Abstract
Laser beam machining is presently an widely used technique at the
industrial level. Among the various operations, drilling with the help
of laser beams has assumed great significance. In this paper, the
fundamentals oflaser beam driUing, the factors affecting accuracy and
reproducibility of laser beam driUing, and the consequent development
of suitable techniques have been discussed briefly with special
reference to high temperature ceramic products. The suitability of
multipulse laser beam driUing technique (MPT), a technique considered
to be the most suitable for driUing of high temperature ceramic
products, has been critically reviewed.
