The Dutch based firm Post Electronics produced and sold lots of electronic components and computer systems.
Like the 6502 based PC-1, PC-2, PC-3, and PIM-1 and the Z80 based CB80. They also created Ultiboard, the PCB design software that became their future in the USA.

PROTON Electronics: PC-1, CB80, PIM-1, KB-2
PROTON Electronics, a small company from Naarden the Netherlands, led by James Post, and A.J. Kool as technical manager, produced and sold a lot of electronic equipment in kit and assembled format. Parts, kist, measurement, computers to computer systems based on the 6502 and later the Z80.
They also developed Ultiboard, a printed circuit board design and layout software, which became very succesfull. The company moved to the USA for the Ultiboard business and the software is still available at NI.
On these pages information on the 6502 systems PC-1, PC-2 and PC-3, the Z80 CB80 Combiboard systems, the PIM-1 boxed 6502 system and the KB-2 Keyboard.
Many thanks to Dirk Prins for photos, scans, sources.

KEMPAC system eurocards and microcomputers
Under the name KEMPAC SYSTEM Eurocards and Microcomputers for Industrial Automation a 19 inch rack system was developed in the 80ties around the 6502 by the (of TMX fame) Kuipers Electronic Engineering B.V., Zwijndrecht
Gerben Voort has acquired such a system and has shared these photos. In the future I hope to scan the documentation.

Dubbel drama voor bedrijf: directeur overleden en nu ook financiële problemen
De dertig medewerkers van Kuipers Electronic Engineering (TMX) in Zwijndrecht maken in korte tijd twee drama’s mee.
André Oerlemans
In juni overleed onverwachts hun directeur Peter-Paul Kuipers. Nu heeft zijn broer Robert surseance van betaling moeten aanvragen. Bewindvoerder Jeroen Schras heeft tot november de tijd om het bedrijf te redden. Ondertussen wordt er doorgewerkt.
Het bedrijf aan de Houtkoperstraat bestaat sinds 1976 en levert tele-monitoring voor installaties, waterlopen, bruggen en tunnels.
