Because of its advantageous material characteristics, E-glass composites are in the main research topics of all
actual lightweight construction megatrends. Especially in transportation trends ranging from aeronautics over the
automotive industry to naval transportation the expected economic and environmental impact is high. In naval
transportation components like yacht bodies, antenna masts, decorative structures like deck lamps, light houses and pool
areas represent cheap and robust solutions. Commercially available laser tools like carbon dioxide gas lasers (CO2),
frequency tripled solid state UV lasers and Neodymium-YAG (Nd: YAG) lasers can be used [1-5]. These tools have
emission wavelengths of 10 µm, 0.355 µm and 1.064 µm, respectively. In this paper, a high power 1 micron wavelength-
fiber laser processing parameters such as heat affected zone, process gas pressure, work piece feed velocity, intensity,
irradiation time etc. will be presented and discussed.
