Successful Year 2001
|
|
|
In our first full year since separation from our distributor, Cameca, we have established a global sales organisation, published many new sales and technical documents, attended Exhibitions world-wide, and become the largest supplier of high-end TOF-SIMS instruments.
Our sales organisation includes a subsidiary in the USA and agencies in many countries. Customers and potential customers all have access to a local contact address. We are working very closely with our agents to provide a professional commercial service to the market place.
The range of sales and technical documents published includes instrument presentations, application notes, specifications and configuration suggestions, all designed to keep the market informed of the benefits and performance of our TOF-SIMS products. To obtain documents or speak to someone in our organisation, please go to the Contact page.

ION-TOF takes over its own worldwide marketing from CAMECA
|
|
|
In the last few days ION-TOF users have been informed personally that their future instrument requirements will be handled by ION-TOF. The co-operation with Cameca S.A. in Paris, the current marketing agent, will be terminated after a short transition period.
Dr Ewald Niehuis, technical director and co-founder of the company, says:
“ION-TOF GmbH has grown rapidly over recent years and is now a mature company with about 50 employees. We have reliable high performance products and over 60 installations worldwide. We have established an after sales service organisation which supports the customers worldwide, and which provides service direct to the European users.
The time is right for us to create our own marketing and selling activity, to have direct contact with the market place, to improve our understanding of the market requirements and to improve our efficiency. We shall carry on offering a high quality of product, reflecting the need of the market as a whole and the requirements of the individual user. We shall carry on developing the products to give improved performance and more applications. We shall continue the series of innovations arising from the co-operation on fundamental research with the University of Muenster and on analytical applications with TASCON GmbH. We have some exciting developments in our future program.
The capability and applications of the TOF-SIMS technique continues to expand and we shall be at the forefront of innovation.”

New Premises for ION-TOF
|
|
|
The increasing number of TOF-SIMS IV being sold has meant an increase in the number of staff and the space required, in particular, for Production, R&D and Sales. As those of you who have visited us will have noticed, the building in which we are presently located in not suitable for our expansion, and so for some time now we have been planning a new building, purpose designed for us, to be built close by. This will enable us maintain our scientific links with the University and take advantage of the facilities of the science park where we are at present located. The planning stage is advanced and building will start early next year.
