A method for treating a coating on a scrolling substrate by a treatment unit generating a laser beam, the method including producing a pattern including several lines or portions extending in the scrolling direction and/or the direction orthogonal to the scrolling direction, the pattern being repeated to cover treat the surface of the substrate.

A device for heat treating a coating deposited on a substrate includes a treatment module opposite which the substrate runs, the treatment module including a laser source generating a laser beam of energy, a splitter module to split the beam into a multitude of secondary beams, having an energy En to treat the coating, that have the form of a point, a scanner allowing each secondary beam to be displaced in the running direction according to a first amplitude and first velocity and/or in a direction orthogonal to the running direction according to second amplitude and second velocity; and a displacement system to create, in operation, a relative displacement movement between the substrate and the or each treatment module.

A decorative part and a method for producing a decorative part, wherein the decorative part is in particular a lining part of a motor vehicle. The decorative part has a decorative coat which is provided on the rear side with a reinforcing layer and/or on the visible side with a transparent coating. In order to improve the durability or the optical properties, in particular, of a decorative part provided with a light guide for transilluminating and/or backlighting the decorative coat, the decorative part is post processed by a laser treatment.

A cover window includes a plastic layer and a first hard coating layer disposed on an upper surface of the plastic layer. An edge of the cover window includes a vertical side part perpendicular to the upper surface of the plastic layer. A first inclination part is connected to the vertical side part and is inclined with respect to the vertical side part. The vertical side part and the first inclination part include a mechanical processing trace. An edge of the first hard coating layer adjacent to the first inclination part includes a laser processing trace.

A packing bag to store a stored article Z with tight seal by a welded sheet material 1 of resin in which a separation-prepared line portion 5, separable by predetermined tensile force F by human hands to take out the stored article Z, is provided along an opening-prepared side portion 10, the sheet material 1 has a layered unit construction in which first and second welding resin layers 61A and 61B are disposed on both sides, and a barrier layer is disposed on a middle position, the separation-prepared line portion 5 is composed of a half-cut first laser-worked groove 7A concaved on the first welding resin layer 61A and a half-cut second laser-worked groove 7B concaved on the second welding resin layer 61B, and, the first and second laser-worked grooves 7A and 7B are formed barely damaging the barrier layer 60.

A device for generating a laser line on a work plane includes a first laser light source configured to generate a first raw laser beam, a second laser light source configured to generate a second raw laser beam, and an optical arrangement configured to reshape the first raw laser beam to form a first illumination beam with a first caustic and a first beam profile, and reshape the second raw laser beam to form a second illumination beam with a second caustic and a second beam profile. The first illumination beam and the second illumination beam are directed with overlap on the work plane and define a joint illumination direction. The first beam profile and the second beam profile jointly form the laser line on the work plane. The optical arrangement is configured to position the first caustic and the second caustic offset from one another in the illumination direction.

A laser processing system includes: a first light irradiator including: a first light emitter to emit first laser light; and a first light scanner to scan a first region of a workpiece with the first laser light emitted from the first light emitter; a second light irradiator including: a second light emitter to emit second laser light; and a second light scanner to scan a second region different from the first region of the workpiece with the second laser light emitted from the second light emitter. The first light irradiator emits the first laser light to the first region of the workpiece in a first irradiation direction, the second light irradiator emits the second laser light to the second region of the workpiece in a second irradiation direction opposite to the first irradiation direction.
