Luxium Solutions successfully closed the acquisition of PLX Inc. today. The addition of PLX augments Luxium’s portfolio of detection enabling technologies with PLX’s sub-arc second Boresighting, photonic alignment and beam steering capabilities.    Headquartered in Deer Park, New York, PLX is a leading designer and manufacturer of high-precision optical assemblies and products for the defense and aerospace sectors as well as other industries. PLX’s solutions are deployed in a range of harsh environments and high-end applications where structural integrity and accuracy over time are critical, such as Military Fire Control Systems, Boresighting, Beam Alignment and Delivery Systems, Laser Tracking, Environmental Monitoring, Metrology, and Satellite Ranging.    By combining Luxium’s existing proficiencies in applied material sciences with PLX’s proprietary monolithic optical structure (M.O.S.T.) and Active Optics technologies, we look forward to an accretive partnership, enabling an expanded range of offerings for our valued customers.   We extend a warm welcome to our PLX colleagues as they join the Luxium Solutions team!

Luxium Solutions takes deep pride in enabling US defense. Our Sapphire-based armored windows have been protecting warfighters in ground vehicles for over a decade. At our plant in Milford, NH; we grow large sheets of Sapphire, the hardest transparent material, second only to diamond. These sheets provide an extremely hard and abrasion-resistant strike face that ‘breaks’ the projectile upon impact. The sapphire windows meet a variety of threat levels at reduced weight and thickness while providing improved situational awareness in both the visual and IR spectra.

Luxium Solutions will acquire Inrad Optics to strengthen its foothold in the photonics world. Through new technologies like X-Ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy (XPS), we look forward to enhancing our impact in the Aerospace and Defense, Metrology, and Industrial markets. This development closely follows Luxium's recent acquisition of PLX Inc. Please follow this link for details https://lnkd.in/eJGPbYP5

And now, a new chapter for Luxium Solutions. A new path towards bigger horizons!

Luxium Solutions enables exploration of minerals critical for a new energy future. Through a variety of radiation detection techniques, we optimize the process to locate and identify mineral reserves. To learn more, meet Luxium Solutions' team members at SME #minexchange2024 in Phoenix, Arizona; at PDAC Mining Convention, Toronto, Canada. #geoplogicalexploration #geologicalmapping #newenergy https://lnkd.in/eRvE6f2K https://lnkd.in/dCNmu-P

The shining stars of Luxium Solutions! At our kick-off event in January, we honored those who contributed significantly to Luxium's growth in the past year. Russ Wooddell and Mario Pérez both received the Robert Hofstadter award for overall sales excellence and Kitty Li & Dake Qian were honored for sales growth in China. Maxwell Meneer and KR Manjunathaswamy received the Impact award for operational excellence at our sites in the US and India respectively. We are grateful for their work and proud of them all!   For the curious - Robert Hofstadter (1915-1990) was a American physicist who won the 1961 Nobel Prize along with Rudolf Mössbauer for his unique contribution to Nuclear Physics. And yes, Leonard Hofstadter from the sitcom Big Bang Theory is indeed named after Robert Hofstadter.
