Founded at the height of the legendary Colorado goldrush of 1880, Denver Instrument Company is one of the worlds oldest manufacturers of analytical balances. In the late 1880s, the only analytical balances available in America were manufactured and serviced in Europe. English immigrant, William Ainsworth, recognized the opportunity for a U.S. manufacturer and entered the market with innovative analytical balance designs. Around 1895, Ainsworth introduced the companys first shortbeam analytical which significantly reduced weighing time and improved reliability. The shortbeam design was also one of the first commercial uses for aluminum. Today, the Ainsworth tradition of quality and innovation continues at Denver Instrument Company. The companys vertical orientation to manufacturing ensures total quality control of its finished products as all aspects of design and manufacture are performed in the companys modern production facilities in Arvada, Colorado. Denver Instruments continued investment in stateoftheart manufacturing technologies and machine tools gives the companys products a distinct advantage in the world market, without sacrificing the quality of the analytical instrument.
