LUMAS K.K. Makes Waves with the Launch of NVA at Blechexpo 2025
This year at Blechexpo in Stuttgart, Germany, Tokyo-based laser technology startup
LUMAS K.K. took a bold step into the spotlight, introducing its groundbreaking product, the
Nozzle Visual Aligner (NVA). This revolutionary device has quickly garnered attention within the sheet metal fabrication industry, showcasing advanced AI technologies that promise to transform manufacturing processes.
A Game-Changer in Metal Fabrication
NVA is being hailed as the world's first visual nozzle alignment device, specifically designed to enhance the performance of laser cutting machines. Unlike conventional alignment methods, which often depend heavily on the operator’s skill and, at times, trial and error, the NVA utilizes high-speed vision recognition and sophisticated algorithms to achieve precise nozzle alignment in under a minute. This drastic reduction in setup time not only enhances productivity but also stabilizes the cutting process, making it easier for manufacturers to achieve outstanding results.
During the four-day event, attendees had the opportunity to witness live demonstrations of NVA, which was tested on various leading laser cutting machine brands. The response from professionals in the industry has been overwhelmingly positive, with many expressing enthusiasm for NVA's capabilities. Distributors and system integrators praised its compatibility with any cutting head equipped with a red laser pointer, noting that it could seamlessly integrate into existing setups without the need for extensive modifications.
Accelerating Market Expansion
With the resounding success at Blechexpo, LUMAS K.K. is strategically positioning itself for rapid expansion into the European market. The company has announced plans to establish a comprehensive distribution and service network by 2026, aiming to cover major manufacturing territories. This endeavor represents a significant step towards making advanced smart tools like NVA accessible to fabricators seeking improved efficiency and quality in their operations.
The founders of LUMAS K.K., driven by their mission to simplify manufacturing processes, noted that the positive reception of NVA is a solid foundation for their growth strategy. Having recently secured $1.5 million in its first financing round, the company is poised to innovate further and expand its product line within the laser manufacturing sector.
