Ultrafast lasers are becoming increasingly accessible to system integrators, and OEM tool builders. As the cost of picosecond and femtosecond lasers come down - adoption, techniques, and material processes continue to expand. New features, higher power, efficient second and third harmonic generation are pushing the bounds of next gen use cases. PI is meeting these advances on the laser side with equally innovative motion control solutions to make disruptive next gen processes.

High performance ultrashort laser sources are now available at a reasonable cost, opening up many opportunities for machine builders and system integrators to replace less performant traditional machining methods. Advantages of laser processing are higher throughput, precision, and the ability to process ever smaller features.

In addition, this level of connectivity allows them to choose the appropriate drivers, motion amplifiers, and controls for the motion system and the right interfacing for the laser, giving them simple, fast, accurate, and flexible control of their laser processing applications.
