  • Publication number: 20230078751
    Abstract: A method for volume heat treating a part having an external surface delimiting its volume, the method comprising the following steps: a. providing a laser source; b. providing the part; c. providing support means for supporting the part; d. placing said part so that it is held in position by said support means; and e. irradiating with the laser source at least one segment of the external surface of the part with a laser exposure power and duration to obtain a temperature rise in essentially the entire volume of the part.

  • Publication number: 20210205922
    Abstract: A laser machining device includes a generator and a director to generate and to direct, respectively, a gas stream to an area lying above a machining support in such a way as to create a suction effect that entrains machining dust away from said machining support.
