Global Ultrafast Lasers Market to Reach $1.9 Billion by 2026
Laser technology exudes potential to reshape the manufacturing domain by enabling enhanced precision, efficiency and fast production while reducing material consumption. Lasers deliver unmatched speed, efficiency and precision to facilitate groundbreaking production processes, enabling the technology to emerge as a universal approach for manufacturers. The technology allows companies in the aerospace and automotive sectors to conform with stringent quality and performance standards. Lasers offer a sustainable and more efficient tool in comparison to other traditional processes and tools. The ability of lasers to transform and manipulate materials makes it an intriguing option for the clothing, computer and automobile industries. Lasers provide semiconductor manufacturers with an advanced approach for clean and fast cutting of different materials. Lasers are perfect cutting tools and offer high precision even with irregular shapes while considerably reducing surface roughness. Lasers are widely employed for marking metals, printed circuit boards, polymers and silicon wafers to support traceability. Lasers are also used in the packaging sector for marking, scribing and perforating applications.
Amid the COVID-19 crisis, the global market for Ultrafast Lasers estimated at US$1.2 Billion in the year 2020, is projected to reach a revised size of US$1.9 Billion by 2026, growing at a CAGR of 8.5% over the analysis period. Fiber Lasers, one of the segments analyzed in the report, is projected to grow at a 9.3% CAGR to reach US$954.2 Million by the end of the analysis period.
