Precision power beams - an opportunity to experience the state-of-the-art
Tuesday 1 April 2008 at TWI, Great Abington.
Precision power beams are used increasingly in medical device manufacture and the electronics, aerospace and automotive sectors. Advantages include higher productivity, better quality and cost effectiveness. This event is a uniqueopportunity to explore the capabilities of advanced precision electron beam and laser beam facilities for joining, surface modification, deposition and materials processing.
