Abstract
A system and method for trepanning holes into a work piece as relative movement between the work piece and a pulsed laser occurs. As a cylindrical work piece rotates for example, a position controlled pulse laser fires a first series of timed pulses. During each subsequent rotation of said work piece another series of pulses is fired such that the periphery of a row of identical holes is cut into the cylindrical work piece.
