Abstract

AbstractUltrashort pulse lasers are the perfect tool for the micromachining of components for a wide range of applications. Even hard and brittle materials can be processed with high precision in state‐of‐the‐art machines like the GL.smart from GFH. With pulse lengths in the pico and femtosecond range, an irradiation >1012 W/cm2 is incident on the workpiece with the potential to generate ionizing radiation. This article deals with the x‐ray emissions recorded during laser turning operations and the corresponding safety measures.
