Summary
And that’s the end of the chapter. Here, we introduced lasers, looked at how a laser machine works, and started to understand the underlying complexities and considerations that proper CAM software manages to cut parts with a laser.
Despite not being able to call ourselves experts on the subject after these few pages, I hope that we now have a general idea of what is going on with laser cutting and when it may be an interesting manufacturing solution to opt for.
In the next chapter, we will continue our laser-cutting introduction by exploring how to create a proper nesting for our parts!
