About us

We are dedicated 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 the field of femtosecond laser micromachining has begun.

Since the beginning, we are continually investing in research, striving to always be in front of micron-scale challenges.

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.
