Coherent's picosecond laser system provides a turnkey solution for permanent, high contrast, contamination-free sub-surface UDI marking of stainless steel devices.
Coherent's new solution for 3D marking meets the increased need to mark non-flat surfaces, such as curved, inclined, recessed, and stepped surfaces as well as free-form objects.

Greg Blackman asks experts how fibre lasers developed between 2010 to 2020, as well as what advancements the future may hold for the technology
Adding to an initial $5.7bn offer from Lumentum and a $6bn offer from MKS Instruments
The proposal comes just weeks after Coherent accepted a $5.7bn acquisition offer from Lumentum.
Coherent's photonics and lasers businesses will be combined with Lumentum's telecom, datacom, and 3D sensing businesses
