November 20^th, 2009. Morgan Hill, California and Altoetting, Germany.

The companies of Neutronix-Quintel Inc. and Crystec Technology Trading GmbH announce the immediate start of their cooperation for selling and servicing mask aligners in Europe. "The business for semiconductor equipment started to pick up again and we wanted to use this opportunity in order to reinforce our European sales and service organization." said Brett Arnold, president of Neutronix-Quintel.

Neutronix-Quintel Inc. founded in 2005 by the merge of Neutronix Inc., a company specializing for over 20years in the refurbishment and customizations of Canon PLA / MPA aligners and Quintel Corporation, a company manufacturing contact/proximity mask aligners for over 30 years. With a combination of over 1000 installations around the world, Neutronix-Quintel is the premiere supplier of mask alignment equipment. Neutronix-Quintel has partnered with Applied Microengineering Ltd., a supplier of Wafer Bonding Equipment to offer customers a complete solution for mask alignment and wafer bonding equipment.

Neutronix recently introduced the new series of mask aligners NXQ8000, which is based on the former NXQ7500 model from which hundreds of systems are installed already, but has many customer driven enhancements and new features. Mask Aligners are the leading tool for the exposure of photo resist layers on wafers and are frequently used for MEMS, LED/OLED, WLP, 3D-IC, Optoelectronics, Power Devices, Compound Semiconductor and Microfluidics/BioMems applications.

Crystec is a well established sales and service company for semiconductor, LCD and photo voltaic equipment. It is headquartered in Altoetting, Germany little bit east of Munich. Dr. Ralph Luedicke, the president of Crystec has long years experience, selling semiconductor equipment in Europe. He personally worked in the past also for General Signal and was at that time responsible for GCA stepper and Ultratech scanner sales. "We had several discussions with Neutronix-Quintel customers and got only very positive feed back." said Dr. Luedicke and continued: "Neutronix-Quintel mask aligners are very reliable systems and require not much maintenance. Performance and customer satisfaction is high and caused by the strong Euro / week USD the prices are very attractive, compared to Suss and EVG equipment.". "We are optimistic to sell many systems in the future." Dr. Luedicke closed. Crystec can also support existing systems by service and spare parts. Crystec's web page is available in several European languages.
