The more laser light is absorbed the cooler the actual substrate will be, because that energy is going into the ablation process rather than heating the metal itself. Less ablation = more heat. Like all things in life there are exce… anonymous@undisclosed.example.com (Anonymous) Tue, 25 Mar 2025 15:30:38 +0000 https://wiki.makearmy.io/doku.php?id=laser_source_database&rev=1720505580&do=diff The Laser Source Database The Laser Source Database is the ultimate collection of laser source information.
