The Laser Initiative provides a ‘no cost no risk‘ route to evaluating whether laser processing can improve production methods, enable novel product design, cost effective manufacture and production agility, by a program of:

• Awareness seminars to understand the capabilities of laser processes and review typical applications 
• Manufacturing assessments: assessments of current production methods, product designs and market opportunities 
• Feasibility studies, analysis of process costs, cost-of-owership and return on investment calculations 
• Continued practical assistance with: prototyping, business plans, supplier assessments etc 
• Process training and ongoing process support during the critical start-up phase of installation
