Systems and methods for machining openings of a component are provided. In one exemplary aspect, a laser system includes features for machining an opening into a component, such as a cooling hole for a CMC component of a gas turbine engine. The component can be oriented in a first position and lasered while oriented in the first position to form a portion of the opening. The component is then oriented to a second position and lasered while oriented in the second position to form another portion of the opening. The component is alternated between the first and second positions until the predetermined geometry of the opening is formed. The component is oriented in the first and second positions such that the laser beam can machine the component without clipping areas that are not desired to be machined.

A joining device and method for laser-based joining of two components includes a first laser radiation source, a first radiation guide connected to the first radiation source to couple first laser radiation into the first radiation guide, a second laser radiation source, at least one second radiation guide connected to the second radiation source to couple second laser radiation into the second radiation guide, and a focusing device coupled to the laser radiations and focusing them at a distance from each other into a joining zone of the components. To reduce installation effort, the focusing device focuses the first and second laser radiations through a common beam path and a coupling device is connected on its input side to the first and second radiation guides and on its output side to the focusing device. The coupling device couples the first and second laser radiations into the common beam path.

A device includes a first laser emitter, a second laser emitter, and a separating portion. The first laser emitter is configured to emit, in an outer circumferential portion of a bonded substrate including a first substrate and a second substrate bonded to each other, a first laser beam into the first substrate from a side of the first substrate to form a modified layer. The second laser emitter is configured to emit a second laser beam to a material layer that is arranged between the first substrate and the second substrate and is provided on the second substrate from a side of the second substrate, to cause peeling between the second substrate and the material layer. The separating portion is configured to separate an outer circumferential portion of the first substrate and an outer circumferential portion of the material layer from the outer circumferential portion of the bonded substrate.

A method of machining includes removing material from a target region of a ceramic component to form a blind opening in the ceramic component via removing a bulk of the material by a laser machining operation and then removing a remainder of the material by a mechanical machining operation.
