Surface Texturing on a CNC Machine Tool Using a Laser

In the paper stages of the process of constituting a surface with the texture of the injection mold of a wheeled vehicle steering wheel using laser technology was discusses. During micromachining process with texturing there is a 5-axis CNC-controlled CNC machine TOOL LASERTEC 65 Shape used with a rigid monoBLOCK structure with Siemens 840D sl control, equipped with a fiber laser with a power of 100W, a wavelength of 1064 nm and a focal length of 181 mm. Processing technology was prepared using Autodesk Maya, Adobe Photoshop, Adobe Illustrator, NX9, Lastex v. 2.27.26 computer programs and machine tool control systems. Results of machining the steering wheel of a wheeled vehicle with a concentrated laser beam are discussed. Geometric structure of the surface after texturing was evaluated. Presented technology can be used to obtain the desired texture properties on the surface of the parts.
