Choosing a fibre, diode or hybrid source

LHYTE is a new technology designed for industrial laser applications that has been developed by Comau in collaboration with Prima Electro. This modular system, which is intended for both the automotive and the general manufacturing sectors, allows end users to choose a fibre, diode or hybrid laser source, thereby meeting the increasingly varied and flexible needs of the industrial sector.
The unveiling event, which was attended by OEMs, system integrators, partner companies and journalists from all over Europe, opened with a welcome speech by Tobias Daniel (head of sales and marketing for Comau Robotics and Automation Products) who introduced LHYTE technology. The technical and application advantages of this innovative solution for the industrial sector were then described by Maurizio Cremonini (Comau’s head of marketing) and Giovanni Di Stefano (Comau’s head of materials and process technologies) together with Maurizio Gattiglio, Prima Electro executive vice president – laser division (Prima Industrie Group).
Afterwards, Ulrich Thombansen, a laser technology expert from Fraunhofer ILT in Aachen, provided a general explanation of laser solutions and Comau’s latest technologies.
A technology patented by Comau, LHYTE is able to combine the potential of direct and fibre laser sources through a modular and flexible structure. The product is adaptable to any industrial application and enables Comau to meet the needs of a market in continuous evolution, in which manufacturers and system integrators are constantly in search of high-performance, versatile technologies.
