Peanuts probably. The wood cutting lasers are 1-200W usually. I'd guess around a KW or two - maybe 3KW for that Just the thing for decommisioning wind turbines... Ah "An industrial fibre laser was chosen for several reasons; it had to be suitable for both roles, it needed to be robust and compact, and appropriate in remote applications using optical fibre delivery of the laser beam power. The laser chosen has an output power of 5kW, adequate to demonstrate both processes, but the same type of laser is commercially available in powers up to 30kW." http://www.twi.co.uk/news-events/cas...issioning-479/ Another great British company doing pioneering work. -- Ineptocracy (in-ep-toc-ra-cy) a system of government where the least capable to lead are elected by the least capable of producing, and where the members of society least likely to sustain themselves or succeed, are rewarded with goods and services paid for by the confiscated wealth of a diminishing number of producers. |

More flexible working distance perhaps. If it is a laser cutter rather than a laser heated plasma cutter (where they feed oxygen or similar to the head) then it won't blast dust about and there is less exhaust to filter before releasing it to the environment. |

The video suggested that it uses compressed air to clear the kerf - which sounds pretty similar to a plasma cutter to me. -- Cheers, John. /================================================== ===============\ | Internode Ltd - http://www.internode.co.uk | |-----------------------------------------------------------------| | John Rumm - john(at)internode(dot)co(dot)uk | \================================================= ================/ |

The sparks seem to be flying away at a fair rate of knots though so I think there must be something flowing from the head. Tim |

More flexible working distance perhaps. I think its all about not kicking up too much crap when you do it. And its very local and very controllable - surgical almost. So long as te dracnian legislation is in placem you can't simply blow up and bulldoze a nuclear power station. You have to take it to pieces. This is a fast and precise way of doiung that. with minmal side effects. -- Ineptocracy (in-ep-toc-ra-cy) a system of government where the least capable to lead are elected by the least capable of producing, and where the members of society least likely to sustain themselves or succeed, are rewarded with goods and services paid for by the confiscated wealth of a diminishing number of producers. |
