History

The company founder, Jeff Dulaney, earned his Ph.D. in Physics at the University of Pittsburgh in 1986, then worked at Battelle Columbus Laboratory from 1987 to 1994 as a physicist in the laser department. He helped design and build the first industrial laser shock peening system for Wagner Laser Technologies in the early 1990s. Dr. Dulaney acquired Battelle’s laser shock peening patent rights and formed LSP Technologies, Inc. in February 1995. Dr. Allan Clauer, an original patent holder of the laser peening process, and a Battelle inventor of the laser shock peening process, joined LSPT as Vice-President later in 1995.
In 1996 to 1999, LSPT assembled and delivered three high power ND: Glass laser peening systems to General Electric Aviation in Cincinnati, Ohio. LSPT also won several Small Business Innovation Research awards for laser peening, laser bond inspection, and laser land mine neutralization. In March 2003 LSPT began production laser peen processing on 4th stage IBR in Pratt & Whitney’s F119 engine for the F-22 Raptor. In 2009 LSPT began laser peening production services for power generation and forging industries. In 2012, LSPT delivered a laser bond inspection system to the Boeing Company in Seattle, WA.
LSPT is an AS9100 certified company for Laser Processing Services and Equipment Design.
