IPG Photonics is the leading developer and manufacturer of high-performance fiber lasers and amplifiers for diverse applications in numerous markets. Diverse lines of low, medium and high-power lasers and amplifiers are used in materials processing, communications, entertainment, medical, biotechnology, scientific and advanced applications with many new products displacing traditional technologies. IPG products are available globally for OEMs, system integrators and end users across a wide range of industries. Highly vertically integrated development and manufacturing capabilities enable IPG to meet customer requirements, accelerate development, manage costs and improve component yields, while maintaining high performance and quality standards. IPG operates globally with manufacturing facilities in the U.S., Germany, Russia and Italy, and regional sales offices in China, Japan, Korea, Taiwan, India, Turkey, Brazil, Mexico, Singapore, Spain, Poland, Czech Republic, Canada, and the United Kingdom. |
IPG was founded in 1991 by physicist Valentin P. Gapontsev, Ph.D., a pioneer in the field of fiber lasers and recipient of various awards. IPG originally made and sold customized glass and crystal lasers, wireless temperature meters for hyperthermy and laser components. In 1992, the company began focusing on the development of high-power fiber lasers and amplifiers receiving its first major contract from telecommunications carrier Italtel. IPG then won a second major contract from DaimlerBenz Aerospace. The company opened a facility in Germany in 1994 and established World Headquarters in the USA in 1998. In 2000, IPG invested in new high-capacity production facilities in USA to manufacture its own laser diode pumps, a major component of its fiber lasers and amplifiers. The company went public in 2006 and is listed on the NASDAQ Global Select Market under the ticker IPGP. In May 2021, Dr. Gapontsev stepped down due to health concerns and was succeeded by Dr. Eugene Scherbakov as CEO. Dr. Gapontsev passed away in October of 2021 as a man who was universally admired for his vision and success in scientific innovations married to entrepreneurial drive over the last thirty years. He was a passionate leader for IPG, leaving indelible marks on everything and everyone he touched. Learn more about the life of Dr. Gapontsev, his awards and recognitions. |
