Zusammenfassung

Many plastic parts have structured surfaces such as leather textures on car dashboards. Usually these structures are manufactured in the injection mould by photochemical etching which is a time consuming and expensive process. Furthermore, large amounts of acids are used, not making it, therefore, an environment-friendly process. A totally new approach to structuring metallic surfaces with laser radiation is structuring by remelting. In this process no material is removed but reallocated while molten. The innovation of structuring by remelting is the totally new active principle (remel...
