June 25, 2019 – Andover, MA – MKS Instruments, Inc. (NASDAQ: MKSI), a global provider of technologies that enable advanced processes and improve productivity, introduces its ‘Surround the Workpiece’ offering at Laser World of Photonics. In hall A2, stand 209 MKS will present an interactive display to visualize the connection between the products and services within the MKS’ Light & Motion division with its Spectra-Physics, Ophir, and Newport brand.

The MKS ‘Surround the Workpiece’ offering includes product design and development, system level integration, research and development, component selection and maintenance, repair and calibration services in the field of laser-based guidance and control for manufacturing processes. Spectra-Physics combines laser technologies with deep application expertise to deliver lasers for precision industrial and scientific research applications. Ophir specializes in laser and LED measurement, including laser power and energy meters and laser beam profilers. Ophir also provides high-performance IR thermal imaging lenses and optical elements as well as optics for CO2 and high-power fiber laser material processing. Newport completes the concept with solutions including motion control, optical tables and vibration isolation systems, photonic instruments, optical and opto-mechanical components.

“Surround the Workpiece is the MKS offering that serves the needs of Advanced Markets that require laser-based solutions. We provide customers with the key components, systems, and services to enable the successful implementation of these solutions. The workpiece itself varies”, explains Mark Gitin, Senior Vice President, Light & Motion division, “For our Semiconductor market customers, the workpiece is a semiconductor wafer. And for Industrial Manufacturing customers, it can be as diverse as a weld, a precision glass or metal sheet, or a printed circuit board (PCB). The workpiece may also represent a subsystem such as an optical network for the communications market or an imaging system for our remote sensing customers.”
