Abstract

Laser, an acronym of “Light Amplification by Stimulated Emission of Radiation,” is one of the most convenient forms of energies. Since its invention, its application has been continuously increasing. This article presents an insight on different applications of laser, viz., heat treatment, material removal, finishing, cutting, welding, and cleaning. The specialty of laser lies in its ability to be used at different levels of intensity as per requirement. The applicability of laser can be found in entire manufacturing field, starting from traditional manufacturing (machining, welding) to modern manufacturing (3D printing).
