From the archive, I see LSM Tech in the US has been mentioned, but I am looking for a company covering the UK. This comes from the department leadership suggesting to keep microscopes running for longer once manufacturer support ends or just to save money. This would be for SP5, LSM 780 generation of instruments. I could see issues with availability of spare parts, level of knowledge of the service engineers and response time / equipment down time. Please let me know what you think. Maybe someone wants to set up such a company and stock spare parts? best wishes Andreas |

Zeiss trained I believe. Helped me with an Ultravox system, and was recommended by a colleague for Zeiss systems.

K-Tec does preventive maintenance and repairs for Zeiss widefield microscopes after the official end of service. Arcroyal are based in the US, but cover the UK and will service/repair LSM 780 and SP5s now and hopefully after their EOS. best wishes Andreas -----Original Message----- From: Arcroyal Systems <[hidden email]> To: CONFOCALMICROSCOPY <[hidden email]> Sent: Tue, 26 Nov 2019 15:56 Subject: Re: 3rd party confocal maintenance ***** To join, leave or search the confocal microscopy listserv, go to: http://lists.umn.edu/cgi-bin/wa?A0=confocalmicroscopy Post images on http://www.imgur.com and include the link in your posting. ***** Arcroyal Systems www.Arcroyal.com |
