Nikon Stepper Memorial NSR-1505G2: Tackling a Masterpiece + Ultra-Precision Machine

I am listing a rare nameplate from a Nikon stepper, model NSR-1505G2.

This nameplate is a memento from my time at a former company. We acquired equipment from N?C in Otsuki, modified it, and after evaluation of other exposure systems at Nikon's Ofuna factory, we decided to clear out space. During the dismantling and disposal process, we were allowed to take home anything we wanted before it was treated as industrial waste. I kept this nameplate as a souvenir.

This is a very rare item that is generally not available.
It is also engraved with a serial number.

How about this as a nostalgic item for someone who was involved in the production of steppers at Nikon, perhaps as a testament to their craftsmanship?

It serves as proof of the pride in supporting the global semiconductor industry by lapping the V-flash rails to sub-micron precision.

Naturally, these are not sold, and it is rare to see them appear in auctions.

In terms of value, I believe it is more valuable than nameplates with vehicle identification numbers from cars like Porsche.

There is some bending from when it was removed, but I am listing it as is.
If you are interested, please place a bid.

I am also including a set of essential reading material for Nikon employees and anyone involved in semiconductor exposure equipment in Japan, as a bonus. This is a record of stepper production by Koichiro Yoshida, the father of the stepper.

The price is for the i-line.
