The Bruker Corporation owes its existence to Professor Günther Laukien who already in the 1950s recognized the need for impulse spectrometers. In 1960, Professor Laukien set out to fill this need by establishing Bruker Physik-AG in Karlsruhe. Since there, Bruker has been developing groundbreaking analytical solutions.

Bruker high-performance scientific instruments and high-value analytical and diagnostic solutions enable scientists to explore life and materials at molecular, cellular and microscopic levels. In close cooperation with our customers, Bruker is enabling innovation, productivity and customer success in life science molecular research, in applied and pharma applications, and in microscopy, nano-analysis and industrial applications.
