EULASNET II: Enabling European Industry to develop advanced laser and optical technologies

EULASNET II is enabling European industry to develop the advanced laser and optical technologies critical to the success of European manufacturing as well as to sectors such as medical equipment and information technology.
 
Building on the success of its predecessor, EULASNET, EULASNET II aims to maximise the potential of lasers as highly versatile manufacturing tools and a key technology for future advanced material processing. EULASNET II covers a broad range of applications, from high-power industrial lasers to low-power diagnostic systems, and has six priority themes: laser-associated optical technologies, laser sources, laser interaction and processing, process modelling, monitoring and control and standardisation.
 
EULASNET II focuses on:
  • optics for industrial production processes
  • material processing
  • monitoring and control
  • information and communication technologies
  • biotechnology and medical technologies
  • education
  • training
  • safety. 
Duration: 2006 – 2010
