    About Us 

    While Cambridge Technology has always been the scanning innovator and leader, the key to our market success and growth and the resultant success of our customers has been our operating principles and mission to always be your best scanning partner - yesterday, today and in tomorrow’s emerging laser application markets. 

    Our company’s keys to always being your best scanning partner are: 

    Scanning Component & Solution Innovation – Whether it’s making the smallest galvo for a hand piece, the fastest system for Via Hole drilling, powerful user friendly application software or a low cost configurations, we listen to our customer’s and the markets’ needs to enable new laser applications/markets and design the innovative products that meet those needs.  

    Worldwide Customer & Application Support – With our worldwide installed base across the complete range of laser applications, we have the local resources that you need to help integrate our products, whether it’s components or integrated solutions, into your system design for maximum performance. And, if the technical challenge is beyond the scope of our local resources then our R&D engineers can work with yours. 

    Best in Class Product Quality and Lifetimes – And, of course, after you’ve integrated our innovative products into your new system and brought it to customers and the market, then you can always depend on that Cambridge Technology consistent manufacturing product quality and lifetime that comes from our rigorous design validation and design-for-manufacturing process, our manufacturing process measurement and control, and our continuous improvement operating philosophy. 

    It’s a simple recipe and philosophy for our success but it’s one that we are completely focused on and committed to and one that has made us the market leader across such a broad range of scanning markets –

    Laser Material Processing, Laser Marking, Engraving, Drilling, Machining, Biomedical Diagnostics and Treatment, Ophthalmology, DNA Sequencing, Vision Correction, OCT, Confocal and Multi-Photon Microscopy, Industrial Laser Projection, Digital Radiography, and any other application requiring precision laser beam steering.

    Committed to Innovation, Customer Satisfaction and Quality 
    Through our continuing commitment to research and innovation, we’ve developed several key patented advances in the technology of galvanometer position detection and actuator designs. These innovations have made it possible for us to introduce products that have raised the bar for accuracy, speed, performance and reliability in scientific and OEM optical scanning solutions. Our engineers work side by side with our customer base to develop product configurations that are easy to use and integrate seamlessly into their specific applications. Our broad range of supporting products, commitment to customer service and continuous product research deliver the guarantee of quality, innovation and trust that our customers have come to expect from Cambridge Technology.
    From the first Cambridge Technology product offering, all the way to our current products line - our commitment to these standards has made us the world leader in galvanometer technology. We take pride in ourselves for keeping the values that we were built on - values that have allowed us to make our customers successful time and time again.
