The laser processes developed in DIPLAT are highly energy efficient compared to conventional diamond processing technologies. Furthermore, they require no consumables such as processing fluids, electrodes, grinding tools, ...
The tools produced in DIPLAT facilitate "dry" cutting processes and replace grinding processes. As the supply of cooling lubricants consumes a high percenatge of the energy in these conventional processes, this raises the resource efficieny of all products manufactured by these tools.
