About us

We commit to finding the most effective femtosecond laser micromachining solution for your µ task!

Who we are

A team ready to find a solution for your micron-scale task. Whatever it takes!

Our journey started in 2003 when extensive research in femtosecond laser micromachining began. Since the beginning, we are continually investing in research, striving to always be in front of micron-scale challenges.

Today we are among the top femtosecond laser micromachining providers for industry and science customers around the globe, delivering fully integrated services from feasibility and prototyping to actual solutions – micromachining services and tailor-made laser workstations.

Our passion, dedication, and hard work led to the deep know-how we can offer you today – send us your µ task, and we will deliver a solution.
