They give you a generic heat curve that&rsquo;s &ldquo;fine&rdquo; for most people, but in R&amp;D, &ldquo;fine&rdquo; doesn&rsquo;t cut it. You need to control exactly how the energy hits your workpiece. That&rsquo;s why we stop obsessing over total wattage and start looking at<strong>power density</strong>. It&rsquo;s the difference between a blunt instrument and a scalpel.</p>
