Software feature helps improve quality in fiber laser drilling

Prima Power Laserdyne has enhanced the CylPerf™ software feature on its S94P laser process control for higher quality and throughput in on-the-fly percussion drilling of small, shallow angle holes in aerospace engine combustors.

CylPerf is a graphical software utility for programming and processing cylindrical components. In addition to on-the-fly percussion drilling, it can be applied to static percussion drilling and trepanning, including a combination of these within a part or a part section. The latest version incorporates advanced fiber laser control.

During on-the-fly drilling, one laser pulse is delivered in each revolution of the part. Cooling between laser pulses minimizes delamination.
