Do you think camera when you read Nikon? Be surprised.

Okay, it is true: Since its foundation as a manufacturer of optical instruments in 1917, Nikon’s cameras have been a synonym for high quality and reliability. But did you also know that the same company founded Nikon Precision Europe (NPE) in 1988 and is linked to high-tech semiconductor manufacturing? All developments based on over half a century of experience in the field of optics, Nikon Precision Europe simply integrated Nikon’s optical glass and lens production capabilities with precision fabrication and measurement technology. Out came the stepper/scanner, recognized as the most precise machine ever made – a step-and-repeat as well as a step-and-scan lithography system. Today this tool is driving the global manufacturing of semiconductors, products that bolster our lives and the information society as a whole. So when you want to monitor Nikon Precision Europe, you will see more than a complex high-tech product. More than 220 bright and flexible people behind it. More than professional and personal prospects for yourself!
