Laser Photonics and Fonon Technologies Demonstrate Successful Validation of DefenseTech Laser Cleaning Products in Defense MRO
ORLANDO, FL / ACCESS Newswire / May 7, 2026 / Laser Photonics Corporation (NASDAQ:LASE) ("Laser Photonics" or the "Company"), a global leader in laser systems for industrial and defense applications, together with Fonon Technologies, an affiliated company within the LASE Group of Companies, today announced the successful pilot deployment of its DefenseTech laser cleaning within a U.S. Army depot to streamline surface preparation workflows for missile systems.
The DefenseTech Missile Laser Rust Inhibitor (MLRI) line features mobile laser-powered units specifically designed for manual surface preparation across all military branches. These systems eliminate the need for hazardous chemicals and abrasive blasting, offering streamlined maintenance processes while extending equipment lifespans. The technology is engineered to strip corrosion, anodization, and organic contaminants, returning surfaces to their pristine condition.
During operational testing at Anniston Army Depot, the DefenseTech MLRI systems demonstrated a transformative impact on maintenance workflows. The technology significantly reduced operator fatigue, noise levels, and airborne dust while drastically lowering the ecological footprint of the facility. Most notably, these improvements contributed to a measurable reduction in maintenance cycle times, accelerating asset readiness.
Matt Kime, VP of Government Sales at Fonon Technologies, commented, "By modernizing military asset maintenance with our application-specific MLRI systems, we not only advocate for sustainability but also solidify our position as the sole provider of this cutting-edge technology within the industry. Our technology's dual-axis precision supports military readiness and embodies the future of optimized maintenance processes that we believe paves the way with unrivaled solutions that competitors cannot match."
"We believe that the successful validation of our DefenseTech MLRI systems at a U.S. Army depot is a significant milestone that underscores the real-world impact of our laser technology in defense maintenance environments," said Wayne Tupuola, Chief Executive Officer of Laser Photonics. "This achievement demonstrates our ability to deliver solutions that not only meet the rigorous demands of military operations but also align with the Department of Defense's sustainability objectives. As we continue to expand our defense portfolio through the LASE Group of Companies, we remain focused on driving innovation that enhances readiness and reduces the total cost of ownership for our military customers."
