Products
Lasermeister series
The "Lasermeister" series consists of Nikon's proprietary laser processing machines that apply the optical measurement and precise control technologies Nikon has accumulated with semiconductor lithography systems. They enable various kinds of laser processing with high precision.
Metal 3D printer Lasermeister LM300A + 3D scanner Lasermeister SB100
Pairing the metal 3D printer Lasermeister LM300A with the 3D scanner Lasermeister SB100 delivers a seamless, semi-automated repair solution for applications such as turbine blade and mold/die repair.
Metal 3D printer Lasermeister 100A series
The Nikon Lasermeister 100A series is a metal 3D printer that can perform both measurement and modeling. The Lasermeister 100A is able to perform additive manufacturing, which is used to add new shapes to existing products, thereby meeting a diverse range of needs in the field of metal processing.
Laser subtractive processing machine Lasermeister 1000S series
The Nikon Lasermeister 1000S series is a subtractive processing machine that enables highly precise and complex processing with an ultra-short pulse laser and on-machine measurement. Using measurement data during subtractive processing helps drive digital transformation (DX) by reducing or integrating labor-intensive processes and simplifying quality control.
Riblet processing
Riblet processing
Improving energy efficiency with fine structures
"Riblets" are artificial microstructures modeled after shark skin. Nikon has enhanced energy efficiency in various products such as gas turbines, jet engines, aircraft, and wind turbines by applying these riblets artificially onto component surfaces.
