Palladium based thin film metallic glasses were plastically bent by laser forming process. Thin films of Pd77Cu6Si17 with a thickness of 0.028mm and Pd40Ni40P20 with a thickness of 0.017mm were used for specimen. A 50W YAG laser was employed for forming. Variation of bending angle was investigated by changing working conditions such as laser power, laser operation mode (continuous wave and Q-switch pulsed modes), Q-sw frequency, scanning velocity and scanning number. From the experimental results, both thin films of Pd77Cu6Si17 and Pd40Ni40P20 were successfully bent for more than 85°. The formed thin films did not crystallize but were amorphous. As scanning number increased, bending angle also increased but increasing rate decreased. When laser power and scanning velocity were changed, bending angle had a peak. When Q-sw frequency was changed, bending angle had a broad peak in Pd77Cu6Si17 case, but that was larger as frequency was smaller in Pd40Ni40P20 case.
