Turkey's First Laser Chip To Be Exported
Turkey's first domestic laser chip, manufactured by Ermaksan company, which has been operating in Bursa for more than half a century and has a kilogram value of $ 2 million, will be exported.
Ermaksan was able to produce Turkey's first national laser chip in the Optoelectronics R & D Center, which he established with his own engineering experience in Bursa Organized Industrial Zone. The laser chip, which has a Kilogram value of $ 2 million, will be exported.
The company is able to produce laser power supply (resonator) and lighting technologies (LED) and technologies used in many areas of life such as electronics, defense industry, space technologies, and medicine thanks to the existing infrastructure of the laser chip production in question, and exports high-tech products to many countries. Ermaksan Makina Sanayi Ve Ticaret A. ş.general manager Ahmet Özkayan, Turkey's first semiconductor factory has carried out production, he said.
Stating that they give a lot of importance to R & D, Özkayan said, "We are producing machinery but we were importing many high-tech products. As Ermaksan, we have directed our investments in the field of high technology. Our goal was to produce technology, to produce added value, and to get rid of an external dependency that might arise in this regard. Thank God we made it. It's a difficult issue, a very different investment., "he said.
"WE WILL EXPORT THIS YEAR"
Turkey's first laser chip in Bursa they managed to produce expressed Ahmet Özkayan, said::
"We make laser chips here. We replicate them and convert them into diode modules. Then we build high-power resonators. For example, a power of 14 thousand watts, 30-35 millimeter iron material can cut. Laser resonators convert electrical energy into a laser beam. We produce resonators here, 100 percent domestically, from its chip. We use it in our own machines, we give it to our domestic manufacturers. We export to Germany. This is a very important investment for Turkey in terms of high technology. We are one of 3 companies that produce in this way in the world."
Özkayan stated that the value of these chips is 2 million dollars, "our goal for this year is to export only as chips. If we achieve this, it will be the first in Turkey. We are currently in talks with some countries. I hope we will export this year, " he said.
