What Loomis Customers Have to Say

The sweetest III-V materials cleaving partner you could ask for.

Helia Photonics

After a 21 year loving relationship with the LSD-100, it was time to move on to a younger, slicker model. The Loomis LSD-155lt doesn’t disappoint, with more features, functions and automation. It opens up new processes, higher precision and a higher throughput. To me, this is the sweetest III-V materials cleaving partner you could ask for.

Smooth and effective – 5 star company

Banyan Photonics

5 star company. We bought the Loomis 155(LSD-155) cleaver in 2022, and everything from setup to installation to training was smooth and effective from our expert Jesus Pareja. We use the cleaver for die singulation where it can do up to 33 bars with a speed of 5 mins/bar. On top of that, they were generous enough to help us troubleshoot our older cleaver the Loomis 100 and service it and both cleavers run very well. We found that everything from the simplest of inquiries or even complicated ones were met with swift answers. Loomis even provided slides/pictures to guide us through how to overcome any problems we faced. Our operations need to run with minimal supervision and with 100% accuracy and we can definitely say that the cleaver once set up will operate with no supervision and with no problems whatsoever.

Thoroughly pleased with performance and prompt, exceptional support

University of California at Santa Barbara Nano Fabrication facility (NanoFab)

Despite my extensive experience in cleanroom environments and working with numerous tools over 18 years, the Loomis LSD-155LT installation stood out as one of the most thorough and comprehensive installs I’ve been a part of. Erik and Jesus were incredibly professional and helpful throughout the entire cradle-to-grave process.

The phone and email support provided have been exceptional, promptly addressing any issues or questions that arose. I am thoroughly pleased with both the performance of the LSD-155LT and the ongoing support received from Loomis.
