High-precision laser processing with reduced burrs by suppressing heat with water jet! New demonstration center opened.
The Swiss company Synova, which holds the basic patent for water jet-guided laser (laser microjet technology), has developed the 5-axis machining center 'MCS150'. By passing a water jet with a diameter of less than 100μm, it suppresses heat generation and enables efficient and precise processing while directing high-power lasers onto the material. In addition to having superior "cooling effects" compared to air lasers, it can remove molten material using a water jet without the need for assist gas, allowing for processing with minimal burrs and reduced thermal impact. 【A new demonstration center has been established.】 ■ It is the largest among our demonstration centers. ■ It will be opened at the Makino Milling Machine Co., Ltd. Atsugi office. ■ Two 3-axis machining machines and one simultaneous 5-axis machining machine for diamond tool processing will be permanently available. (Another simultaneous 5-axis machining machine will be added in early 2015.)

basic information
**SYNOVA's Laser Microjet Technology** The "Laser Microjet" combines a laser beam with a layer of water jet. The layer of water jet, which is ejected from nozzles with diameters ranging from 25 to 120 μm, utilizes the phenomenon of total internal reflection at the interface of water and air, guiding the laser beam to the material in the same principle as optical fibers. The material melted by the laser is efficiently removed by a moment greater than that of the gas in the water jet. By rapidly repeating this melting, cooling, and removal process, high-precision laser processing with minimized thermal effects becomes possible.

Company information
〇 Shinova offers innovative laser cutting devices suitable for a wide range of micro-machining and dicing. 〇 Our mission is to provide cost competitiveness and technical advantages to our customers who manufacture cutting-edge devices through our technology. 〇 With our patented technology, the laser is guided straight through a water jet as thin as a human hair. 〇 This water jet enables cutting, grooving, and scribing of materials. 〇 The water jet prevents the divergence of the laser, allowing for high-precision cutting that cannot be achieved with conventional lasers or diamond blades. 〇 Additionally, the low-pressure water flow cleans while cooling the cutting surface, enabling processing without causing thermal effects, contamination, or deformation of advanced materials. 〇 Furthermore, improvements in productivity and cost reduction can also be expected.
