Laser Photonics Secures Order via Grainger for Massachusetts Bay Transportation Authority Use

Advanced Laser Photonics Technology to Support MBTA Operations

Laser Photonics Corporation (LPC) (NASDAQ: LASE), a leading global developer of industrial laser systems for cleaning and material processing, announced today that it has received an order for a CleanTech Industrial Roughening Laser 3040 (CTIR-3040) through W.W. Grainger, Inc. Grainger, a leading distributor of maintenance, repair and operating (MRO) products with operations in North America, Japan and the United Kingdom, will supply this laser to the Massachusetts Bay Transportation Authority (MBTA).

MBTA is the public agency responsible for operating most public transportation services in Greater Boston, Mass., and parts of Rhode Island. The Authority manages subway, bus, commuter rail, ferry, and paratransit systems, along with their share of the 100 supporting parking lots and garages located near the subway, commuter rail and ferry stations that make up the MBTA transportation network.

We are thrilled about working with MBTA and are happy to see our system continue to gain traction in the transportation market,” said Wayne Tupuola, CEO of LPC. “Our laser cleaning technology provides professionals with an efficient solution for corrosion control, coating removal and the preservation of critical infrastructure.”

The LPC CTIR-3040 will be delivered to one of MBTA’s Maintenance Facilities, from which it will be used on all that line’s stations, platforms, transit bridges, rail tunnels, elevators, vehicles, carriages, sidings, yards, maintenance “carhouses,” bus maintenance buildings, train layover facilities, rail crossings, parking gates, electronic signage systems, art exhibition display units and more. The system will be used for everything from construction and maintenance tool cleaning to removing rust and corrosion on all sorts of surfaces, including—when necessary—tracks themselves. The system will expedite and simplify cleaning, surface preparation, and surface conditioning while streamlining operations.

The CTIR-3040 is among LPC’s most robust handheld laser systems, designed for high-speed and efficient heavy-duty surface treatments. This sale strengthens LPC’s growing relationship with Grainger, which distributes a wide range of industrial products through its extensive global network.

Grainger serves more than 4.5 million customers worldwide, including businesses and enterprises of various sizes across numerous industries. This sale through Grainger to the MBTA increases LPC’s presence in North America while boosting the brand’s visibility among industry professionals.
