Who we are

Our mission is to help manufacturers increase productivity and gain a technological advantage by providing cutting-edge and precise material processing solutions.

With Synova’s water jet guided Laser MicroJet technology, we empower businesses worldwide to expand their processing capabilities, reduce costs, and achieve superior cutting quality, even when working with the most complex materials.

About us

How it works

A Revolutionary Precision Solution

Laser MicroJet (LMJ) technology uniquely combines a green laser with a hair-thin water jet that precisely guides the laser beam through total internal reflection. This unique, water jet guided laser technology ensures smooth, clean and precise material processing.

Technology Benefits

High quality and precision

The workpiece is machined with high mechanical precision, low surface roughness, without micro-cracks and structural changes.

No heat damage

The water effectively reduces heat generation and ensures a clean cutting surface, free of deposits and burrs.

Parallel cut walls

The cylindrical laser beam produces tight, parallel kerfs (>30 µm) without taper.
