(CAMPAIGN AGAINST LIVING MISERABLY) – MALE MENTAL HEALTH CHARITY

As many of you may know, TMD Technologies has been operating a charity scheme for several years. Charities are nominated by staff and the fund-raising activities are co-ordinated by the company’s Sports & Social Team (SAS). We are pleased to announce that last year we raised £10,000 for CALM (Campaign Against Living Miserably) from a variety of events.

So far, we have supported Alzheimer’s Society, Cancer Research UK, National Autistic Society, London’s Air Ambulance, CALM and this year, Diabetes UK.

We are also doing well with our low frequency, ultra-high-power accelerator amplifiers. The first units have been successfully fielded and we recently attended the IPAC 2019 International Accelerator Exhibition in Melbourne. Here, potential customers were impressed with the high reliability and ‘availability’ of these products – critically important for many applications where the system is required to provide 24/7 operation.”

TMD’s new products are highlighted in the additional colourful icons on the home pages of our UK and USA websites www.tmd.co.uk and www.tmdus.com.

TMD Technologies in the US is experiencing unprecedented growth in our MPM, HVPS, and commercial amplifier business. As more customers become aware of TMD’s high performance products and proven reliability, the US office has expanded in order to support this growth. Especially relevant is the continued pursuit by the US aerospace defense companies of higher power microwave solutions, and increased demand for higher frequencies. TMD has invested heavily in pursuing these developments and has products ready and in development to address this critical need.

TMD celebrates an outstanding 75 years at the top of scientific and technical microwave and RF innovation

– from the world’s very first high-power radar klystrons to quantum clocks!

TMD’s innovative heritage can be traced right back to the 1940s where, under the then leadership of EMI, the company produced the world’s first high power klystron, the CV150. Subsequent major developments covered travelling wave tubes (TWTs) and magnetrons, leading to a multi-cavity klystron for the UK’s first early warning radar, and the world’s first and only electrostatically focussed klystron produced in volume.

Nigel Hann, Head of Sales, TMD Technologies

I’d like to take this opportunity to summarise where we are with product development at TMD. As always, we strive to remain at the leading edge of high power and high voltage RF and microwave, providing all the features and performance that our customers are looking for. If there’s anything we’ve missed or should be doing differently don’t hesitate to let me, or any of the sales team know and we’ll feedback to TMD’s engineering team at our weekly get-togethers – and in between! Many thanks to those of you who have completed our annual customer surveys. These are important for us to improve quality, reliability, customer service and all aspects of the TMD brand.

I’m delighted to write this message to TMD Technologies’ customers in our 75th Anniversary year. As explained in more detail on page 2, TMD’s heritage can be traced right back to 1944 where, under the then leadership of EMI, the company produced the world’s first high power klystron the CV150 – for use in wartime radar.

It’s fascinating to reflect that this same spirit of innovation is very much alive in TMD’s engineers today, who continuously challenge themselves to be thought-leaders in the RF, microwave and high voltage industry.

However, to be effective, this activity must be closely aligned with markets and customers. I am very proud to head up TMD’s energetic and dedicated Sales & Business Development Team, which is closely and passionately focussed on our customers and the emerging requirements of their applications.
