Laser technology plays a central role in manufacturing sector, especially in the field of Additive Manufacturing. In this context, the Fraunhofer Institute for Laser Technology (ILT) and Makino, global manufacturer of machine tools, have ventured an exciting technological advance: they wanted to transfer the extreme high-speed laser cladding EHLA to a five-axis CNC platform. To do this, however, kinematics had to be developed to enable fast and dynamic movement of the machining head for the EHLA process.
