March 4, 2019.  Schaumburg, IL. Bowman, a manufacturer of precision XRF plating analysis instruments, has significantly bolstered its sales and service capacity in the New England states with the addition of Eastern Inspection Solutions to its Global Partner Network.   

Headquartered in Framingham, MA, Eastern Inspection specializes in the sale and service of hand-held XRF analyzers and, according to owner Mike McCarthy, “had wanted a strong line extension into the benchtop XRF arena.  

“We sought an introduction to Bowman because of its advanced detector technology,” adds McCarthy, “and because their reputation is they’re very customer-centric.  That’s very much in line with our philosophy as well.”

According to Bowman President, Tom Leone, “EIS’s years of experience with hand-held EDXRF, (energy-dispersive XRF) particularly as it applies to solution analysis, make the company an excellent asset for Bowman.  Also,” Leone continues, “with so much product interest coming to us from the Northeast Corridor, we were eager to expand with a company that understood this highly specialized instrument sector.”   

Eastern Inspection Solutions will represent Bowman’s 7 XRF models in both of Bowman’s major markets: printed circuit board manufacturing and general metal finishing.  It will also supply Bowman XRF Calibration Standards.
