We are illuminating new paths. From automotive engineering and photovoltaics to aircraft and medical technology, a wide variety of industries benefit from the radiant power of lasers.
There is no doubt that the "tool light" is an innovation driver. Germany occupies a leading international position in optical technologies and has asserted itself as a world market leader in areas such as laser manufacturing technology. Through intensive research efforts at the interface between science and practice, not least the Fraunhofer Institute for Laser Technology ILT has been contributing to this - for more than 30 years.
