Abstract

Laser assisted machining (LAM) is machining method that performs a machining for workpieces using laser beam preheating. LAM is in the early stage of its applications and has only been used in limited fields including turning, planning and micro end-milling throughout the world. LAM system should be able to move to the laser radiation direction and to rotate on a tool path for machining of complex shapes. A laser module with two-axis manipulator is designed in this study. It has been performed static structural analysis and shape modification of the manipulator. As the results of shape modification it has been obtained better results than the initial model. These results will be able to use in development of the two-axis manipulator.
