Cobolt AB develop, manufacture and supply high performance diode-pumped lasers and modulated laser diodes in the UV, visible and near-infrared spectral ranges. The company's laser products are key enabling components in advanced analytical instrumentation equipment used in life science, process control and industrial metrology applications. The customer base is highly international, consisting of leading instrument manufacturers and research labs worldwide.
Cobolt was founded in 2000 and has its headquarters in Solna, Sweden. Since December 2015, Cobolt AB is a fully owned subsidiary of the HÜBNER Group; a market- leading supplier of industrial mobility solutions for the transport industry recently branching into photonics.
Cobolt AB supply cutting-edge compact lasers with exceptional optical performance specifications and proven reliability and lifetime capability for OEM integration into analytical instrumentation for process control, biomedical research, clinical diagnosis and industrial metrology, as well as for scientific research. Applications within these market include Raman spectroscopy, interferometry, particle analysis, laser Doppler velocimetry, fluorescence microscopy, flow cytometry, LIBS, laser ultrasonics and trace gas analysis.
Cobolt lasers are all high performance lasers, typically with single frequency performance, excellent power stability, perfect beams and very low noise. All Cobolt lasers are manufactured using proprietary HTCure(tm) technology and the resulting compact hermetically sealed package provides a very high level of immunity to varying environmental conditions along with exceptional reliability. Lasers built using the HTCure(tm) technology have been shown to withstand multiple 60G mechanical shocks in operation without any sign of degraded performance. With demonstrated lifetime capability of >60,000 hours and thousands of installed units in the field, HTCure(tm) has proven to be one of the most reliable methods for making industrial-grade lasers and is reflected with market leading warranty terms.
Our head office is located in Stockholm, Sweden, where all production, R&D, administration and sales is conducted in a top-modern facility, including a >700 m2 clean room environment.
