A method of cutting material for use in an implantable medical device employs a plotted laser cutting system. The laser cutting system is computer controlled and includes a laser combined with a motion system. The laser precisely cuts segments out of source material according to a predetermined pattern as designated by the computer. The segments are used in constructing implantable medical devices. The cutting energy of the laser is selected so that the cut edges of the segments are melted to discourage delamination or fraying, but communication of thermal energy into the segment beyond the edge is minimized to avoid damaging the segment adjacent the edge.

[Object] To provide a joining method for dissimilar metals which are magnesium alloy and steel and difficult to be metallurgically directly joined to each other while oxide film is present at a joining surface.[Solving Means] In order to join magnesium alloy material 1 and steel plate 2 to each other, a galvanized steel plate to which Zn—Al—Mg alloy plating (a third material) is applied is used as the steel plate 2. When joining is made, ternary eutectic melting of Al—Mg—Zn is caused, so that it is discharged together with oxide film 1f and impurities from the joining interface while Al—Mg intermetallic compound such as Al3Mg2 and Fe—Al intermetallic compound such as FeAl3 are formed, thereby joining the newly generated surfaces of the magnesium alloy material 1 and the steel plate 2 to each other through a compound layer 3 containing these intermetallic compounds.

When fixing a glass layer 3 to a glass member 4, a region to be fused R from an irradiation initiation position A in the region to be fused R to the irradiation initiation position A is irradiated therealong with a laser beam L1, and successively an unstable region extending from the irradiation initiation position A in the region to be fused R to a stable region initiation position B is therealong irradiated with the laser beam L1 again, so as to remelt the glass layer 3 in the unstable region, turn the unstable region into a stable region, and then fix the glass layer 3 to the glass member 4. Thereafter, a laser beam L2 fuses glass members 4, 5 together through the glass layer 3 having the whole region to be fused R turned into the stable region, so as to yield a glass fusing structure 1.

A method of preparing a component (60) to be joined to another component (55). The method comprises growing an array of projections (56, 57) on a bond region of the component (55) in a series of layers, each layer being grown by directing energy and/or material from a head to selected parts of the bond region. The joint may be used to join a pair of structural components, for instance in an aerospace application. For instance the joint may be used to join a reinforcing plate, floating rib foot, or stringer to a panel such as a wing or fuselage cover. Alternatively the joint may be used to join adjacent layers in a laminate structure.

The present invention relates to a laser processing method that makes it possible to effectively suppress the generation of surface irregularities on the surface of a plastic member where a metal member and a plastic member are joined together. In the laser processing method, a plurality of laser beams are irradiated from different directions so as to focus on the vicinity of an interface between the metal member and the plastic member, which are in contact with one another. The power densities of the respective laser beams at this time are set to a level not more than a level, at which the exposed surface of the plastic member on the side opposite to the interface between the metal member and the plastic member, does not melt. As a result of this, air bubbles or the like are not generated in the vicinity of the exposed surface of the plastic member, and the generation of surface roughness on the exposed surface of the plastic member is effectively suppressed.

摘要:
A selective laser sintering apparatus and method is disclosed, in which the laser power is controlled according to the scan velocity. The scanning system, which includes a pair of galvanometer-controlled mirrors for directing the aim of the laser beam, generates signals indicative of either the position or scan velocity of the aim of the beam, in either one or two directions. The signals are gated in the laser power control system so as to pass the signals only during those times at which the laser is to be turned on. A laser power control system receives the signals and, in the case of position signals, differentiates the signals to generate velocity signals. The velocity signals are used to derive a scan velocity, and the scan velocity is multiplied by the desired laser power at full scan velocity to produce a laser power control signal. By making the laser power dependent upon the scan velocity, a constant laser energy flux density is applied to powder at the target surface, even during acceleration and deceleration intervals at the beginning and end of a scan, respectively.

In laser plasma coating, the feeding of the material to be applied is unsatisfactory. Too much material is blown away and not used for the coating. Moreover, the application is inhomogeneous, depending upon the direction in which the laser beam is moved. According to the invention, the material is introduced at an angle coaxial with the laser beam and the angular momentum is then braked at the latest at the position where the powder leaves the feed head.
