Synova

Crunchbase Website Twitter Facebook Linkedin

SYNOVA’s story begins with the invention of the water jet guided laser developed in the 1990s at the Federal Institute of Technology (EPFL) in Lausanne, Switzerland, made by PhD student Bernold Richerzhagen. This innovation resolved a number of well-known problems associated with existing cutting technologies in industrial applications.

Consequently, Synova was founded by Richerzhagen in 1997 in Lausanne to make the patented Laser MicroJet (LMJ) technology available to high-tech industrial manufacturers. Since 1998, various industries worldwide have switched to this laser process for their production needs.

In addition, the particular advantages have led to a number of new applications such as in the domain of sensitive material processing where Synova was the first company to introduce the laser into semiconductor wafer dicing in 2001. Since 2003, the company established wholly owned local subsidiaries in the USA, Japan, India and Korea for optimized customer support.

These have since been expanded to include micro-machining centers (MMCs) with Taiwan and China planned for the future. SYNOVA presently has 75 employees including 35 engineers focused primarily on researching new material cutting solutions, further applications and laser cutting equipment.

Aside from research, both the final assembly and testing of up to 100 machines a year are performed in Synova’s modern, 1800 square meter facility in Duillier. In 2010 Synova successfully entered the gem diamond cutting business.

Subsequently, the company was strategically re-organized according to market segments forming three distinct business units: Diamonds, Semiconductors and Metal Industry. SYNOVA has established several partnerships with leading industrial machine manufacturers for the production of LMJ machines, most recently with Makino.
