About Newton Scientific

Newton Scientific is a high voltage technology company with more than twenty years experience in the design and production of radiation sources, particle accelerators and high voltage systems. NSI miniature X-ray source technology enables some of the smallest and most powerful portable and handheld X-ray systems on the market today. NSI power supplies provide the high voltage for some of the world’s highest energy ion implanters. Our products are used in many fields, including non-destructive testing, industrial process control, security and semiconductor manufacturing. Our capabilities encompass everything from conceptual design to product engineering to new product launch, manufacturing and continuous improvement. We supply both standard products and custom OEM solutions for our customer’s instruments. NSI occupies a modern facility which is fully equipped for mechanical and electronics design, product development and manufacturing. We are located in Charlestown, MA.

Company history

NSI was founded in 1994 to develop and supply custom particle accelerators, radiation sources, and high voltage systems. During our early years we developed our core technologies: high voltage electronics and charged particle beam production, transport and target systems. We applied these core technologies to a range of cutting-edge industrial and medical applications, including medical radioisotope production, biomedical accelerator mass spectrometry, high energy ion implantation, micro-beams for materials analysis, and X-ray and neutron sources for medical and industrial uses. Outgrowths of these technologies led to the development of two product lines in the early 2000s: miniature X-ray sources for analytical instruments, and very high voltage power supplies for ion implantation. Today NSI is a major supplier of miniature X-ray sources for handheld, portable and benchtop X-ray instruments. We also continue to supply very high voltage power supplies to manufacturers of semiconductor equipment. In 2010, NSI was acquired by Rigaku Corporation, a world leader in the field of X-ray analytical and industrial instrumentation. With over 1,000 employees and operations in Japan, the US, Europe and China, Rigaku has expanded NSI’s global and technological horizons.
