The fineness and precision of the laser beam make it a tool in its own right, capable of machining the most difficult materials. The new generation of pulsed lasers delivers performance that places laser engraving in a strong position compared with traditional tools. Many applications are already operational in industry, notably in watchmaking and even in the manufacture of injection moulds and dies. Our training course aims to give you the skills to set up and optimise your engraving and micro-machining processes.
