analytical & measurement systems.

Developing next-generation analytical equipment comes with a fundamental challenge: translating advanced measurement principles into highly accurate, reliable, and manufacturable systems that perform consistently under increasingly complex and demanding (real-world) conditions. We co-develop these advanced analytical instruments and measurement systems for OEMs.

With our deep expertise and engineering capabilities, we support the full development chain: from sensor or module development and system architecture to precision mechanics, control, algorithms and industrialization - while customers retain full IP ownership.

 

drive scaling and industrialization for your portfolio.

We jointly develop analytical systems based on your specific requirements. With a clear path towards scalable and production-ready systems.

Combining your application knowledge with our expertise in physics, system engineering and multidisciplinary design to translate measurement principles into robust systems. Our engineering capabilities cover physics, mechatronics, control, as well as advanced modeling and simulation, including broad expertise in demanding environments such as vacuum, high temperature and cryogenic conditions. This includes analytical systems for spectroscopic, crystallographic, morphological, topological material characterization.

This enables the realization of analytical systems from concept to production, ranging from sensor-based devices, sample preparation and metrology tools to fully integrated instruments and measurement platforms. All foreground IP remaining with the customer.

Measuring the nearly unmeasurable

TNO and TU Eindhoven developed the Nanomefos platform that was capable of measuring freeform lenses with 8 to 10 nm accuracy. Demcon took this as the starting point to develop a completely made-over commercial system.

full-service engineering partner

every technical problem can be solved.

We act as a development and realization partner, combining deep system engineering with practical industrialization experience. For our customers, this means shorter development cycles, lower technical and integration risk, and measurement performance that holds in real-world operation - not just in the lab.

Our analytical and metrology systems are designed to move from concept to reliable production: scalable, manufacturable, serviceable, and fully aligned with your product roadmap. All foreground IP remains with the customer. No lock‑in, no proprietary dependencies.

OUR SERVICES

We are a full-service engineering partner for the development, industrialization and manufacturing of customized mechatronic systems and modules in the fields of Semcion, Quantum and Photonics.
