TRIFECTA OF EXPERTISE: Innovation, practical application and research under a single roof

LASER World of PHOTONICS sets standards—in size, diversity and

relevance. The basis of its success story? The fact that is has constantly

evolved analogously to the photonics sector. The more application sectors

and branches of industry this key technology generates, the more im-

portant the world’s leading trade fair is as a source of impetus and a force

that drives the market. And that with a first-rate portfolio. This is the

only place that features the combination of research, technology and

applications. This is the only place that depicts the entire value chain

for photonics. And this is the only place where all key players come to

network at the international level.

Be part of this unique network and experience light at the next level.

ALWAYS IN

FOCUS:

PHOTONICS 4.0.

From trending topic to production standard: Photonics 4.0. What

potential is associated with this key technology? How can it be realized?

As the industry’s most important source of impetus, LASER World of

PHOTONICS and its focal points make Industry 4.0 a topic of discussion.

This is the place to experience innovation and the cutting edge live.

Very close to the market—and even closer to your business.

IMAGING/SENSORS, TEST AND MEASUREMENT

Laser-based measuring and testing systems and optical sensors have

been indispensible in manufacturing, medicine and science for quite some

time—and they play an ever-increasing role as demand for precision

and resilience increases.

The advantages? Broader applications, improved results, lower costs.

LASERS AND LASER SYSTEMS FOR PRODUCTION ENGINEERING

They optimize production and make processes more efficient. As high-

performance tools in the macro- and micro-machining sector, lasers mainly

give you one thing: A genuine competitive edge.

As the largest trade fair for this exhibition sector, LASER World of

PHOTONICS will demonstrate how your company can profit from that, too.

Our focus to

pics in detail:

BIOPHOTONICS AND MEDICAL TECHNOLOGY

Ultra-high-resolution imaging and increasingly precise spectroscopy and

laser systems are making an entirely new level of quality possible in

diagnostics. On the one hand, physicians, biologists, chemists and pharma/

material researchers profit from that. On the other, so do patients—thanks

to minimally invasive techniques for gentler therapies.

55,000 m2 of exhibition space in 5 halls

1,227 exhibitors from 42 countries = 61% international share

31,279 visitors from 72 countries = 56% international share

THE SUPPORTING PROGRAM

TWO WORDS:

APPLICATION ORIENTED.

Scope that has plenty of depth. The supporting program of LASER World

of PHOTONICS features thematic diversity and founded know-how—

in all sectors. Whether it comes to first-rate lectures, application-oriented

presentations or interactive events: Everything here is about synergy.

Between experts and audience members, theory and practice, information

and action. And above all: about concrete technical know-how and

valuable impetus for your company.
