Terra Quantum and Empa have successfully deployed a Fourier Neural Operator that accelerates melt-pool prediction for laser welding by a factor of 100,000 compared to traditional multiphysics simulations. This breakthrough effectively removes the computational bottleneck preventing real-time process control and digital twin integration in high-stakes industries like aerospace and automotive manufacturing. By enabling instantaneous analysis of temperature fields and weld quality, this model paves the way for adaptive optimization of laser parameters during active production cycles.
Terra Quantum and Empa Develop AI Model That Brings Real-Time Prediction to Laser Welding Process Control

Terra Quantum, a global leader in quantum technologiesand Empa, the Swiss Federal Laboratories for Materials Science and Technology, announced LP-FNO (Laser Processing Fourier Neural Operator), an artificial intelligence surrogate model that predicts full three-dimensional melt-pool dynamics in laser welding up to 100,000 faster than traditional multiphysics simulation. Removing the computational bottleneck that has long blocked real-time process control and digital twin deployment in industrial laser processing. This press release features multimedia.
