Consolidated Engineering Corporation was a chemical instrument manufacturer from 1937 to 1960 when it became a subsidiary of Böwe Bell & Howell. History [ edit]
CEC was founded in 1937 by Herbert Hoover, Jr. as sole proprietor. Dr. Harold Washburn was hired in 1938 as VP for Research, with a mandate to develop instruments applicable to petroleum prospecting. Mr. Hoover was trained as a mining engineer and Dr. Washburn had a Ph. D. in Electrical Engineering. His thesis Professor was E. O. Lawrence, a physicist at the University of California, Berkeley. Four physicists from California Institute of Technology were hired into the Research Dept. in a project to develop a mass spectrometer. The initial product was the 21-101 Mass Spectrometer delivered in December 1942, installed in early 1943, initial price $12, 000, with no options. [1] [2]
