Laser processing
Based on the development of customized laser processes for R&D systems, we intervene at every stage of your industrial process.
ALPhANOV's skills, both human and material, allow us to offer a wide range of services in the area of laser processing and to intervene at all stages of the industrial process: 
- Studies based on knowledge of laser interaction processes
- Experimental validation thanks to a wide range of laser sources and instruments of control and measurements
- Development an characterisation of industrial processes
- Manufacture of prototypes and small production runs
- Support for the integration of laser machining processes in industrial environment
- User training
Our engineers and technicians have developed and characterised a whole range of laser processes that allow you to drill, cut, mark, engrave, ablate or texture several kinds of materials, on the scale of microns to millimetres with high accuracy, machining quality, conservation of the functionality of materials, and limitation of the heat-affected zone:
Laser Micromachining
The technical means of laser micro-machining available to ALPhANOV allow it to follow you at each stage of your industrial process. All the technical means are detailed in this document.
