The freedom to create great laser machines

Newson NV, moving optics

Newson produces the two most critical components for laser machines besides the laser itself, i.e. the highest performance controller for laser machines and the most high-tech motors, that move one or two mirrors to position the light to the exact right spot.

Newson sells these components to machine manufacturers all over the world.

Newson's main purpose is to give heads of R&D and the R&D staff the freedom to create great laser machines, that offer their management a great business advantage, while making the entire tech staff super-proud on their machines.

History

Newson started off in 1988 as an engineering company. Over the years we accumulated a vast experience in all hardware and software aspects involved in signal measurement and control engineering. This experience found its way into a choice of high quality, leading edge products.

In 2001 Newson patented the rhothor™ concept, setting revolutionary new standards in laser deflection. A family of products incorporating this technology is available for the OEM market.

CONtester™, a high tech measuring unit for stress-testing of electrical contacts was first launched in 1998. An improved version became available in 2004.

Headquarters

Newson’s production and design facility is located in the middle of the triangle Brussels-Antwerp-Ghent, and 15 min walk from the railway station: Dijkstraat 84, 9200 Dendermonde, Belgium

Two original symmetrical twin mansions, designed in 1922 by architect Hubert De Maen, were completely restored and combined with new production facilities into a mixture of heritage and technology. The buildings with Art Nouveau-influences are part of the inventory list of architectural heritage of the Flanders Heritage Agency.
