The various types of lasers, their specific qualities and their applications, such as for cutting, engraving, welding, and others.
Ensure the necessary, usually constant, temperature of processed metal workpieces during metal fabrication processes.
Set up the desired product design in the CNC controller of the CNC machine for product manufacturing.
Tend a metalworking machine designed to join metal pieces by use of a laser beam exuding a concentrated heat source, monitor and operate it according to regulations.
Set up and give commands to a machine by dispatching the appropriate data and input into the (computer) controller corresponding with the desired processed product.
