Melles Griot and Coherent sign limited distribution agreement

June 22--Recently Melles Griot signed a limited global distribution agreement allowing for distribution of some of Coherent's Laser Measurement and Control (LMC) product line. Products include a wide range of LMC's power-, energy-, and wavelength-measuring instrumentation in the new Melles Griot Catalog X, which was introduced at Laser Munich 2005.

The agreement not only enables Melles Griot to expand significantly its offering of power- and energy-measurement products, but also gives LMC access to the marketing power of the Melles Griot catalog, a comprehensive source of photonics components.

"This distribution relationship between Melles Griot and Coherent's LMC product line takes advantage of two industry-renowned brands in one highly accessible format," notes Jacky Byatt, general manager of the Melles Griot Photonics Components Group.
