FABTECH/AWS to promote lasers

July 21--A variety of special programs focus on laser technology at FABTECH Int'l and AWS Welding Show scheduled for Oct. 31- Nov. 2 in Atlanta, Georgia. The Industrial Laser Group will be presenting a free one-hour program called Laser 101 on the opening morning of the show in the Innovation Theater. The program will introduce the audience to the variety of ways laser technology is currently being used in manufacturing as well as predict the new uses for lasers that are on the horizon.

Following this introductory program attendees can register for four new laser technology conference sessions held over the remaining days of the show.

A 'tech tour' on the show floor will take participants to a variety of laser vendors' booths where they can see live demonstrations of the technology.
