LAFOX, Ill., April 22, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Richardson Electronics, Ltd. (NASDAQ: RELL), a global provider of engineered solutions, today announced that its LaserSlat SAVER™ is now available to customers in Brazil. This expansion provides fabricators in Latin America with a proven solution to reduce downtime, improve cut quality, and extend the lifespan of laser-cutting tables.
The LaserSlat SAVER™ is an innovative, eco-friendly solution designed to keep laser cutting slats clean and maintain them efficiently and effectively. By reducing slag buildup and restoring slat surfaces, our product helps maintain optimal cutting performance while minimizing the need for time-consuming mechanical slat cleaning and significantly reducing the frequency of slat replacement. The eco-friendly solution also supports environmentally responsible operations by using a safe cleaning approach that avoids hazardous chemicals while maintaining high performance. This results in reduced operational costs and increased machine uptime for manufacturers.
“With the introduction of the LaserSlat SAVER™ in Brazil, we are bringing a highly effective productivity solution to one of the largest manufacturing markets in the region,” said Greg Peloquin, Executive Vice President and General Manager of Power & Microwave Technologies and Green Energy Solutions groups. “Brazilian fabricators can now benefit from improved cutting consistency, lower maintenance costs, and extended equipment life.”
The system is compatible with a wide range of laser cutting machines and is designed for ease of use, allowing operators to quickly clean slats without removing them from the table. This streamlined process reduces labor requirements and keeps production running efficiently.
Richardson Electronics continues to invest in expanding its engineered solutions portfolio globally, supporting customers with technologies that enhance performance and reliability in demanding industrial environments.
Richardson Electronics will showcase the LaserSlat SAVER™ at FEIMEC 2026, taking place May 5–9, 2026, in São Paulo, Brazil. Attendees are invited to visit booth E030 to learn how the solution can improve laser-cutting operations.
