Lumetrics, Inc. Expanding Thickness Measurement Capabilities with Move to New Facilities

Date Announced: 08 Sep 2011

Rochester, NY- September 8, 2011- Lumetrics, Inc., a leading manufacturer of world-class precision thickness measurement technology is expanding its operation with a move to a new facility at Eagle’s Landing in Henrietta.

Lumetrics, in its eighth year of operation has seen significant growth over the years and has outgrown its current space in the Lennox Tech Enterprise Center. “At our current size and with the project growth we see over the next 2-3 years we need more space” said John Hart, President. “Our customers are requesting larger and more complex systems and we need to accommodate the staging and testing that they require as well as the resources to develop and manufacture these systems”.

Lumetrics saw a greater than 50% growth in revenue from 2009 to 2010 and the current year is projected to continue that growth. In addition to their OptiGauge based measurement systems, primarily sold to the medical and ophthalmic industries, Lumetrics has significant R&D resources involved in development of cutting edge products. They were recently granted a patent on technology for evaluating the internal structure of human eye.

“With our success in obtaining Small Business Innovation Research grants and turning those grants into products, and the development of our core OptiGauge technology, especially in the medical market, we need more centralized space“, said Hart.

Lumetrics has numerous systems in 6 of the top 11 medical device makers in the world, as well as many other customers, and is rapidly becoming the measurement standard for measurement of balloons, catheters, and other medical products. The 10,000 sq ft space will allow expansion of manufacturing, Lumetrics core engineering technology, and research and development.
