Read what customers have written about us:
  • "I would like to thank you, because we really really appreciate our laser system. As a matter of fact, we are working hard with the laser and it works well. We just have to do only small adjustments per week, which is very very nice in a chemistry department, where stability and routine working are of primary importance."
  • “As a current user of your Clark CPA-2001 system and from what I have heard from other people in this field, your company will be my first option to consider in terms of both product quality and customer service when I try to buy a laser system after getting a faculty position.”
  • "I am very happy with the Clark-MXR laser that I have been using for the last 4 years. Except for some damage that it incurred during a move, it has been a great performer. Our laser is used by 5-7 groups and is running about 40-60 hours per week. I am not a laser jock and I would not want a laser that I had to hire one to operate."
  • "I just want to talk to you about possibly purchasing a second CPA system. I got a CPA-2001 in January 2001 and am very happy with it."
  • "I am extremely pleased with my CPA-2001. It works very well and with a minimum of maintenance.
  • "I can offer so far very positive experiences with the Clark fs-system. It runs very stable indeed, as stable as one could wish and it is also a very nice system."
  • "I can generate X-ray pulses using aqueous solutions and your nice laser, CPA2001. This study owes the laser everything, so I really love this laser
  • "As always, the service has been great."

Industrial controls in all our sources

In 2003 we introduced the first computer-controlled ultrafast laser system. This enabled new features and diagnostics to be designed and integrated into our laser products. The embedded controller is based on the industry-leading real-time operating system QNX RTOS, a well-established real-time version of Unix. The QNX RTOS is a secure, stable, and fault resilient operating system providing server-class security and communication while allowing multiple simultaneous clients connections. Safety is, of course, a primary concern so only one remote client can control the system while any number can monitor performance. This capability enables remote diagnostics from the company’s home office in Dexter, MI. The QNX RTOS is used in many industries and several medical devices based on the OS have received FDA approval.

The QNX RTOS implemented in our ultrafast products is backed by years of proven performance in the field. And since the operating system and software are Unix based, communication can be made to virtually any device independent of third party support or drivers. Microsoft Windows, Mac OSX (Intel only), and Apple iPhone clients are also available. See for example “
