Recently, Excelitas, a leading company known for its expertise in optical technology, met with important stakeholders in the industry
during its visit to Turkey. Today, optical technology plays an important role in many areas of our lives, offering innovations and advances that revolutionize many industries. Optics is a discipline that focuses on the nature and properties of light, and optical technology has various applications in areas such as the control, detection, processing and transmission of light.
Excelitas is a technology leader that offers high-performance market oriented photonic innovations aiming to meet the lighting, optical, optronic, sensing and sensing/imaging needs of global customers. The company offers products and services for a wide range of applications in automotive, consumer products, defense/aerospace, industrial, medical, safety/security and science industries. The importance that Turkey attaches to optical studies in the military and scientific fields not only ensures the country’s security by increasing its independence in the defense industry, but also encourages scientific and technological progress and contributes to the country’s economic development. Optical technologies also offer a huge potential in industrial applications, and investments made in this field increase the country's
competitiveness by supporting innovation and employment.
In this context, the visits paid by Excelitas through Özdisan should be seen as important steps taken to contribute to the development of optical technology of both companies in Turkey and strengthen the cooperations in the industry. Özdisan, the distributor of Excelitas products in Turkey, not only supplies the existing products to the customers but also takes the lead in presenting products that have not been manufactured before but have been planned as potential products at “new product idea” and “feasibility” stages. For instance, Excelitas officials introduced, during their visit, the 1550 Nm 100W laser diode that they had developed upon the requests of Özdisan customers. They also introduced the CMOS cameras, another product series, to Turkey’s science developing companies, aiming to contribute to the progress of scientific researches. This visit clearly shows how Excelitas’ continuous investments in technology and innovative approaches can support the customers.
