Prerequisites	Knowledge in physics, optics, production engineering
Skills to be acquired in this module	Fundamental knowledge of the characteristics of the laser beam, Knowledge of laser sources for industrial applications, knowledge of procedures of the material processing with laser beams Knowledge of the physical-technical procedures of the individual manufacturing processes with laser beams; Ability for the estimation of favorable working parameters; The participants should be able to understand the procedures of the material processing with laser beams and evaluate the tasks of manufacturing.
Module contents	Overview of the interactions between laser beams and materials in laser material processing. Allocation of the processes in relation to production technology with the laser beam as a tool. Intensive treatment of the manufacturing processes with laser beams in terms of quality, speed and costs. The processes of cutting, joining, surface treatment and generative manufacturing are dealt with intensively using examples from industrial production. Within the framework of lecture-accompanied project work, the application technologies are processed, optimized and evaluated by the students in the laser laboratory.
