Universities & Research

University research labs and engineering departments use laser systems for everything from materials science research to rapid prototyping of advanced designs.

Laser Technology in Universities & Research

Canadian universities and colleges are significant users of industrial laser technology. Engineering departments, materials science labs, architecture programs, and industrial design studios all rely on laser cutting and engraving for research, prototyping, and teaching. University applications often push the boundaries of what these machines can do — from micro-machining experiments to large-format architectural models.

Key Applications

  • Engineering research and materials testing
  • Rapid prototyping for capstone and thesis projects
  • Architectural model fabrication at multiple scales
  • Microfluidics channel fabrication for biomedical research
  • Custom lab equipment and fixtures
  • Industrial design and product development prototyping
