Method of processing materials by applying a laser beam with adaptive shielding gas flow

A method of material processing is disclosed, the method comprising applying a laser beam (5), directing the laser beam (5) to a processing location (6) to melt material (3) at the processing location (6), and providing a shielding gas flow (8). The shielding gas flow (8) is controlled dependent on...

Zusammenfassung:A method of material processing is disclosed, the method comprising applying a laser beam (5), directing the laser beam (5) to a processing location (6) to melt material (3) at the processing location (6), and providing a shielding gas flow (8). The shielding gas flow (8) is controlled dependent on at least one of a processing location (6) position, a processing advance vector, and a processing trajectory.
