Laser Shock Peening (LSP) is a cold, mechanical process of metal components. By producing a deep compressive residual stress into the material, LSP improves fatigue life, increase resistance to stress corrosion and cracking/corrosion of treated component.
In this live event, Dr. Rostohar will:
- introduce the basic principles of LSP
- explain the influences of laser parameters and the role of the sacrificial layer
- review status in developing new laser systems for LSP
- show some of the applications of LSP with diode pump solid state Joule level laser system
