The energy was intense. The snow was flying. The crowd was electric. As part of our Winter Olympics 2026 story, CIQTEK invited our Italian partner Media System Lab to attend the competition at Livigno Snow Park as our special on-site representative. They were there in person. Right at the venue. Capturing the atmosphere, the emotion, and the unforgettable moments from the 2026 Winter Olympics. It was powerful. And it reminded us why the Olympic spirit matters far beyond sports.     When Science Meets the Olympic Spirit At CIQTEK, we develop advanced scientific instruments, including SEM, NMR, EPR, BET systems, etc. Our work supports researchers who spend years chasing answers that most people never see. Scientific progress is not instant. It takes patience. It takes resilience. It takes the willingness to refine and improve again and again. That is why the scientific spirit aligns so naturally with the Olympic spirit. Both are about: Relentless improvement Long-term commitment Precision and control Teamwork across borders At Livigno Snow Park, our partner Media System Lab witnessed elite athletes pushing their physical limits. Back in laboratories around the world, scientists push technological and intellectual limits every day. Different fields. Same mindset.     CIQTEK and Media System Lab: Partnership in Action Global innovation depends on trusted partnerships. CIQTEK's collaboration with Media System Lab reflects our belief that strong local partners create a stronger global impact. While athletes represent their nations on the slopes, our partners represent shared values in science and technology. Together, we build something bigger than any single company.       Why This Moment Matters for CIQTEK Being part of the Winter Olympics 2026 story through Livigno Snow Park is meaningful for us. It represents connection. Connection between science and sport.Connection between Italy and the global research community.Connection between ambition and achievement. The athletes compete for gold.Scientists compete against the unknown. Both inspire us to aim higher.   The competitions will end. The medals will be awarded. The crowds will go home. But the spirit continues. At CIQTEK, we carry that energy forward. Into our labs. Into our engineering teams. Into every collaboration around the world. Because excellence is not a moment. It is a mindset.   A group photo of the CIQTEK mascot, Matteo from the MS lab, and the Winter Olympics mascot

The value of scientific instruments goes beyond "buying the equipment"; it’s about using it well. On January 22, the CIQTEK "Care & Innovation" service team visited the Analysis and Testing Center at South China Normal University (SCNU) for an in-depth, specialized service activity. Led by Senior Application Engineer Hongyan Shen and Senior Service Engineer Dong Wang, the expert team conducted a full-scale instrument inspection and provided customized advanced EPR training, supporting research in physics, chemistry, and materials science. Their professional service is helping accelerate cutting-edge research in the Greater Bay Area.   Safeguarding Critical Research Instruments SCNU's Analysis and Testing Center is a key platform for high-level research, handling multi-disciplinary analysis and testing tasks. The CIQTEK EPR spectrometer installed at the center is a core instrument for analyzing material microstructures and monitoring free radical dynamics, operating under heavy research workloads. To ensure the instrument remains at peak performance, the CIQTEK team responded promptly and dispatched a "service + application" expert duo. They focused on daily maintenance challenges and advanced application needs, providing dual-layer support for instrument stability and efficient utilization.     In-Depth Inspection: Equipment Health is the First Line of Defense "Stable operation is essential for reliable data." Upon arrival, Senior Service Engineer Dong Wang and the team immediately performed a meticulous instrument health check. They inspected the magnet system and water cooling, calibrated all key parameters, and maintained low-temperature accessories, following CIQTEK's standard operating procedures (SOPs). The team also provided preventive maintenance advice to ensure long-term "zero-fault" operation, giving researchers confidence for ongoing and future experiments.   Customized Advanced Training: Bridging Theory and Practice Hardware maintenance strengthens research, while application training strengthens scientific insight. Senior Application Engineer Hongyan Shen delivered a highly practical, custom advanced EPR training to SCNU staff and students. The training addressed key research directions, including photocatalysis, material defect analysis, and advanced oxidation studies, combining theory and hands-on practice. Shen covered EPR principles, experimental details, parameter optimization, sample testing, and complex spectrum analysis, providing case-based explanations tailored to real research scenarios. Students and staff actively engaged in discussions, following practical demonstrations and one-on-one problem solving. The session translated abstract theory into immediately usable lab techniques, earning high praise from the center.     Professional Service Recognized, Empowering High-Quality Research SCNU faculty commented: "CIQTEK’s service response is fast and highly profes...
