Laser Photonics Corporation (LPC) (NASDAQ: LASE), a leading global developer of industrial laser systems for cleaning and other material processing applications, announced today that it is attending and sponsoring this year's Acceleration Summit: National Center for Manufacturing Sciences (NCMS) Technology Showcase.

Set to take place from March 20 to March 22 in Newport News, Virginia, the summit brings together industry professionals and academic partners in the shipbuilding space to network and share the innovative technology they have that can be used to support U.S. Naval shipbuilding. The event is co-hosted by the technology development consortium NCMS and Newport News Shipbuilding (NNS), a division of Huntington Ingalls Industries (HII), the nation's largest shipbuilder.

“For Laser Photonics, the Acceleration Summit: NCMS Technology Showcase is a valuable opportunity to present our innovative solutions to the naval industry. We thank NCMS and NNS for providing a forum where LPC and other innovators can present their technologies that can be useful to the U.S. Navy,” said Wayne Tupuola, CEO of Laser Photonics.

At the Acceleration Summit: NCMS Technology Showcase, LPC will bring a selection of its laser systems, including the CleanTech 2000-CTHD plus the newest version of its CleanTech 1500-CTHD. The CleanTech 1500-CTHD has been updated to a much smaller and more portable form factor. LPC will also highlight its marine laser cleaning system the MARLIN, an innovative technology targeting the needs of shipbuilding and boat manufacturing professionals. Lastly, LPC will also be bringing its DefenseTech military-focused laser systems to the event.

Those who attend Booth 12 at the summit will be able to witness LPC's laser cleaning systems in action. The opportunity will also present professionals with the chance to learn about how the company's technology can help with corrosion and coating removal, as well as optimize their MRO processes. LPC will also educate attendees on its full portfolio of industrial-grade laser systems for material processing, including the WeldTech, MarkStar, and other products.

NCMS is one of the largest cross-industry collaborative R&D consortiums in North America, driving innovation in commercial, defense and robotics manufacturing. NNS is the nation's sole designer, builder and refueler of nuclear-powered aircraft carriers and one of only two shipyards capable of designing and building nuclear-powered submarines. Laser Photonics is proud to connect with key players in the shipbuilding industry, enhance its current relationships, tap into emerging markets, and develop exciting new prospects.
