In its 38th iteration, The Laser Institute’s (LIA) flagship International Congress on Applications of Lasers & Electro-Optics (ICALEO) will now feature five technical tracks during its technical conference, with the addition of Battery Systems & Energy Conversion.

ORLANDO, Fla.— For four days this October 7-10th, lasers and electro-optics industry experts and leaders from all over the world will congregate in Orlando, Florida for the 38th annual ICALEO conference, hosted by The Laser Institute (LIA).

The conference will consist of a comprehensive four-day trade show for each industry foci ––Aerospace, Biomedical, Microelectronics, and Automotive respectively. Furthermore, the introduction of a new Business Conference component will highlight the Live User Solutions Forums, Roundtable Discussions, Market Driver Symposium, and Evening of Innovation.

Taking a more technical focus toward innovation and novel uses of lasers and photonics, each industry will be subdivided into five tracks for the technical conference and workshop portion. These tracks include Laser Additive Manufacturing, Laser Materials Macroprocessing and Microprocessing, Laser Nanomanufacturing, and Battery Systems and Energy Conversion.

Notable topics will include Gerrit Hohenhoff’s comparison between scanning laser optical tomography (SLOT) and Micro Computed Tomography (µCT) in 3D printing (“Comparison of SLOT and µCT Investigation of 3D Printed Polymer Parts for Quality Assurance”) and Yongfeng Lu’s two-photon polymerization technique in 3D nanofabrication (“Two-Photon Polymerization of Blended Resin Mixtures for 3D Nanofabrication of Functional Structures”).

In addition, Rüdiger Brockmann’s take on autonomous laser processes (“Smart Production – On the Way to Autonomous Laser Processing”) will join Shiva Gadag’s improvement on the compatibility of heart implants with MRI tests via laser doping (“Laser Doping of Platinum for MRI Compatibility of Pace Maker Implants”) in the Laser Materials Microprocessing track. Leonid Lev’sthoughts on the future of powertrain technology will be covered in his presentation (“Laser Applications in Automotive Battery Powertrain Production”) for the Battery Systems & Energy Conversion track.

Beyond extensive networking opportunities, attendees will also have the chance to attend over 222 technical paper presentations on never before published results of cutting-edge applications research, development, or implementation. With over 50 topics offered on each day of the technical conference, attendees will get up-to-date information on the latest industry technologies.
