Tiger Microwave, the Chinese manufacturer of connectorised RF and microwave components, has appointed Link Microtek and Globes Elektronik as its exclusive representatives for the UK and Germany, respectively. Formed in 1992, Tiger Microwave manufactures a wide variety of components for the commercial and military sectors, including power dividers, directional couplers, combiners, filters, multiplexers, attenuators, terminations and isolators.

The company has recently expanded into a vast new complex on the outskirts of Chengdu, and its modern production areas boast state-of-the-art Computerized Numerical Control (CNC) and aluminum die-casting machines for high volume production.

As Steve Cranstone, Link Microtek's managing director, commented: "No visitor to Tiger's new premises could fail to be impressed at the production facilities available and the company's total commitment to product quality. Tiger Microwave is Link Microtek's first Chinese supplier, and we are very pleased to have taken this step."
