Cala laser research center uses technology from Beko

When a new think tank and research center is created for medical science, vision becomes reality. This is also the case on the Garching research campus near Munich, where the laser research center Centre for Advanced Laser Applications, Cala for short, has been under construction since 2008. In its technical room, compressed air measurement systems from Beko Technologies ensure seamless monitoring.
