Seamless quality control is essential for any metalworking, especially for safety critical positive material identification on-site. But very often the spot of analysis is difficult to access e.g. plant components. The PMI-MASTER Smart is a breakthrough for optical emission spectroscopy (OES) analysis in hard to reach places. It’s the only truly portable high performance OES analyser on the market. Weighing just 15 kg / 33 lbs the spectrometer can be easily carried to the point of analysis. This robust spectrometer is designed for the precise analysis of key elements, rapid material verification, PMI and metal sorting. Despite its light weight and compact size the PMI-MASTER Smart offers high analytical performance, unparalleled portability, convenience and ease of use.

Seamless quality control is essential in the metal production industry at multiple stages of production. The PMI-MASTER Pro2 is the ideal instrument for metal processing companies looking for a mobile and robust metals analyser. The optical emission spectrometer (OES) offers extraordinary long battery life and superior precision of results. The preinstalled GRADE Database is the largest metals database on the market for fast and easy grade identification. It offers over 12 million records for 339,000 materials from 69 countries and standards – no time consuming research in norms and grade catalogues.

Vulcan is one of the fastest metals analysers that is built to last. Just squeeze the trigger and one second later the result appears. As it uses Laser Induced Breakdown (LIBS) technology, you won’t need to worry about X-rays. Whether your business is scrap sorting or PMI quality control Vulcan delivers accurate and consistent grade ID every time.

The X-MET8000 range of handheld X-ray fluorescence (HHXRF) analysers delivers the performance needed for rapid alloy grade identification and accurate chemistry of a wide variety of materials (solid and powder metals, polymers, wood, solutions, soil, ores, minerals etc). The X-MET is practical, rugged and easy to use to deliver results you can trust. We provide a range of models to suit all analysis needs and budgets for different applications.

The X-MET8000 Expert Geo is an X-ray fluorescence (XRF) analyser for on-site environmental soil and sediment screening. Carry out high volumes of analyses and complete testing programs quickly, reducing the need for laboratory analyses and their associated costs. Our large area silicon-drift detector (SDD) and revolutionary BOOSTTM technology provide up to 10 times the sensitivity of other handheld XRF models. This delivers the low limits of detection needed to measure critical elements (e.g. US EPA Method 6200 RCRA and priority elements) accurately.

The X-MET8000CG handheld energy dispersive X-ray fluorescence (EDXRF) analyser provides rapid and reliable regulatory compliance screening of consumer goods, from raw materials, to components, to finished products, at various stages: incoming inspection, stock inventory, checks of imported goods, and manufacturing quality control.
