Lasers in Manufacturing 2009 conference stronger than ever
Despite the unfavourable economic conditions, the International Conference on Lasers in Manufacturing (LiM) 2009, which is being held as a part of the World of Photonics Congress, will be busier than ever, according to the organizers.
Almost 200 presentations will feature the latest results in this field, and LiM general chair Andreas Ostendorf is convinced that the event will set important milestones in the future direction of laser materials processing.
Keynote presentations at LiM 2009 will focus on new laser processes in the fields of nanotechnology and material modifications, along with the latest developments from TRUMPF.
Further invited presentations over the four-day conference will address two topics: high-power laser applications in macro processing, and ultraprecise micro/nanoprocessing developments. In addition, the final results of the Fuelas project investigating laser-guided arc welding of high-strength steels will be presented.
