Advanced Optowave AONano Precision Series
As manufacturing continues to demand smaller features, tighter tolerances, and minimal thermal impact, ultraviolet (UV) lasers have become an essential tool for high-precision material processing. Operating at shorter wavelengths, UV lasers enable higher photon energy and superior absorption, especially on polymers, ceramics, and composite materials.
Compared with infrared or visible lasers, UV laser processing offers:
Smaller achievable feature sizes
Lower heat-affected zone (HAZ)
Reduced carbonization and debris
Excellent edge quality on sensitive materials
Higher processing accuracy for micro-scale structures
These advantages make UV lasers particularly suitable for applications where precision and material integrity are critical.
The AONano Precision UV laser series from Advanced Optowave is specifically designed to meet the needs of industrial micromachining and high-accuracy manufacturing environments.

Built on a robust solid-state laser architecture, AONano Precision UV delivers:
Stable nanosecond pulse performance
Excellent beam quality for fine feature definition
High pulse-to-pulse energy consistency
Long-term reliability for 24/7 production
Compact and integration-friendly design
The result is a UV laser source capable of delivering repeatable, high-quality results across a wide range of precision applications.
UV lasers are widely used in PCB and flexible printed circuit (FPC) processing, where thermal sensitivity and fine geometries are critical.
AONano Precision UV enables:
Clean cutting of polyimide and solder mask layers
Minimal copper delamination
Narrow kerf widths with smooth edges
Reduced post-processing and rework
For micro-vias and high-density drilling, the short wavelength of UV lasers provides high absorption and excellent controllability, even at small diameters.
Typical benefits include:
High roundness and consistency
Low debris generation
Minimal thermal damage to surrounding structures
Many polymers and advanced materials absorb UV energy more efficiently than longer wavelengths. AONano Precision UV is well suited for:
Medical device components
Semiconductor packaging materials
Technical ceramics and composite layers
UV lasers allow high-contrast, high-resolution marking without surface deformation. This makes them ideal for:
Fine text and micro-symbols
Functional surface texturing
Traceability marking on sensitive materials
Advanced Optowave’s Precision UV platform is developed with a strong focus on process stability and industrial integration. In real-world production environments, consistent output and repeatability are just as important as raw performance.
Key differentiators include:
Proven solid-state laser design
Optimized for galvo and motion-stage systems
Strong application and engineering support
Customization options for specific processing needs
From prototyping to full-scale production, AONano Precision UV helps manufacturers achieve higher yield, tighter tolerances, and improved process control.
