Digital Optical Laser Stamping

Optical stamping with Liquid Crystal on Silicon (LCoS) technology represents a significant advancement in the field of laser microstructuring, providing innovative solutions for a variety of industrial applications. The core of this novel technology lies in its ability to massively scale processing time, achieving speeds that are up to 30 times faster than traditional methods. This enhanced efficiency not only accelerates production but also opens new avenues for complex designs and high-precision structuring.

Our approach focuses on structuring embossing rollers, which are crucial in manufacturing processes that require high-quality surface textures. By utilizing LCoS technology, we can directly structure surfaces in roll-to-roll processes, which is particularly beneficial for industries such as packaging, electronics, and textiles. Furthermore, our technology can be applied to 3D geometries, allowing for intricate designs that were previously challenging to achieve with conventional techniques.

The European Union project Metamorpha serves as a key reference for our advancements in optical stamping. This project emphasizes the integration of advanced manufacturing technologies, promoting sustainability and efficiency in production processes. Through collaboration with various stakeholders, Metamorpha aims to explore the potential of LCoS-based optical stamping to revolutionize the way surfaces are structured, contributing to the overall goals of reducing waste and enhancing product quality.

In summary, the application of LCoS in optical stamping not only streamlines the structuring process but also allows for unprecedented versatility in design and implementation. As we continue to refine this technology within the framework of the Metamorpha project, we anticipate significant impacts across multiple sectors, driving innovation and setting new standards in production efficiency and quality.
