A Brief Look At Our Organization And Its
History
The company is owned by Spectris plc and was formed when
Infrared Engineering Ltd (which had been acquired in 1992) merged
in 1998 with NDC Systems Inc. (which had been acquired in 1997).
Both companies had operated as private entities until their
acquisition and the roots of both were to be found in the rapid
advances in sensor technology in the 1960's and 70's.
Spectris is listed on the London Stock Exchange and owns a
number of companies operating in three key sectors: Process
Technology, In-Line Instrumentation (NDC) and Electronic Controls.
Group turnover is approximately 1 billion US Dollars.
Both "IE" and "NDC" companies were founded by
entrepreneur-scientists who exploited their knowledge to develop
practical applications of their science in the form of measurement
devices for industrial processes. Infrared Engineering was best
known for its infrared moisture measurements and NDC for its
nucleonic mass measurement devices.
.
Today the company embraces a wide range of measurement
technologies in order to offer our customers the very
best measurement solution for their process.
R&D is fundamental to NDC's business
philosophy and we have a highly skilled and
innovative team of engineers developing on-line measurement
technologies and the software and hardware solutions that go with
them. Specialisms include sensor and detector technology, sofware
programming and development, optical engineering, hardware design
and many others.

NDC Infrared Engineering benefits from having another company
within the group: NDC Optics. NDC Optics manufactures optical
interference filters and specialized optical coatings both for
NDC's own use and for other instrumentation manufacturers
(industrial and medical), scientists and researchers. To go to the
