Research Projects

Advances in laser technology

With the aim to identify and test the new possible areas of application and to improve the internal production process, the R&D department participates and promotes research projects in collaboration with universities and research centers. These collaborations ensure a continuous update and grow of the skills of the team members, leading to an increasing range of the cutting-edge services to offer to its customers.

2024

MultiBEAM

Multi-Beam Enhanced femtosecond lAser Micro-drilling

  • This project has received funding from the European Union’s Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme within the framework of the PULSATE Project funded under grant agreement No [951998]. PULSATE is supported by the Photonics Public Private Partnership
  • The main goal of the exploration of innovative beam shaping tecniques aiming to improve the throughput of different micromachining processes

2023 – 2024

SMOLLER

Sub-micron holes drilling by flexible burst mode fs laser for nanoparticle analysis

  • This project has received funding from the European Union’s Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme within the framework of the PULSATE Project funded under grant agreement No [951998]. PULSATE is supported by the Photonics Public Private Partnership
  • Partners: Lithium Lasers SRL e Elements SRL
  • Developing a new method for fast and reproducible manufacturing of submicron diameter holes on polyimide membranes. The project goal is to increase the speed and size reproducibility in drilling of micro holes in the sub micrometer range for flow cells production (di agnostic consumable).

2021 – 2023

MIAMI

Metrology and Artificial Intelligence for the development and quality control of micromachining processes with femtosecond lasers

  • Supported by: Autonomous Province of Trento (LP 6/99)
  • Proposer: Kirana Srl
  • Partner: Fondazione Bruno Kessler (3DOM)
  • The technical-scientific objective of the project consists in the digitalization of the fine-tuning phase of laser micromachining processes through the development of advanced analysis methodologies. These include the joint use of industrial metrology and artificial intelligence, and moreover the development of machine learning algorithms to support the staff in setting up the laser machining process.

2018 – 2020

META-F

Micromachining and innovative treatments on advanced materials using femtosecond lasers

  • Supported by: Autonomous Province of Trento (LP 6/99)
  • Proposer: Kirana Srl
  • Partners: University of Trento (DICAM), Politecnico di Milano (Physics Department)
  • The main aim is the development of industrial processes of micro-machining and innovative surface treatments on advanced materials by means of femtosecond lasers. This includes the in-depth study and evaluation of the optimal laser parameters to obtain sub-micrometric machining with high precision and quality. Within this project the FemtoLab has been set up.
