How Laser Ablation Works

Laser ablation uses a focused laser beam to heat a small area of a material until it breaks apart and turns into vapor or tiny particles. The energy from the laser is absorbed quickly, causing the surface layer to melt, vaporize, or be ejected. It's often used for precise cutting, cleaning, or shaping of materials without physical contact. Check out the A.R.M.A that uses the laser ablation system below:
