It is a high?tech innovative enterprise focusing on R&D and application of analytical instrument equipment and analytical testing technologies, with core capabilities in both advanced instrument R&D & manufacturing and comprehensive testing research services.

　　Rooted in profound historical heritage, its origin can be traced to the Iron and Steel Research Institute founded in 1952. In 1956, the Test & Instrument Institute of the Iron and Steel Research Institute was established, marking the official start of NCS’s instrument industry. In 1977, China’s first vacuum fusion gas analyzer was successfully developed by the institute, kicking off its instrument industrialization and filling domestic technical gaps in relevant fields.

　　In 2001, Beijing NCS Analytical Instruments Co., Ltd. was formally incorporated, driving large?scale and rapid development of its instrument business. In 2003, the company took the lead in undertaking the major national S&T research project Development of Scientific Instruments under the 10th Five?Year Plan of the Ministry of Science and Technology, demonstrating its national?level research strength and industry?leading position.

　　After years of development, it has established a complete product and extended?service portfolio for the testing industry, covering four core business segments: R&D and manufacturing of analytical testing instruments, third?party professional testing services, development of reference materials / reference samples, and testing proficiency?testing services.

　　Its core analytical instruments feature advanced technologies and comprehensive product lines, including optical emission spectrometers, carbon?sulfur analyzers, oxygen?nitrogen?hydrogen analyzers, ICP spectrometers, ICP?MS, soil heavy?metal detectors, food heavy?metal detectors, wavelength?dispersive X?ray fluorescence spectrometers, metal in?situ analyzers, pulse?fusion time?of?flight mass spectrometers, testing machines and other series of equipment. Characterized by stable performance and accurate, reliable test data, these products have gained wide industry recognition.

　　Its products and services serve a broad range of scenarios: traditional industries such as iron & steel, metallurgy, non?ferrous metals and machinery； high?end manufacturing sectors including aerospace, nuclear power, high?speed railways, automobiles and new materials； as well as livelihood?related and key industrial fields such as environmental protection, food and petrochemicals.

　　NCS is a well?known player in China’s analytical instrument manufacturing sector and one of the top?tier comprehensive testing and research institutions. Leveraging two core platforms — the National Iron and Steel Materials Test Center and a professional instrument industrial base — it possesses strong capabilities in scientific?research innovation and standard formulation.
