Laser Precision Microfabrication (LPM) international conference 25 to 28 June 2018

Delegates from all over the world attended LPM2018 at Heriot-Watt Edinburgh, hosted by Professor Duncan Hand and the EPSRC Centre for Laser-based Manufacturing in Laser-based Production Processes (CIM-Laser). 

The conference was organised jointly with the Association of Industrial Laser Users (AILU) and the Japanese Laser Processing Society.  The first time in its 19 year history that this conference was held in the UK, LPM2018 attracted a larger number of delegates than ever before, with 343 registrants from 22 countries.  Prof Hand commented “this has been a fantastic opportunity to highlight our laser manufacturing activity and I have received lots of positive feedback about the conference, our campus, and our research facilities.”
