Abstract

Recent advances in laser technology have resulted in the development of multi-kilowatt lasers which have been engineered for industrial applications. This paper summarizes some of these technological developments, and describes the characteristics of the laser systems. Emphasis has been placed on the description of multi-kilowatt processing systems which have been delivered to industry.
