I know they are offering a general information class on 2D laser cutting during fabtech, it by no means an training for an operator - its more for general overiew. not sure if thats what you looking for.

I was thinking more of a technical oriented class/training on laser welding.
Like I would learn more on pulse, continuous wave, sort of things like that. Even a book would help.

We offer a laser welding class for use of out lasers. What we have is all Nd:YAG pulsed lasers but it is the only real training class that I know of.

Anyone know where i can find training classes or schools on laser cutting. We have a Cincinatti Laser with a Rofin/Sinar setup that we are having a little trouble dialing in. The company we bought it from wasn't very forthcoming with their tricks and we have spent alot of time fine tuning it with little progress. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Dear Lderoly,

Check out the courses offered by the EPD Department at the U of W in Madison, WI.

Simon;

I went to the website and this looks like the program I was looking for. The details seems to match what I am trying to get out of it.

thanks for the link.
