Our expertise extends from beam source, machining and measuring techniques, to application, through to integration of systems into the customer’s production line.

We maintain a dynamic balance in our work between application-oriented basic research and actual development, a vitality that is rooted in addressing tasks with continuously changing requirements. This dynamic balance allows us to serve existing markets while gaining access to new ones.

We fulfill our obligation as a non-profit public-benefit organization through the training of highly qualified staff in research and education, and by strengthening the technical and scientific capabilities of German companies. We play an active role in the formulation and organization of research policy goals.
