Process development

Practically every new job starts with a feasibility study.
A feasibility study in turn usually requires a step by step process development.

Process development goes hand in hand with the feasibility study. There are two main aspects:

• clarifying whether a job is at all feasible using laser technology
  
  and
  
  
• the commercially most rational process (degree of rationalization/degree of automation)

Practical experience has shown (and incidentally this is also fully in keeping with the
ISO standards) that the individual development steps should best be compiled as
a check list in the form of a table of typical laser machining aspects.

Do not hesitate to contact us to get a copy of the checklist either by e-mail or fax.

From this check list it is very easy to draw up a risk analysis.
The process development therefore begins with a risk analysis and ends with a verdict:

• Feasible
• Feasible with reservations
• Hands off!

The costs of process development are generally estimated by Lastec Ltd in a package offer, with Lastec and the customer each assuming 50% of the costs, insofar as this is justified by the expected order volume.
