Mass metrology equipment manufacturer Metryx has signed a sales, service and support contract with Taiwan-based Hermes-Epitek to promote Metryx’s equipment in Taiwan, China and Singapore. Metryx has already been selling systems into the Asia market. 

“As we continue to increase our installed base in the Asia Pacific region, it is critical that we develop a strong, local sales and service capability throughout the region.  Working with Hermes-Epitek allows us to do exactly that,” stated Dr. Adrian Kiermasz, President and CEO of Metryx.

“Metryx has done an excellent job of bringing this promising technology to market over the last two years,” stated Dr. James Wang, Hermes-Epitek’s Director of Metrology and Mask Dept. “Their market penetration has been impressive with customers across the Asia Pacific region. We believe we not only bring a great deal of value in terms of support and service for the existing tool base, but also provide an excellent platform for growing that base significantly.”

Metryx said that key Hermes-Epitek engineering staff had already received training. The agreement is effective from April 1st onwards.
