THE 4TH SMART LASER PROCESSING CONERENCE 2020
APRIL 21 to APRIL 23, 2020
PACIFICO YOKOHAMA, YOKOHAMA, JAPANConference website: http://www.jlps.gr.jp/slpc2020/Co-located with Optics & Photonics International Congress 2020 (OPIC2020)
Organized by Japan Laser Processing Society (JLPS)

AIM AND SCOPE
Laser beam processing is played an important role in industrial fields of not only macro-products but also microproducts, and its technologies are essential to open the new strategies of smart manufacturing such as highly
integrated, accurate, efficient processing with low energy consumption. SLPC2020 deals with science andtechnology of smart laser materials processing including micro and macro laser processing. SLPC2020 is planned
as a three-day event with a plenary session, oral sessions and poster session. The aim of this conference is toprovide a forum for discussion of fundamental aspects of laser-matter interaction, the state-of-the-art of smart
laser processing, and topics for the next generation with fundamental scientists, end users and laser
manufacturers. We expect that SLPC2020 would play an important role not only for understanding fundamental
knowledge of laser processing but also forecasting future technologies and the future laser processing fields.
During the conference, Optics and Photonics International Exhibition is held jointly at the conference site.
