This category contains sites related to the manufacture, supply, and service of a broad spectrum of laser based devices and equipment for a wide variety of industrial, scientific, and medical applications. Some of the sites are concerned with a specific industry or quite narrow use, while many serve a fairly extensive range of markets. All, however, reflect an increasing advance in laser technology and products nowadays.

Note: The emphasis in this category is on equipment rather than on the provision of job shop processing or cutting services. The category also excludes sites that are primarily focused on cutting or marking machinery or on the availability of entertainment and consumer products. Sites that can be so classified can be found -- and should be listed -- in the other categories that are shown as being @linked to this one.

Additional note: A few companies that supply components and spare parts for the laser industry, can be found in the Business/Industries/Manufacturing/Optoelectronics category. In these cases, while they serve laser users, their full product range is broader in scope.
