processing results, allowing users to assess and understand the influences of the selected parameters on the resulting sample quality. This proposal aims to develop a system for a web-based laser laboratory. Laser processing operations with different materials, sample thicknesses and a variety of additional parameters will be pre-recorded. Parameters are chosen to cover a wide range of possible results, from [...] from worst to near perfect. Each parameter set is presented with detailed process videos, along with close-up images of sample surfaces and other testing results, such as micrographs, hardness measurements, or other testing results that may be relevant to the selected process. This web-based training concept provides virtual access to modern industrial manufacturing processes without any limitation
