Turner Laser Systems and QiOVA Collaborate to Bring Multibeam Micromachining to U.S. Manufacturers
Turner Laser Systems (TLS), a leader in precision laser machining, today announced a strategic partnership with French photonics company QiOVA to offer the VULQ1™ programmable multibeam head as an optional upgrade to the TLS Kanga Laser Micromachining Workstation.
The collaboration creates the first—and only—U.S. site where manufacturers can test-drive a multibeam-equipped Kanga, prototype and pilot real parts, and order a production-ready system built locally in Silicon Valley.
“TLS Kanga already delivers micron-level accuracy with customized solutions,” said Mark Turner, CEO of TLS. “Add QiOVA’s VULQ1 and our clients get higher throughput and lower cost per part. Using our 360 Mastery Methodology, they can prove the ROI before they invest in a tool— it’s a win-win-win.”
TLS Kanga Laser Micromachining Workstation with the VULQ1™ multibeam upgrade option splits a single laser into dozens of beamlets that stamp programmable patterns in one pulse, delivering:
● Up to 10× higher throughput
● Rapid ROI — the modest cap-ex pays for itself within months through a lower cost per part
● Boosted OEE — the laser step stops throttling the line, raising factory-wide effectiveness
● Instant, software-driven changeovers — jump from micro-vias to 2-D codes without re-tooling, perfect for high-mix, low-volume production
“QiOVA’s mission is to support broader adoption of lasers in the industry by accelerating laser processing throughput and ROI” added Dr. Florent Thibault, CEO of QiOVA. “Partnering with TLS gives U.S. manufacturers a local path from lab validation to full-scale production, so they can capitalize on this powerful technology. We are excited to see how this will broaden the field of possibilities to our U.S. industrial customers.”
“Test Drive” at the TLS Apps Lab
The TLS–QiOVA partnership brings patented multibeam IP into TLS’s Silicon Valley Applications Lab in Fremont, CA—the only U.S. site where manufacturers can test-drive QiOVA’s VULQ1™ multibeam upgrade on a TLS Kanga, prototype and pilot real parts, and then order a production-ready system built locally. Backed by the 360 Mastery Methodology, customers prove ROI before committing capital, significantly reducing technical and financial risk in one move.
