For over three years, ALPhANOV and MBDA have been working together to create a joint laboratory for the scientific study of laser-matter interaction. This fully equipped and highly automated laboratory allows the realization of tests in complete safety with a 10 kW laser source associated with several optical heads mounted on a robot.
ALPhANOV will be in charge of running the joint laboratory to carry research in the fields of interest of MBDA and keeping it operational over the duration of the collaboration.
This laboratory will be open to collaborations on research activities with laboratories of the University of Bordeaux. It will also be exploited by ALPhANOV for its internal or collaborative research and applications of laser processes in industrial fields such as welding, additive manufacturing or laser surface remodeling.
