Abstract (en)
[origin: WO2007055691A1] A laser system that can be used to perform manufacturing process such as welding, cutting, drilling and marking a work piece. The laser system includes an array of laser diodes (12) that each generate a laser beam. The laser beams (16) may collectively create a beam that is directed onto the work piece (20). The system also includes a control circuit (28) that can select and control the laser diodes to vary a characteristic(s) and/or profile of the beam. The control circuit may control the laser diodes so that an outer area of the beam has a higher intensity than an inner area of the beam.
