FARMINGTON, Conn. TRUMPF Inc. opened its new laser building, the Laser Innovation & Technical Excellence (LITE) Building, for research and manufacturing of new lasers and expanding production of laser resonators.
More than 400 people participated in the ribbon cutting ceremony attended by State of Connecticut Governor Jodi Rell, Lieutenant Governor Michael Fedele, company officials, government representatives, and customers and employees. This high-tech facility will add 86,000 square feet to the existing TRUMPF Inc. campus. The building will feature a new 55,200-sq.ft. production hall and a 6,000-sq.ft., class 10,000 cleanroom designed for manufacturing and testing of CO2 and solid-state laser resonators. A laser research lab and laser development department will be dedicated to new product development. The building will also house the company's laser marking application and sales group and give the information technologies department a larger area for a server room. Approximately 120 employees will staff the new facility.
The $29 million LITE Building project began in the fall of 2006 and construction was completed in early April 2008. It is expected that move in will be complete and production underway by summer 2008.
