The conference brings together experts from industry and research to share technologies, applications, and real-world experiences from the shop floor and the lab. 🔎 𝐓𝐨𝐩𝐢𝐜𝐬 𝐢𝐧𝐜𝐥𝐮𝐝𝐞: • Laser polishing of metals (e.g. functional surfaces, mechanical properties, additive manufactured parts) • Laser polishing of glass and laser-based processes for manufacturing optical surfaces (SLE, USP shape ablation) • Precision shape correction of optical surfaces • Laser polishing of other materials such as plastics or CVD diamond films • Other related topics (e. g. metrology and process control) Whether you are working in production, process development, optics manufacturing, or advanced materials, LaP | LOM 2026 offers valuable insights into current capabilities, challenges, and future opportunities. The conference program is currently being finalized and will be available soon. Registration is already open and the early bird rate is available until July 31, 2026 To the registration 👉 https://s.fhg.de/369 More info 👉 https://lnkd.in/e2Qd7kzq On the first day, participants will also have the opportunity to visit the Fraunhofer ILT laboratories and gain first-hand insights into cutting-edge laser technologies and ongoing research projects. We look forward to welcoming the laser and optics manufacturing community to Aachen for two days of knowledge exchange, networking, and inspiring discussions.
