When you think about the difficulties of working with surface mount components, the first thing that often comes to mind is trying to solder those tiny little parts. Instead of soldering those parts ...

Sutures and staples are established tools for reconnecting tissues during surgery or to treat wounds where necessary, but they are inherently invasive and can encourage subsequent infections or ...

A relative latecomer to The Hackaday Prize, [AltMarcxs] has nevertheless come up with a very interesting tool for fabrication, the likes of which no one has ever seen before. It’s a rotating laser ...

Researchers from Empa and ETH Zurich have introduced a new technique for wound closure in a recent study published in the journal Small Methods. Utilizing a novel laser soldering approach, the team ...

A programmable photonic circuit has been developed that can execute various quantum algorithms and is potentially highly scalable. This device could pave the way for large-scale quantum computers ...

Stitches and staples may be on their way to becoming a thing of the past, thanks to a developing technology known as laser tissue welding. Now, a new gold-based solder has been created, that could ...

Product Briefing Outline: Reis Robotics has now implemented a newly developed laser soldering procedure for practical use with several customers. Photovoltaics manufacturers are increasingly anxious ...

A single solar cell produces a relatively low output -- it's a case of strength in numbers. Tiny strips of metal are used to link cells together. If the laser soldering temperature is too high, the ...

A fiber-coupled array of diode lasers can produce a high-quality gold-tin solder joint in just two seconds. Laser manufacturer Coherent, US, has developed a fiber-coupled, high-power diode laser ...
