Example of processing a Φ40μm through hole in alumina.
This is an example of through-hole processing in alumina using a Φ40μm laser.
A multi-hole through processing with a diameter of 0.05 mm and a pitch of 0.5 mm was performed on a tantalum foil with a thickness of 0.05 mm.
In general, machining tantalum is difficult or time-consuming for fine processing, but our company has made it possible to achieve burr-free and highly round fine hole processing through laser machining.
This is an example of gradient processing on PET with a minimum width of 20μm to 100μm. Depth control is possible up to 0.5μm.
In laser processing, controlling the depth is difficult, and issues such as dross and smear caused by thermal effects occur, leading to irregular shapes in fine processing. Our company has solved these drawbacks of laser technology.
This is an introduction to examples of processing techniques for ultra-fine metal pipes, including one-sided through-hole machining, porous machining, slitting, groove machining, spiral groove machining, and notch machining.
It has become possible to perform various fine processing on thin, ultra-fine metal pipes that were previously unable to be processed due to deformation from external forces with contact tools and thermal effects with conventional thermal processing lasers. By using a rotating mechanism, it is possible to carry out processing in all rotational directions.
This is an introduction to the emergence of biomimetic effects using ultra-short pulse lasers.
At Lips Works, we have discovered a structure that is closer to the surface structure of lotus leaves and suitable for laser processing, based on the concept of biomimetics. While the contact angle of general PTFE is said to be between 120° and 140°, the structure developed by Lips Works has established a contact angle of 170°.

We would like to introduce the antibacterial function achieved through laser processing on the surface of SUS materials.
The flow of antibacterial processing has also been applied to metal products, where antibacterial functions are required to prevent microbiological corrosion caused by microorganisms and to ensure hygiene in places like food factories. As a new method in addition to the application of antibacterial coatings such as silver ions and copper ions, as well as the use of disinfectants, Lips Works proposes antibacterial processing using ultra-short pulse lasers. The emergence of antibacterial properties through ultra-short pulse laser processing does not require coatings on surfaces like traditional methods and does not involve the use of chemicals, eliminating concerns about resistant bacteria. We also provide data that has cleared JIS standards for antibacterial processing through laser processing on our website. How about considering a new method for imparting antibacterial properties to metal materials and manufacturing machines?
We performed high aspect ratio straight hole processing on polycrystalline diamonds!
Polycrystalline diamond is characterized by high hardness and excellent wear resistance, and it not only lacks cleavage and orientation dependence but also has outstanding heat resistance. Due to its hardness and performance exceeding that of single crystal diamond, it is used as a material for cutting tools employed in precision grinding and precision machining. Despite being considered difficult to machine due to its hardness, we successfully created straight holes with a maximum aspect ratio of 7.5 times in polycrystalline diamond with a thickness of 600μm using a non-contact processing method and ultra-short pulse laser that is not dependent on the material being processed!
This is an introduction to examples of through-hole processing for LCP (liquid crystal polymer).
A through hole with a diameter of 0.15 mm was processed in LCP (liquid crystal polymer) with a thickness of 0.05 mm. Compared to conventional laser processing, we achieved fine processing with less thermal impact.
We performed multi-hole processing in a staggered grid pattern on a 50μm thick PI (polyimide) with an entrance diameter of Φ17μm, an exit diameter of Φ6μm, and a pitch of 25μm.
Holes were processed in a staggered lattice pattern on a 50μm thick PI (polyimide) with an inlet diameter of Φ17μm, an outlet diameter of Φ6μm, and a pitch of 25μm.
We will introduce micro-fine processing on transfer rollers using ultra-short pulse lasers.
The Laura transfer method is an essential manufacturing process for sculpture, gravure, embossing, and optical film production. The outer circumference and surface of the core roller are provided with fine patterns. However, the cutting tools used to apply these fine patterns are limited to relatively soft metals, making it traditionally impossible to apply fine processing to high-hardness surfaces. Many users have struggled with the low lifespan due to the low wear resistance of the roll surface. Additionally, methods such as wrapping patterns transferred by Ni electroforming around the roller surface are commonly used, but the seams are also transferred to the product, leading to productivity issues. Rollers are expensive, and they are prone to scratches and significant wear. As a result, not only is the cost of the rollers a concern, but the frequent replacement times have greatly impacted production. At Lips Works, we propose a super short pulse laser lathe processing machine that can perform processing without thermal effects, regardless of the material of the roll surface. Processing size: Φ200mm × L500mm Manufacturing of processing equipment is also possible for sizes larger than the above.
We performed groove processing on carbon steel with a groove width of 23μm and a depth of 130μm using a picosecond laser.
A deep groove machining with an aspect ratio of 5.6 times was performed on carbon steel using a ultrashort pulse laser.
We have compiled a list of examples of nano-periodic structure (LIPSS) processing conducted with femtosecond lasers.
Using a femtosecond laser, we have created fine periodic structures at the nanometer scale. Please confirm that fine grooves have been formed on various metal surfaces such as SUS, Ni, and Ti.
A dot shape was processed on SUS430J1L with a size of approximately 300nm.
During the experiment on nano-periodic structure (LIPSS) processing using femtosecond lasers, a lattice-shaped LIPSS structure appeared instead of the previously introduced linear LIPSS shape!
We performed shallow engraving on the surface of a 150μm thick ultra-thin cover glass using a femtosecond laser.
On the WEB page, you can see that the edges of the recessed areas and the unprocessed areas, which were processed in circular and cross shapes, are cleanly finished without cracks or melting. Unlike conventional lasers, where light can pass through and processing cannot be achieved, or contact processing, where the workpiece may crack, this method avoids those issues.
