs demonstrated that molten spot on the cut surface moved in a random and vigorous manner according to its viscosity and the flowing direction of assist gas, which resulted in so called striation. Laser cutting produced a very smooth surface of average roughness(Ra) about less than 1.5.mu.m at the optimum range. It was also shown that the characteristics of dross formation was influenced by the flowing durection of assist gas and the fluidity of molten metal drop..

  • This study deals with the laser cutting of stencil for the PCB. The most important aim of this study is to determine optimal conditions which make good-qualify stencil in Nd:YAG laser cutting. We made an experiment according to various variables (power. type of mask. gas pressure, cutting speed, and pulse width) and analyzed the cutting characteristics (surface roughness, kerf width. dross) . Each variable has optimal value for good-qualify cut edge under fixed condition. And neural network after learning experimental data with a million time iteration could predict surface roughness of cut edge under arbitrary condition approximately.

  • For nuclear decommissioning applications, a study was conducted to investigate the feasibility of using a laser for long-distance cutting in complex structures. Cutting tests were performed on stainless steel plates with thicknesses ranging from 10 mm to 30 mm at distances of 300 mm-700 mm from the laser head, using a laser power of 6 kW. Remarkably, the 10 mm and 20 mm thick stainless-steel plates were successfully cut at a distance of 700 mm from the head. Based on the trends observed in the results, it is anticipated that these thicknesses could also be cut at distances of approximately 1 m. Similarly, the 30 mm thick stainless-steel plate was effectively cut at a distance of 500 mm from the head. To evaluate the amount of secondary waste generated, the kerf width was measured. Due to the long-distance cutting, the average kerf width ranged from 6 mm to 16 mm. Despite the wider kerf width, long-distance cutting holds promise for efficiently handling hard-to-reach targets in nuclear decommissioning scenarios.
