The two main objectives of this work is 1) to develop a mathematical model to efficiently capture the fracture behavior of materials undergoing thermal shock and 2) to design and develop a mechanics based hybrid laser/waterjet manufacturing process that will be able to machine hard and brittle materials at higher speeds and with better cut quality.
Waterjet cutting typically holds a tolerance of +/- 0.03″. Speed: Laser cutting is generally a bit faster than waterjet cutting and cuts more inches per minute. Costs: In terms of laser vs. waterjet cost, laser cutting is a more economical option as it can cut parts faster. Waterjet cutting is comparatively expensive, requiring many ...
Laser and water-jet manufacturing processes are independently used to cut monolithic and composite ceramics. While these processes offer many advantages over diamond sawing and other abrasive processes, the energy efficiency, precision, cutting speed, and environmental threats remain as barriers to their continued success. This is partly attributed to the material removal mechanisms, which are ...

The present paper investigates a transformation induced fracture mechanism for the cutting of Polycrystalline Cubic Boron Nitride (PCBN) sample by a hybrid CO<SUB>2</SUB> laser/waterjet (CO<SUB>2</SUB>-LWJ) manufacturing process. In CO<SUB>2</SUB>-LWJ machining, a laser was used for local heating followed by waterjet quenching leading to fracture propagation along the sample surface. Cutting ...
Various process parameters are considered, such as water pressure, laser pulse overlap, pulse energy and focal plane position. It is found that the hybrid laser–waterjet is a viable technology for micromachining of germanium with negligible thermal damage.
Essentially, a hybrid laser is a fiber and YVO4 laser oscillation methods combined into one product. Hybrid lasers, at their core, are diode-pumped solid state YVO4 vanadate lasers, with some modification. The popular hybrid laser on the market today is an S-MOPA. You’ll see that described as combining a YVO4 laser marker with a fiber laser marker.

Water-jet guided laser cutting technology is a relatively new technology, which utilizes a water jet and laser beam (pulsed Nd: YAG laser) to cut. The technology is able to cut with high precision without blurs. It also produces less heat and pollution at the cutting zone, unlike conventional machining. This article reviews the characteristics of this new technology and its usage in laser ...
Waterjet cutting, at its simplest, is the process of a high-pressure jet of water cutting into a material. The technology often compliments other machining techniques such as milling, laser, EDM and plasma. No hazardous material or vapors form during the waterjet process, and neither do heat-affected zones or mechanical stresses.
Micro/nanofabrication with less damage has been raised as a challenging issue in advanced micro/nanomanufacturing industries. Recently, a new hybrid laser-waterjet machining technology has been developed, in which material is removed by laser heating and softening and waterjet cooling and expelling with negligible thermal damage to the workpiece.
The waterjet-guided laser is a hybrid technology allying laser and water. In this unique laser cutting technique a free laminar waterjet is used as an optical waveguide to guide a high-power laser onto the sample.
