Officially incorporated in 1969, Hamamatsu Corporation (HC) is a wholly owned subsidiary of Hamamatsu Photonics KK of Japan.  In this capacity we provide sales, marketing, and engineering support for our parent company's broad range of photonic devices for all of North and South America.  

Hamamatsu consists of two divisions, Components and Systems.  The Components group handles devices from the Electron Tube Center, Solid State Division, and the Laser Group of our Japanese parent company.  These three Japanese divisions provide us with a broad range of detectors and light sources. The Systems group handles imaging systems and cameras from the Systems division of our Japanese parent company.

For the most part all Hamamatsu products are built to order, however, a selection of frequently ordered products is maintained in stock in New Jersey.  We sell our devices to a wide range of customers from university researchers to OEMs.  Devices are sold in standard configuration and as modules.  We also create custom devices to suit users' needs.  All of our devices are quality tested to ensure that they meet the specifications listed when shipped and our products are known around the world for their quality and consistency.

Hamamatsu Corporation's headquarters are located in Bridgewater NJ.  In addition, we have 23 sales engineers in offices located throughout the United States. More than 150 people are employed at these combined locations.
