Virtual Engineering Week is bringing a full week of best-in-class education to the global design, engineering, and manufacturing communities. Join us each morning to hear from medical device industry professionals during the Medtech Mornings series, and in the afternoons to learn from engineering and manufacturing experts in areas like 3D printing, smart manufacturing, packaging, materials and sustainability, and career development.
All times listed below are PST (Pacific Standard Time).
Andreas Oehler (Head of Ultrafast Lasers Applications, Lumentum)

The application space for ultrafast lasers in MedTech is wide spread: drilling of polymer-catheters, cutting, black marking and surface functionalization are some examples, where ultrafast lasers can excel over other technologies with their ability to sublimate material with high precision without causing undesired side-effects such as excessive heat affected zones, melt- or dross formation. To obtain maximum quality at high throughput, flexible laser-sources with advanced features are required to get the most out of respective processes. We will discuss those special laser-functionalities and how they enable you to efficiently use the power of the laser in your manufacturing task.
