Laser machines for manufacturing ultra-precise medical devices
To meet the current and future challenges of the medical industry, as it seeks ever-greater precision with optimised cycle times, the LASEA group has designed and developed a range of laser machines and innovative solutions specifically designed in response to the needs of its Medtech customers throughout the world.
The LASEA Group employs over 180 people at 6 sites in Europe and the United States and offers a wide range of equipment at the cutting edge of micro-precision machining technology.
Our team of expert engineers masters both ultra-short pulse focused beam machining (in the femtosecond range) and UV excimer laser photoablation.
This dual expertise means we can cover the majority of industrial production processes specific to the medical sector, for which lasers have become a veritable benchmark tool.
- The LASEA Group has positioned itself as a trusted global partner for players in the medical industry looking for innovative, customised solutions.

Catheters
Our Lasea laser machines are used to cut, weld, drill, and texture various materials, with the required precision for manufacturing miniaturised medical devices.
- Drilling of calibrated holes in catheters (variable hole shape, size from a few microns to a hundred microns, materials: PEBAX, PU, Silicone, PI, PEEK, etc.)
- Stripping ablation of catheter electrodes after overmoulding operation
- Machining catheter profiles (to facilitate insertion with minimal force or insertion of a ring)
- Perforation of membranes (to control the passage of gas or liquids)
