<p>Workpiece (2) cutting involves using fluid jet (7) linked laser beam (6) and a fluid feeding device. The chips form a fluid layer (9) on the surface (5), thin (14) to give enough laser energy at cutting point (8) to remove material, in work area (10) and thicker (15) elsewhere to drain fluid. An independent claim is also included for the cutting device.</p> |
