Product Lifecycle Support
Our instruments are built to last, but we are also commited to new developing new technologies. We'll keep you informed of your service options and work with you to provide continuity for your application.
Our Service Commitment
We are committed to supporting your instrument throughout its operational life, helping you maximise performance, reliability and return on investment. As products mature, support levels evolve through three distinct stages: Full Support, Best Effort Support, and End of Support.
Full Support
During the Full Support phase, products continue to receive comprehensive hardware and software support.
Best Effort Support
Support remains available, although certain services may become limited due to component availability and technology obsolescence.
End of Support
Once a product reaches End of Support, active service and maintenance activities are discontinued.
Relocation & Recycle
CAMECA offer a range of support services when you decide to replace your exisiting system.
