Following this was validating these findings, assumptions, and sizing with the industry experts across the value chain through primary research. Both top-down and bottom-up approaches were employed to estimate the overall size of the laser technology market. Subsequently, market breakdown and data triangulation procedures were used to determine the extent of different segments and subsegments of the market.
Secondary Research
Secondary sources in this research study include corporate filings (such as annual reports, investor presentations, and financial statements); trade, business, and professional associations; white papers, certified publications, articles from recognized authors; directories; and databases. The secondary data were collected and analyzed to estimate the overall market size, further validated by primary research. The relevant data is collected from various secondary sources, it is analyzed to extract insights and information relevant to the market research objectives. This analysis has involved summarizing the data, identifying trends, and drawing conclusions based on the available information.
Primary Research
In the primary research process, numerous sources from both the supply and demand sides were interviewed to obtain qualitative and quantitative information about this report. The primary sources from the supply side included various industry experts such as Chief X Officers (CXOs), Vice Presidents (VPs), and Directors from business development, marketing, product development/innovation teams, and related key executives from laser technology providers, (such as Coherent, Trumpf, Han’s Laser Technology Industry Group Co., Ltd, IPG Photonics and Jenoptik AG) research organizations, distributors, professional and managed service providers, industry associations, and key opinion leaders. Approximately 25% of the primary interviews were conducted with the demand side and 75% with the supply side. These data were collected mainly through questionnaires, emails, and telephonic interviews, accounting for 80% of the primary interviews.
Note: Other designations include sales, marketing, and product managers.
The three tiers of the companies have been defined based on their total revenue as of 2022; tier 1: revenue greater than USD 20 million, tier 2: revenue between USD 20 million and USD 10 million, and tier 3: revenue less than USD 10 million.

Market Size Estimation
In the market engineering process, both top-down and bottom-up approaches were implemented, along with several data triangulation methods, to estimate and validate the size of the laser technology market and other dependent submarkets listed in this report.
Data Triangulation
After estimating the overall market size, the total market was split into several segments. The market breakdown and data triangulation procedures were employed wherever applicable to complete the overall market engineering process and gauge exact statistics for all segments. The data were triangulated by studying various factors and trends from both the demand and supply sides. The market was also validated using both top-down and bottom-up approaches.
Market Definition
Laser stands for light amplification by stimulated emission of radiation (LASER). Laser technology-based devices generate a beam of light, which is coherent, monochromatic, and aligned. They generate light through optical amplification based on the stimulated emission of electromagnetic radiation. The wavelength of laser light is purer compared to other light sources. Unlike other light sources, all the photons that develop the laser beam have a fixed-phase relationship. The light beam generated from a laser source has low divergence. Laser technology-based systems find applications in optical communication, cutting, drilling, printing, and marking and engraving. The verticals that use laser technology include commercial, telecommunications, research, aerospace & defense, healthcare, automotive, semiconductor & electronics, industrial, and others (oil & gas, iron & steel, tobacco, glass, wood, retail, and plastics).
