Pacific Precision Laboratories, Inc ( formerly, JMAR Precision Systems, Inc ) was founded in 1985 with the goal to design and manufacture precision electromechanical platforms and custom engineered systems for the disk drive industry. In later years, PPL introduced Optical Inspection Systems with their proprietary Video-CMM software for the microelectronics and disk drive industries. In 1993, the company was acquired by JMAR Industries, Inc ( NASDAQ: JMAR ) and the name was changed to JMAR Precision Systems, Inc The following year the company expanded to the manufacturing of Excimer laser processing systems. In 1995 and 1996 respectively, the Mirage table-top system and Disk Inspection System were introduced. The company continued to strengthen its relationship with its customers in producing custom engineered systems and solutions. New products introduced in 1999 include Lumina and VCMM-II . In July of 2003, the company was spun off from JMAR Technologies, Inc and was acquired by a private investment group.
