The rise of industrial automation, coupled with the advent of new technologies such as computer
numerical control (CNC), computer-aided manufacturing (CAM), and fibre laser technology, is
subsequently
fuelling the adoption of fibre lasers in multiple industries such as manufacturing, aerospace,
automotive, and semiconductor & electronics for applications such as marking, engraving, printing,
welding, and cutting. Thus, surge in demand for fibre lasers in different industries and emergence
of industrial automation are likely to encourage the future growth of the Europe fibre laser market.
Europe Laser Processing Market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 4% during the forecast period and
the market is expected to reach €1.1 Bn. by 2027 (ref maximizemarketresearch.com).
Further, the UV fibre lasers are increasingly adopted for precise cutting and marking of brittle
materials, owing to ease of integration, high performance, and precise tuning.
Owing to the growing need for optimization of resources, manufacturers are exploring various options
to streamline their manufacturing and distribution operations.
Manufacturers are getting inclined toward the adoption of automation solutions for the optimization
of business resources.
Industrial automation uses various robots and advanced information technologies to carry out various manufacturing and distribution processes. High productivity, high output quality, flexibility, information accuracy, and safety are among the major advantages of industrial automation. DILAPRO permits to increase the adoption of laser in the manufacturing area by helping a faster productivity and quality based on laser manufactured. The research in new laser sources and output power is also important for keeping in the EU production competitive. The software DILAFACT will permit to not only reach the direct optimisation of today's laser manufacturing, but also the approach of future development. In parallel, and due to the increase of the laser and robotic market, the needs for qualified workforces will also increase. DILAPRO will also permit to train and upgrade the workforces as well as the companies through the educational program lead by EWF. Future generation will beneficiate from advance in research and technologies at DTU and DCU.
