Abstract

`Plasmo', a novel designed fast signal processor based device has been developed. We use this modular system for the immediate evaluation of the quality of laser material processing. With this tool the machining process can be analyzed in real-time. An adaptable algorithm ensures that this system automatically adapts to parameter fluctuations during welding or cutting. A summary of our experience in the use in car industry is presented in this paper. We also present new ideas and first results to expand this system to detect the full spectrum of emitted light during process instead of two wavelengths used up to now.
