Aluminum alloys are highly reflective metals. Traditional fiber laser processing can easily cause thermal accumulation, recast layers, edge burrs, and thermal deformation. Mechanical milling also presents challenges such as tool wear, stress deformation, and difficulty in forming small features.
Watlaser Water Guided Laser technology enables precision machining of aluminum alloys without the complex process tuning often required by conventional laser processing.
Processing Example

ZTA (Zirconia Toughened Alumina) ceramic is widely used in industrial manufacturing as a high-strength and wear-resistant material.Its high hardness and brittleness make precision machining challenging.
Watlaser Water Guided Laser technology provides stable precision machining of ZTA ceramic components while minimizing thermal effects and edge damage.
Processing Performance
· Micro-hole diameter: 300 μm
· Dimensional error: < 10 μm
· No visible cracking
· No discoloration on the cut edge
· Reduced heat-affected zone High-quality finished components

Diamond-doped tungsten-based materials are typical difficult-to-machine composite materials used in industrial manufacturing. They combine the extreme hardness of diamond with the high density of a tungsten-based matrix.
Watlaser Water Guided Laser technology enables precision processing of this type of composite material while minimizing diamond particle pull-out and thermal damage.
Processing Performance
· Diamond particle size: ≥ 300 μm
· Dimensional error: within 20 μm
· No diamond particle pull-out
· Processing time: only 1/20 of the conventional process

Tungsten steel (cemented carbide) is a high-hardness, wear-resistant material widely used in industrial manufacturing. Its high hardness makes precision machining difficult. Conventional processes often face challenges in machining micro-grooves, including poor accuracy, limited penetration capability, and inconsistent processing between thick and thin workpieces.
Watlaser Water Guided Laser technology enables stable precision machining of tungsten steel micro-grooves.
Processing Performance
· Micro-groove structure: 0.7 mm × 0.3 mm
· Complete through-cutting
· Upper-to-lower surface dimensional error: within 20 μm
· Ultra-high aspect ratio: 20×
· Maximum demonstrated workpiece thickness: 8 mm
Industrial manufacturing increasingly demands high precision, excellent surface quality, and reliable processing of hard, brittle, and difficult-to-machine materials.Watlaser Water Guided Laser technology combines laser precision with continuous water cooling to provide a non-contact, low-thermal-impact machining solution for demanding industrial applications.
