EPIC Online Meeting on Scanner-Based Laser Processing: Insights from a New Industry Reference Book
Online Event
Join us for an EPIC online meeting dedicated to the upcoming Springer publication Guide to Scanner Based Laser Processing, a comprehensive 750-page reference work authored by 16 experts from five countries. This session will provide an overview of the book’s key themes, spanning laser physics, beam delivery, process monitoring, industrial applications, and system design, with a strong focus on real-world implementation. Six EPIC member companies—including SCANLAB, Cailabs, Amphos, Precitec, DMC, and Luxinar — have contributed their expertise across the value chain. Participants will gain insights into the latest technological developments and practical considerations shaping scanner-based laser processing today.
This event is free of charge.
