Laser Photonics Is Trailblazing With Advanced Lasers That Include Cutting-Edge Tech

Benzinga

By Meg Flippin, Benzinga Laser Photonics Corp. (NASDAQ: LASE) has emerged as a leader in laser cleaning and cutting technology, but that’s not the only area it’s trailblazing in. From next-generation laser systems to anti-drone solutions, LPC has many innovations in the pipeline. It shouldn’t come as a surprise. Laser Photonics, which traces its roots back to 1981, has long been recognized as a leading manufacturer of industrial-grade laser solutions for marking, engraving, cleaning and cutting. Leveraging its extensive experience in delivering cutting-edge laser-powered systems to industry leaders across diverse markets and its world-class R&D team, the company owns a number of licenses and patents for innovative and advanced laser products and technologies. The result: a new generation of vanguard laser blasting technologies and equipment that are automated, precise, non-abrasive, eco-friendly and emit no hazardous particles that can harm the operator. Laser Photonics says its technology also addresses the health, safety, environmental and regulatory issues associated with the old methods, which is why it counts Fortune 1000 manufacturers in the aerospace, automotive, defense, energy, industrial, maritime, space exploration and shipbuilding industries as customers. With a multi-billion-dollar market opportunity in laser cutting and cleaning alone, it would be easy for Laser Photonics to sit back and enjoy the ride, but that’s not in its DNA. Innovators at heart, LPC is taking its technology and industry prowess to new levels. Protecting The Skies Take the Laser Shield Anti-Drone System (LSAD), which LPC is testing with parent company, Fonon Corporation. Fonon is a multi-market holding company, R&D center, equipment designer and manufacturer of advanced laser material processing systems for subtractive and additive manufacturing. The two successfully tested a laser prototype that can destroy small-scale unmanned aerial systems (UAS) in conflict zones and expeditionary locations. The prototype was tested at LPC’s new state-of-the-art facility, which features an internal laser range. This enabled Laser Photonics and Fonon to evaluate the proof of concept under controlled conditions. The range served to test the lasers’ capabilities in terms of precision and effectiveness when it came to targeting and destroying distant objects. LPC said the facility will play a crucial role in developing LSAD. “Defense professionals worldwide are focused on anti-drone technology due to its increasing prevalence, which presents an opportunity for LPC and Fonon to collaborate on this project,” said Wayne Tupuola, CEO of Laser Photonics. “We believe that Fonon’s LSAD has the potential to become a must-have technology for modern defense infrastructures.” Mobile And On The Go Then there’s the company’s next-generation upgraded CleanTech laser cleaning systems, which it launched in May. Aimed at on-the-go applications, the new lasers include mobile connectivity for remote monitoring and control, a new compact form factor and a smart overheat protection feature for increased safety. The lasers can be used manually or through its new and improved Robotic Cell unit for automated cleaning. Laser Photonics said the CleanTech Next-Generation Laser Systems are the world’s most compact and portable Class I and Class IV systems in the market. Compact and portable lasers can be useful in many industries – including aviation, manufacturing and shipbuilding – to remove rust, grease, mold and other contaminants. “Modern challenges demand tech-savvy solutions,” says Tupuola. “We are thrilled to roll out our next generation of CleanTech systems. With our new technology improvements, we are ready to tap into diverse market segments and bring in new clients.” Building on its next-generation lasers for cleaning, the company also overhauled its lasers for cutting, rolling out the SaberTech laser-cutting systems. The line will include upgraded versions of the TiTAN Express and TiTAN FX high-power laser-cutting systems. These next-generation systems will feature Turbo Piercing technology, an invention that minimizes the heat-affected zone (HAZ) of the material being processed, thereby reducing material distortion caused by laser heat throughout the cutting operation. By providing fiber laser cutting, LPC gets access to untapped potential in the aerospace, automotive, maritime and defense industries. Taking It To The Next Level Turning the centuries-old multi-billion-dollar sand and abrasives blasting market on its head has always been the goal of Laser Photonics, but it is taking it to the next level with AI and IoT technology. Laser Photonics is adding both to its existing laser products for even more speed, precision and automation. Laser Photonics plans to provide on-site support and AI and IoT training, too, setting it apart from its rivals. The idea is to not only lead in laser cutting and cleaning but also expand through innovation. It's why the company has so many licenses and patents. Laser Photonics has been a leader in laser cutting and cleaning for decades and is taking that expertise to new heights and markets. Its anti-drone lasers and fiber laser-cutting systems are just the start, and many developments can be expected to continue to come from this innovator. Featured photo by Artem Bryzgalov on Unsplash.

Briefly Bio launches with $1.2m funding to help scientists reproduce complex experiments

Briefly Bio

Science is in a reproducibility crisis. In preclinical research, it’s estimated that over 50% of efforts to reproduce experiments fail, costing the industry over $50bn each year. Solving this problem, techbio startup Briefly Bio has launched with software that makes lab work more reproducible by helping scientists capture and share their work clearly and consistently. With this launch, Briefly Bio has secured a $1.2m pre-seed funding round. It was led by Compound VC, with participation from NP Hard, Tiny VC and angel investors across tech and biotech. Biological experiments have become increasingly complex. With this growing complexity, details that are critical to our shared understanding are often undocumented and lost. This makes scientific collaboration inefficient: lab scientists struggle to reproduce and build on top of each other's experiments; data scientists do not have the necessary context to analyse the data produced in their labs; and automation teams lack all details to build robotic labs. Briefly Bio is tackling this, creating a shared language for experiments that is consistent across scientists, and clear for any collaborator to understand. Their software uses AI to convert existing experiment descriptions into this consistent format, while automatically filling in gaps and spotting errors. This helps capture the value of every experiment that is run, and enables scientists to learn from each other’s work. Briefly was founded by Dr Katya Putintseva, Harry Rickerby and Staffan Piledahl. They have varied backgrounds, through academia, tech, biotech and robotics. Before founding the company, the three worked together at drug discovery startup LabGenius, where they helped build its ML-driven antibody discovery platform. Harry Rickerby, CEO and co-founder at Briefly Bio, commented: “Scientific methods are a bit like software code, they are a set of instructions that define how an experiment should be run. The majority of this ‘code’ is incomplete, since writing up each experiment completely takes a huge amount of effort. Now, with LLMs, there’s a way to make these methods consistent without imposing on a scientists’ workflow. As Github helped software engineers collaborate and build on each other’s code, we think Briefly can help scientists and engineers do the same with their experiments.” With AI and high throughput experimentation, there is an opportunity for huge improvements in the efficiency of scientific discovery. Hundreds of billions of dollars are being invested through startups and big pharma to take advantage. To realise this potential, science needs more consistency and transparency in how these datasets are generated, since the value of any model is a product of the data it has been trained on. Briefly Bio is building this necessary layer of infrastructure to accelerate scientific discovery in biology. “This is a revolution in documenting lab experiments. It is the future of foolproof knowledge-sharing between scientists” said Dr Gena Nikitin, Founder of Miphic. While Dr Maria Anastasina, Wet Lab Head at the Evolutionary and Synthetic Biology Unit, OIST, added: “Briefly has become a core part of our lab's knowledge base and a great help to me in training researchers and lab management”. And Suparna Kumar, PhD student at Weill Cornell commented: “Briefly Bio has become an indispensable part of my lab routine because it helps me save so much time”. Rob Harkness, CTO of Biosero, added: “We're very excited by what Breifly.Bio can offer with their software tools. Inconsistent and incomplete data can compromise research, making it difficult to reproduce experiments and undermining trust in scientific results. Digitalising and automating laboratory operations can address this, but this effort faces challenges of inefficiency and high error rates, primarily due to the diverse formats in which workflows are presented. Briefly.bio addresses this by converting scientific protocols written in natural language into a common and consistent structured format. This facilitates much faster design and implementation of automated systems, ensuring all critical information is captured and utilized effectively. The result is a significant boost in workflow integration, efficiency, and data quality, all of which are crucial for generating reliable experimental results. This leads to more comprehensive and innovative solutions in lab automation that can only help accelerate scientific research.” Shelby Newsad, Investor at Compound, commented: “The crux of successful science lies in consistent and executable methods. Whereas most bio software companies focus on data and its analysis, Briefly goes upstream to the core problem space of reproducibility via protocols. For the first time in science history, this incentivizes scientists to share more of their previously tacit knowledge. The fact that Briefly-made methods can be built and collaborated upon creates unique potential for network effects from their software.” Briefly Bio is creating a future where scientists can stop reinventing the wheel – spending time and resources on experiments that they can’t reproduce. This will enable scientists to produce datasets that will quickly expand our understanding of biology. About Briefly Bio Briefly Bio is the tool to make lab work reproducible. It helps scientists capture, share their experiments clearly and consistently. Briefly is based in London, UK. For more information, visit https://briefly.bio.

Standard Fleet

Standard Fleet, an electric vehicle management technology developer, and UP.FIT, an Unplugged Performance company focused on the upfitting of Tesla electric vehicles for fleet use, today announced a collaborative initiative designed to enhance government electric vehicle (EV) fleet management. This effort brings together UP.FIT’s industry-leading expertise in customizing Teslas for specialty use with Standard Fleet's sophisticated fleet management software, aims to improve operational efficiency and support the environmental goals of government fleets including those managed by emergency responders and law enforcement. “Our collaboration with UP.FIT aims to equip police departments with the tools they need for a smoother, more cost-effective fleet management experience,” said David Hodge, Founder and CEO of Standard Fleet. “Integrating our software with UP.FIT’s customized Tesla vehicles means we can offer a system that improves operational efficiency while supporting environmental goals.” "Our mission at UP.FIT is to simplify the adoption of electric fleets for first responders and fleet operators globally,” said James Hedland, Fleet Director at UP.FIT. “Standard Fleet software gives operators complete control of the access, charging, maintenance, and dispatching of their up-fitted EVs. Together we’re providing police departments and other city and county fleet operators with an electric vehicle management system proven to enhance performance and operational efficiency." The partnership addresses a growing need for cost-effective and responsible deployment of EV fleets in public service by merging the expertise and capabilities of UP.FIT and Standard Fleet. This initiative is poised to redefine fleet management for government entities, enhancing both vehicle functionality and operational oversight. Key Benefits of the Partnership: Improved Operational Efficiency: Standard Fleet’s software streamlines the management of charging, maintenance, and daily operations of EVs, reducing both time and costs for fleet managers. Tailored Vehicle Customizations: UP.FIT modifies Tesla vehicles to meet the specific needs of police and public safety operations, enhancing their reliability and suitability for work in the communities they serve. Environmental Impact: The shift towards EVs helps reduce emissions and air pollution, and aligns with local, state, and federal environmental objectives. Sergeant Tony Abdalla from the South Pasadena Police Department, a client benefiting from this partnership, stated, “Adopting electric vehicles for police work presents a unique set of challenges along with opportunities to better serve our community with a cleaner, more reliable, and higher performance police fleet at lower costs over the long term. Standard Fleet technology gives us mobile access to all of our EVs to enhance our operations from dispatch, charging, maintenance, and analytics, to keyless access for officers coming on- and off-duty. Combining Standard Fleet software with the hardware and digital technology upgrades installed by UP.FIT puts our fleet at the forefront of sustainability and performance.” This initiative underscores the potential of technology to improve public sector operations and promotes the adoption of sustainable practices in fleet management.
