Bowman China Applied Scientific Instruments exhibits August 25-28 at the 29th International Electronics Circuit Exhibition ("CPCA") at Shanghai's National Exhibition and Convention Center. Bowman China will demonstrate the P Series XRF, a benchtop instrument distinctive in its ability to measure the widest range of sample sizes, shapes, and quantities. Collimators and focal distances can be customized to the applications, and a programmable X-Y stage offers significant convenience and ergonomic advantages compared with a fixed stage.

Bowman CTO Jun Choi announces the appointment of Brian Judge as Applications/Support Engineer. In his new post, Judge is responsible for new standards certifications, recertification of existing standards, and both remote and on-site system support.

Regarding the latter, Judge is distinctly qualified: during his previous 3-year tenure as a Bowman Production Engineer, he built the line used to manufacture benchtop XRFs, and performed QC checks on equipment. As a result, his knowledge of the inner workings of XRF measurement instruments, as well as the advanced XRalizer software that runs all Bowman systems, is broad and deep. Judge received an ME from Southern Illinois University.

Lockheed Martin’s Ocala facility manufactures assemblies for aircraft fire control sensors, missile and vehicle electronic and cabling assemblies, and missile seeker and guidance sections. The company recently selected a Bowman L Series XRF for critical quality measurements. The "L" is Bowman’s most versatile instrument, combining the features of the P Series with a larger sample chamber and greater X-Y stage travel. It is ideal for parts over 12" and up to 24" in any dimension, and for large fixtures holding multiple samples for multi-point measurement. The L features provides exceptional spectral resolution for complex measurements and uses a wide band multi-channel amplifier to sort and count the radiated photons.

Jeffrey Korpus is Bowman's new Manager of the Standards Business Unit.

Korpus was formerly a Project Manager and Support Engineer for Bowman with responsibility for new standards design and team management. He also managed Bowman’s Quality System for ISO17025 and worked with Bowman engineers and programmers on new hardware and software features. Prior to his career with Bowman, Korpus was Recertification Manager at Calmetrics.

“This is a pivotal time for our industry,” says Korpus. “New hybrid finishes, and intensifying quality demands such as IPC’s 4552A/B and RoHS, present unique opportunities for an XRF equipment company with a solid standards capability – and the ability to deliver quickly.

“One of my first priorities has been to establish a Short Order Stock for common standards that we can ship immediately,” he continues. “I believe that, in a relatively short time, we’ll be able to build on Bowman’s leadership in XRF systems to make the company equally well-recognized for standards.”

“IBERICA” is 7th EU Branch for Bowman

Bowman Iberica has greatly expanded Bowman’s reach and service capability in western Europe. From its headquarters in the Barcelona suburb of Mataro, it will serve new and existing XRF benchtop users throughout Spain and Portugal. According to owner Domenec Mayoral, the region is ripe with potential for Bowman’s G series benchtop XRF, with its precision video imaging, and 'bottom-up' measurement using laser-based auto-focus.
