This article presents a new way of evaluating the laser cutting process. We show that it is
possible to deduce the underlying process parameters directly from the laser-cut edge using …

We present an in situ process monitoring approach for remote fiber laser cutting, which is
based on evaluating images from a high-speed camera. A specifically designed image …

The authors report on a monitoring system for fiber laser fusion cutting based on a high-
speed camera with spectral sensitivity in the visible spectral range. Without external …

Customer demands have become more individual and complex, requiring a highly flexible
production. In high-wage countries, efficient and robust manufacturing processes are vital to …

Although laser cutting of metals is a well-established process, there is considerable potential
for improvement with regard to various requirements for the manufacturing industry. First …

We report on a monitoring system based on a high-speed camera for fiber laser fusion
cutting. The monitoring system is used without an external illumination retrofit on a …

Kybernetische Ansätze sind seit langem ein wichtiger Teil der Produktionstechnik. Die
