The LiM - Lasers in Manufacturing is the perfect platform for efficient knowledge transfer in the field of lasers and their applications. The LiM is organized by the German Scientific Society for Lasers and Photonics (WLT).
The LiM is devoted to scientific presentations on the latest research results. Following the common code of good scientific practice the presentations shall be complete, comprehensible, and verifiable.
All contributions for the LiM will undergo a review process by the scientific committee.
The LiM focuses on the latest developments as well as future trends in the field of laser materials processing. The conference topics address anyone who is interested in the potential of lasers in manufacturing in theory and application.
It is the aim of the LiM to bring together international experts from research and industry in order to match scientific advances and economic needs for mutual benefit.
The LiM is a part of the World of Photonics Congress. This allows to coordinate joint sessions in order to highlight topics at the interface of the thematic areas covered by the participating conferences.
We invite you to join LiM and be a part of our international community sharing ideas in inspiring talks and discussions.
Conference Fees
Included are the digital conference proceedings, the LiM social event, visit of the trade fair, and participation at all World of Photonics Congress conferences.
