Precision Laser Integration for Automated Manufacturing

Laser applications are often seen as one of the most challenging processes to automate, causing many manufacturers to hesitate when it comes to adopting automation solutions. However, with the right approach and the right technology, laser systems can become powerful tools for precision manufacturing. At SDC, we integrate advanced laser application systems into our machines, providing innovative, safe and reliable automation solutions.

We integrate the best laser application systems into our machines, creating innovative and reliable solutions.

We understand the complexities of laser processes and have the expertise to overcome these challenges. Our team develops optimized concepts and designs custom automated machines that seamlessly incorporate laser technology, ensuring exceptional accuracy and precision across various applications, including cutting, marking, and welding.

Each project we undertake is approached with a focus on precision and safety. We evaluate every detail to determine the best solution, taking into account critical factors such as material, part geometry, size and location of the part, production volume, and operating environment. By working closely with trusted partners, we select the ideal technology for integration, tailoring each solution to meet your specific needs. This strategic, personalized approach ensures that our laser application systems perform flawlessly, enhancing efficiency, performance, and reliability.

Our team evaluates each project individually and chooses the partner who can provide the best solutions. We consider many factors including:
  • Material
  • Size and location of the part
  • Part geometry
  • Production volume
  • Operating environment
