Revolution NMR, LLC News

September 17, 2007 - Pete Lewis will join Revolution NMR as of September 17th. Pete brings ten plus years of experience machining NMR related parts. Pete's experience with CNC machining and NMR will greatly enhance our productivity.

April 24, 2006 - The first experimental results on the multi-sample solids probe being developed by Revolution NMR, in cooperation with Professor Eric Munson's group in the Department of Pharmaceutical Chemistry at the University of Kansas, were presented at the 47^th Experimental Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Conference in Monterey, California. Ben Nelson, a member of Professor Munson's group, presented a paper entitled "Multiple - Sample Probe for High - Throughput Solid State NMR Spectroscopy" at the Monday - Wednesday poster session. The paper generated significant interest from experimenters eager to improve the productivity of their NMR systems.

January 27, 2006 - On January 27, 2006, Revolution NMR LLC held an open house at its new design and manufacturing facility at 209 Racquette Drive in Fort Collins. High Plains Technology Group, an affiliated company that develops tools for orthopedic surgery, also participated in the open house.

More than forty people, including local NMR scientists, surgeons from Orthopedic Center of the Rockies, vendors and friends attended the open house. David Lewis demonstrated Revolution's new equipment and new design and manufacturing capabilities. The guests enjoyed the refreshments and the opportunity to learn about Revolution's future plans. All in all, a very successful event and a fitting beginning to the next stage of Revolution's development!

October 31, 2005 - Revolution NMR announced today the receipt of a Phase I grant from the National Center for Research Resources of the National Institutes of Health under the Small Business Technology Transfer Program (STTR). The one-year grant will fund the initial development of a multi-sample solids (MSS) probe for NMR. The MSS technology was conceived and patented by Dr. Eric Munson of the Department of Pharmaceutical Chemistry at the University of Kansas. Dr. Munson realized that, for the analysis of samples with long relaxation times, the use of multiple spinning modules in a single probe could significantly improve the utilization of NMR systems. The University of Kansas has selected Revolution NMR as its exclusive licensee for MSS, and the NIH grant will provide funds for Revolution and KU to do the initial development and feasibility demonstration of the MSS probe.

November 15, 2005 - Ed Twehous will join Revolution NMR as of November 15th. Ed has spent more than 15 years in NMR and is an expert in solids probe development and probe repair. He will be responsible for new product development at Revolution and will also direct Revolution's probe repair business.

November 1, 2005 - Revolution NMR has announced plans for a significant expansion of its development and production facilities. Revolution will occupy a leased facility at 209 Racquette Drive, Suite C, in Fort Collins (for those with a sense of history, the new facility is literally a stone's throw from 208 Commerce Drive, the birthplace of Chemagnetics). The new facility will house two new CNC machine tools to be acquired by Revolution, along with additional space for development and repair of solids NMR probes and components. David Lewis, a partner at Revolution, commented that "the new facility and equipment will allow us to substantially improve our productivity and customer responsiveness while maintaining the high quality our customers expect. Our expansion will allow us to effectively meet the rapidly increasing demand we are seeing from the solids NMR community." Customers may now contact our facility directly as shown in our updated contact information.

October 31, 2005 - Revolution NMR has completed its first solid state probe repair after announcing the availability of probe repair services at this year's Rocky Mountain Conference. The repair was performed for Dr. Gordon Kennedy at ExxonMobil Research and Engineering. Dr. Kennedy selected Revolution to repair his probe because they were able to offer rapid turnaround at a reasonable price. Please contact Dr. Kennedy at Gordon.j.kennedy@exxonmobil.com or by phone at (908) 730-2606 for his assessment of Revolution's repair services.
