Hylax Technology is the biggest industrial laser application and process development center in South East Asia. Our large customer base includes applications in the electronics, semicon, flat panel displays, hard disk, plastics, biotech, jewellery and machining industries.

Hylax Technology was formerly known as Hypertronics(Singapore). Hypertronics was established in 1991 to sell and service NEC laser equipment into the ASEAN and India regions. Subsequently it decided to become independent to design and built it's own laser equipment for a variety of applications in many industries like semicon, flat panel display, hard disk, electronics and biotech. It also developed the ability to manufacture DPSS laser sources using it's own innovation in collaboration with SIM Tech, a Singapore Research Institute. Besides this it also set up branches in countries like Malaysia, Thailand, China, Taiwan and USA.

After growing for more than 20 years Hypertronics was acquired by Coherent (USA) as a base to establish it's presence in Singapore. Subsequently Coherent decided to spin off a segment of Hypertronics business, namely the assembly and servicing of laser process equipment which was incorporated as a separate company called Hylax Technology. Hylax Technology was also given the charter to support Hypertronics' customers and repair or retrofit old equipment and machine tools sold by Hypertronics previously.
