Laser Photonics Corporation (NASDAQ: LASE) (“LPC”), a leading
global developer of industrial laser systems for cleaning and other
material processing applications, joined by its recently acquired
subsidiary, Control Micro Systems, Inc. (CMS), announced today the
expansion of its tablet laser drilling technology development
program targeting the pharmaceutical and medical technology
market.
Tablet laser drilling is a proven, economically viable way to
create sub-millimeter apertures in pharmaceutical tablets. This
method plays a key role in osmotic pump time-release drug delivery
systems, which provide many health benefits like decreasing dosing
frequencies, maintaining consistent drug levels in the body over a
specific period and enabling customized delivery profiles.
The Tablet Laser Drilling technology by CMS provides an
automated, high-speed process capable of drilling up to 140,000
tablets per hour with orifices as small as 200 microns. This
technology is engineered to achieve precise dimensional tolerances
for osmotic pump tablets and related drug delivery systems, making
laser drilling the preferred method for modern pharmaceutical
tablet production. Machine vision technology for visual inspection
ensures quality and alignment, checking each tablet twice for hole
position, size, and/or number before reaching the collection bin.
Rejection of produced tablets is rare due to the precision of the
system, and any failed tablets are speedily ejected into separate
bins.
For LPC, established as a trusted provider of industrial laser
equipment, pharmaceutical and medical technologies is a new sector
of focus. Supplemented by CMS expertise, LPC is dedicating
resources to research and development in this sector in accordance
with its broad diversification strategy, poised to contribute to
growing shareholder value and foster greater resilience in evolving
markets.
“With the expansion of R&D and the integration of CMS
expertise, we can rapidly advance our product offerings to meet the
high demands of the pharmaceutical industry,” said Wayne Tupuola,
CEO of LPC. “Our focus on precision and efficiency is transforming
drug delivery systems, ensuring optimal performance and patient
safety. We are committed to driving forward the future of
pharmaceutical manufacturing with cutting-edge solutions that
enhance patient outcomes and streamline production processes.”
