Medical Superconductor Market to Bruker Subsidiary European Advanced
Superconductors
BILLERICA, Mass. (Business Wire EON) May 15, 2008 --
Bruker Corporation announced today that the 2008 Frost & Sullivan
Customer Value Leadership Award in the medical superconductor market has
been presented to Bruker subsidiary European Advanced Superconductors
(EAS) GmbH & Co. KG, which is now part of the Advanced Supercon business
of Bruker.
EAS received the award in recognition of its best practices and
outstanding efforts in the delivery of high-end, value-added customer
services. EAS was also recognized by Frost & Sullivan for its ability to
maintain customer loyalty through its distinctive capability to provide
innovative and value-added products.
Burkhard Prause, Ph.D., Managing Director of EAS, commented: “This
is indeed an honor that our dedicated workforce at EAS has earned. We
would like to congratulate them on this important customer achievement,
and wish them continued success as we expand our Advanced Supercon
business globally.”
Located in Hanau, Germany, EAS is a strong player within the medical and
especially the Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) superconductor market.
EAS has developed and manufactured high-quality low-temperature
superconductors (LTS) for over 40 years. EAS’s
product portfolio encompasses LTS wire for clinical MRI and analytical
instruments as well as for large-scale physics research projects, such
as particle accelerators and experimental fusion reactors. The major
applications for EAS products are clinical MRI machines using 1.5 Tesla
and more recently 3 Tesla magnets, as well as Nuclear Magnetic Resonance
(NMR) magnets, which can reach magnetic field strengths up to and above
20 Tesla. EAS also supplies LTS wire for research animal MRI magnets,
for Electron Paramagnetic Resonance (EPR) magnets and for Fourier
Transform Mass Spectrometry (FTMS) magnets. The company has a strong R&D
department and has participated in projects including the Large Hadron
Collider project, and expects to be a key participant on the
International Thermonuclear Experimental Reactor (ITER) program.
Frost & Sullivan Chairman David Frigstad explained the basis for the
award to EAS: “Existing market participants
are competing for a limited pool within this concentrated market. In
such market circumstances, the surest way of maintaining sustained
market share is through innovative customer enhancement service
strategies. EAS has achieved its success through the deployment of
customer service strategies, as well as excellence in technology.”
Bruker Corp. announced on April 30, 2008 that its Advanced Supercon
business, which includes EAS, European High Temperature Superconductors
