Carl Zeiss NTS and SII NanoTechnology announce global strategic alliance on Nanotechnology Solutions
Tokyo, 16.03.2006.
Carl Zeiss Nano Technology Systems (NTS), a division of Carl Zeiss SMT, and SII NanoTechnology (SIINT), a subsidiary of Seiko Instruments Inc., today jointly announced a global strategic alliance in the electron and ion- beam systems, service and solutions market. This is a further step to jointly becoming the global leader for enabling nanotechnology solutions. Already in January 2006, SIINT started to sell and service Carl Zeiss NTS products in Japan.
Subject of the alliance is the joint development of market leading systems and application solutions which will allow for new and innovative applications in nanotechnology and semiconductor process control solutions. Moreover, the two companies will mutually combine their products and solutions portfolio comprising Scanning and Transmission Electron Microscopes (SEM / TEM), Focused Ion Beam (FIB) systems and XRF (X-Ray Fluorescent) systems for nanoscopic imaging, analysis and measurement. The global sales, service and application support presence of the two technology leaders will enable customers for one-stop purchase of integrated nanotechnology solutions. Of special value to customers will be the established and long-term geographical focus and strength of Carl Zeiss NTS and SII NanoTechnology in the western hemisphere and Asia, respectively.

FEI ends support agreement with Carl Zeiss
As from the 1st of march 2006 FEI Terminated their exclusive agency agreement with Carl Zeiss South Africa.
As Anaspec had an exclusive outsourcing agreement with Carl Zeiss South Africa to support the FEI equipment on their behalf, Anaspec will no longer be involved in new installations on FEI equipment due to this new change.
Anaspec has contractual agreements with clients using FEI equipment, including some new installs sold by Carl Zeiss in the past months, which we will fulfill.
At this stage Anaspec will continue to accept FEI support calls, but not as the official FEI support in South Africa. There is also no intention to work with the new FEI agent on the support of FEI equipment. Anaspec has taken this opportunity of the agency change, to stop the political position it was in, whereby we were officially supporting two competing products.
Anaspec has chosen to focus on the Carl Zeiss range of products and the international support of application specific equipment like Qemscan and Jetscan.
Anaspec has also started to branch into other areas such as metal detectors used in food quality control systems and the Carl Zeiss Industrial measurement systems. This means that we have not had to loose any technicians to this agency change.

Anaspec and Taratec
Anaspec has singed up a new support agreement with Taratec to assist with the support of the Sartorius product range. This allows Anaspec to get more exposure to industrial clients and broaden its support to other areas.

Anaspec and Carl Zeiss IMT
From the 1st of august 2005 Anaspec will be supporting Carl Zeiss South Africa on their IMT product range. This means that Anaspec has started to branch out into more industrial technical support and not just optics.
IMT is the industrial measurement product range used mainly in the automotive industry. The technology encompasses robotics, software and application knowledge. just the sort of equipment that suits Anaspec's style of professional support to professional companies.
Training of engineers has started with the ultimate aim of having 2 engineers fully trained by June 2006.

10 years of support
Yes, it's been ten years since Anaspec was founded.
The day was celebrated at Heia Safari Ranch, as a family day for all the kids to get to see Africa and the adults to enjoy a great braai, a beer or 5 and the wonderful African outdoors, that we so seldom actually appreciate these days.
We would like to thank all those who made it a success and for all those who sent their best wishes for the day.
Outside between the thorn trees...Africa!
   
Spot the Australian... No, he's the one on the very Right! Oh and spot the fishing story in the background
   
Some of us saw Zebras drinking close by, later on in the evening some saw Quagga's, dodo's and Britney Spears....

In June 2008 Carl Zeiss South Africa acquired 51% of Anaspec as part of the plan to have Anaspec work closer with the Carl Zeiss company.

Where Anaspec specialises in the technical support of analytical systems, the intention is to improve Carl Zeiss’s standing with its clients locally but also throughout the African continent making use of Anaspec’s experience in efficient international technical support. 

Anaspec now manages all the Carl Zeiss product lines in South Africa which broadens our exposure into the medical, sport optics and industrial measurement markets.
