Orbotech has introduced two new roll-to-roll (R2R) manufacturing solutions for flexible printed circuit (FPCs), enabling the design and mass production of new generations of electronic devices, including 5G smartphones, advanced automotive and medical devices. Orbotech's innovative roll-to-roll solutions for direct imaging (DI) and UV laser drilling overcome many of the yield, throughput and quality challenges inherent in flex material manufacturing.

MKS Instruments has introduced the latest version of its Spectra-Physics IceFyre ultrashort pulse laser

The Coherent HyperRapid NXT is a high-power picosecond laser that employs advanced pulsing technology to enable micromachining with precision and a minimal heat affected zone (HAZ)

A new marking sub-system from Coherent utilizes a powerful 8W UV laser to enable high-speed marking of polycarbonates, plexiglass, PMMA and other plastics

Amplitude has released its new Tangor UV high-power femtosecond laser, which is able to deliver up to 150µJ of UV pulse energy, has a repititon rate ranging from single shot to 2MHz, and a pulse width of 500fs.

The new laser can dramatically enhance a production line by providing an excellent balance between cutting quality and throughput, while being compact and lightweight.

It has been designed to be easily integrated into a production line, and offers high processing flexibility, no matter the optical setup used.
