They focus on Physical Dimensional cal techs. They are a major maker of biomedical equipment. The MN location works with pace makers and such items. I went there for an interview, great place. They need good physical techs because this stuff goes into bodies and if any of the physical measurements are out... well you can guess what may happen.

Claymore, we do have an electronic cal lab but we have not needed to add technicians for various reasons; technician longevity, slower instrument growth, and increased automation.

Our Phys/D lab has had some turnover, but more importantly is experiencing a faster increase in workload.
