Ranor Division to Produce Product Assemblies for Proton Beam Cancer Treatment Equipment
CENTER VALLEY, Pa., Sept. 10, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- TechPrecision Corporation (OTC Bulletin Board: TPCS) ("TechPrecision" or "the Company"), an industry leading manufacturer of precision, large-scale fabricated and machined metal components and systems with customers in the alternative energy, cleantech, medical, nuclear, defense, aerospace and other commercial industries, today announced that its Ranor Division has received multiple orders valued at over $1.5 million to produce product assemblies for Proton Beam cancer treatment equipment using "synchrocyclotron" technology that was recently cleared by the FDA (Food and Drug Administration). The majority of these new orders will ship in TechPrecision's fiscal year 2013, which ends March 31, 2013, with one of the orders expected to ship in early FY2014.
"We have collaborated closely with our customer from their conceptualization of this revolutionary technology and are gratified that it has reached the commercialization stage with a significant production trajectory ," said Mr. James Molinaro, CEO of TechPrecision Corporation. "This technology significantly reduces the size and cost of Proton Beam therapy units and it can deliver the proton mass to treat the cancer/tumor without damaging surrounding good tissue or cells. This is a huge benefit to patients and cancer treatment facilities alike and is why we expect these Proton Beam units will continue to take market share from the traditional GAMMA radiation technologies."
