A highly skilled and motivated team of scientists and technologists is LUNOVU's backbone. For more than a decade, this team has accumulated expertise in laser technology, high-tech equipment manufacturing and system technology. Our track record results in an impressive number of highly satisfied customers and numerous reference projects.
LUNOVU strictly focuses on future markets and applications. An exceptional level of customer orientation guides our team. We love technology. However, we are convinced that the value that we provide to our customers by using technology has highest priority. All our efforts focus on applications and on the products that our customers develop or manufacture.
In many cases, LUNOVU products provide enabling technology, allowing our customers creating breakthrough products that could not have been manufactured before. In other cases, they improve conventional manufacturing processes, making them more reliable, efficient and productive. LUNOVU systems for R&D and production are based on a flexible platform concept. We deliver holistic machine solutions, equipped with latest laser technology components and processes. Highest productivity at lowest operating cost defines our solutions for equipment, retrofits or application-specific services; we understand continuous innovation as a pre-condition to achieve this.
Being located in the application center of the Fraunhofer Institute of Laser Technology (ILT) in Aachen, Germany, provides us with an excellent access to a proven R&D network. Furthermore, LUNOVU is a member of the collaborative cluster "Direct Photonic Production" (DPP) at the University of Aachen (RWTH). Together with our co-operation partners this allows us to be right at the interface between R&D and industry. We bring innovative processes into the market!
A laser is a unique tool. After Albert Einstein had described its theoretical principle in 1916, it took almost half a decade until the first working laser was produced in 1960.
Since then, laser light in its multiple variations has conquered numerous application areas. In many cases, the laser has enabled new technologies and products. Using a laser means utilizing light as a highly effective tool. Different from conventional light sources, laser light usually is very brilliant, monochromatic and directed. Most important - it can be very intense while it is well controllable. These properties allow using laser light for material processing purposes.
Almost everything is possible
Laser light can cut and weld metals in an extremely well controlled manner, or it drills holes precisely. Using a laser, material can be ablated or generated. Microscopic structures can be produced. The range of materials that can be processed is almost unlimited - it includes steel, non-ferrous metals, ceramics, plastics, glass, diamond, semiconductors, compound materials and many others.
As laser light sources and related optical components are permanently improved, novel application areas are continuously generated. At the same time, lasers become more efficient and reliable while costs decrease. As a consequence, laser technology can move into application areas which have been dominated by conventional technologies so far.
LUNOVU designs and builds complex laser systems, providing integrated solutions for customers in R&D and industry, in applications such as additive manufacturing, laser cladding or micro processing. Our unique products are based on high performance hardware, proprietary control software and application specific process know-how.
LUNOVU laser systems are based on a modular concept. The product portfolio covers 2 to 5 axes cartesian setups in various sizes. Additionally, systems based on articulated robots are available. By merging all critical system components, such as mechanics, electronics, controls, automation and process, a truly integrated system is created which offers significant added value to our customers.
LUNOVU laser machines use latest technology. Laser Metal Deposition (LMD) systems for laser cladding, (also referred to as DED - Direct Energy Deposition or DMD - Direct Metal Deposition) for example, are equipped with a unique sensor technology that scans and digitizes parts surfaces, and automatically calculates and executes welding paths.
Recently, the EHLA process (extreme high speed laser cladding) which was developed by Fraunhofer ILT gained a lot of interest due to its capability to coat parts with unsurpassed velocity and efficiency.

LUNOVU Ultra Short Pulse (USP) laser systems allow "cold" ablation of various materials, opening fascinating new application areas.
The LUNOVU MR-1 is a laser micro material processing system that covers a broad range of applications and processes. This includes micro structuring through ablation, drilling and cutting of various materials.
These processes are applied in eletronics and optoelectonics, thin film technologies, medical engineering sensor technology or in general micro system technology.
The materials to be processed are almost unlimited. Metals like steel, copper or aluminum, but also glass, ceramics, metal oxides and organic materials are processed in LUNOVU systems.
LUNOVU MR-1: Integrated Solution for Micro Processing
Key features of our laser micro processing equipment are highest precision and speed. A robust and vibration free frame is used, usually made of massive granite. Precise and fast axes - both linear and rotary - are employed to perform exact and reproducible 3D processes. The working chamber does not only meet the application requirements, but also reveals an ergonomic design and good accessibility.
Latest technologies in micro processing are already integrated into LUNOVU systems today. As an example, ultra short pulse technology allows processing of very small structures with minimum thermal impact. LUNOVU continuously looks for novel technologies, qualifies them and benefits from a unique R&D network, which provides access to latest developments in laser technology.
