Laserline is presenting the entire spectrum of its diode lasers at Laser World of Photonics. In addition to trade fair innovations such as LDL direct diode lasers and optical fibers for high-power applications, the main focus will be on achieving more efficient and sustainable machining processes.
Agathe Lemaitre from Novo Nordisk and Sam Huang from the Kyland Group are the latest members to join the UniversalAutomation.Org board of directors. The two experienced management professionals were elected to the now nine-member board at the 2025 Annual General Meeting.
Danfoss and E.ON One present an all-in-one solution combining hardware and software that saves up to 30% energy and enables significant CO₂ reductions for both existing and new buildings.
• Premium lifting technology for lifting and positioning construction machinery and mounting machine components
• DGUV-certified lifting points with defined nominal WLL as an alternative to unsafe in-house solutions
• Centre of excellence for lashing equipment and practical examples of load securing
Electrode drying in the roll-to-roll process (R2R) has so far been one of the most cost- and CO2-intensive manufacturing steps in the production of lithium-ion batteries. A laser-based R2R drying process developed as part of the IDEEL research cooperation could change this in the future. It combines conventional, oven-based convection drying with laser drying using high-power diode lasers and reduces the drying time by more than 60 percent while maintaining the same quality of results.
Up until now, battery electrodes have been dried primarily in gas-operated conveyor furnaces. However, a recently developed approach based on diode lasers is noticeably superior to the convective drying process and for the first time makes it possible to produce laser-dried anodes and cathodes in a roll-to-roll process. A white paper by Laserline and staff from the PEM (Production Engineering of E-Mobility Components) group at RWTH Aachen University highlights the advantages of this diode laser-based electrode drying process and outlines the path to more efficient, cost-effective and environmentally friendly battery production.
LWL-Sachsenkabel GmbH has launched a modular rack unit with high packing density for structured cabling in 400G and 800G data centers. The 19-inch MRU system is available in 1U installation height, can hold up to 144 fibers, and is suitable for patch and splice applications.
Highly efficient laser solutions for industrial material processing in the battery and e-mobility
sector - this is the focus of Laserline's presence at the Battery Show Europe 2024. The main
topics include new high-efficiency diode lasers for economical and environmentally friendly
battery drying and blue diode lasers for the effective processing of copper components for
electric drive technology and power electronics.

Aalen, August 2024 – Marine, offshore and subsea lifting technology solutions – these are what RUD is going to focus on at SMM (3 to 6 September 2024 in Hamburg, Stand A1.321). The Aalen-based company is going to present its broad portfolio of DNV-certified lifting means for use on board ships, in ports, on offshore platforms and in shallow water and the deep sea. The products to be presented are all extremely robust and designed according to the highest quality requirements. Therefore, they meet the highest safety standards even when subjected to harsh environmental conditions and changes in the weather.
The Laserline company's presentation at the Laser World of Photonics 2022 focusses on technological innovation. To be presented are the first blue diode laser with 3 kW CW output power and a new high-power-cladding-solution using a 45 kW IR diode laser. The latter was developed in cooperation with the Fraunhofer IWS.
• Development of the first chain system in quality class 10 (grade 100) as the starting point
• The pink colour still ensures an exceptional position on the market to this day
• Temperature-related colour changes act as a reliable heat indicator
