On 13 Feb, 2012, we visited IPG Photonics (www.ipgphotonics.com/) in Oxford,
MA. The company is about 40 minutes from UConn.
IPG Photonics is the world's leading provider of high power fiber lasers and fiber
amplifiers that are revolutionizing performance and utility in a remarkable array
of materials processing, telecommunications, medical and other advanced
applications. IPG Photonics Ranked #6 Small Company in America by Forbes
Magazine.
Our visit started in the show room, then a brief tour of the facility, meeting with
sales VP and people from the scientific lasers unit. Lunch was served by the
company. The trip is helpful to UConn Chapter members, especially graduate
students who are interested in the work at the company.
