Linton Crystal Technologies (USA) and Dalian Linton NC Machine Co. Ltd. (China) have announced they will combine their sales departments to better serve customers and potential customers.
“This new structure better focuses on providing the specific knowledge and expertise customers need, rather than simply dividing sales territories by region,” explains Ron Kramer, director of business development for Linton Crystal Technologies.
Linton Crystal will be responsible for sale of its Czochralski (CZ) process crystal growers to the semiconductor industry worldwide, as well as to solar customers everywhere in the world except in China. Kramer is the primary sales contact for this market. He joined Linton in 2016 and has more than 30 years of worldwide sales and marketing experience with technology companies such as Fiberguide Industries, Ultralife Corporation, Qioptiq Imaging Solutions and Telebyte Technology, Inc. He earned a Bachelor of Science and Marketing from the State University of New York College at Brockport, Brockport, N.Y., USA.
