Increase your process efficiency and recovery rate X-ray fluorescence spectroscopy (XRF) has an important and well-established analytical role within the mining and minerals industry. It is used extensively for exploration, grade control, process monitoring and assuring that the composition of waste is within the limits of environmental norms and regulations.

The Burst Tester is used as a multi-directional test to identify failure in the direction showing least resistance. This test shows the physical strength and fiber bond. Different models are available for paper, board or textile. This instrument is also used for other applications such as plastic, rubber, aluminum and felts. The sample is pneumatically clamped, the rubber membrane is pushed upwards by hydraulics. The force at fracture is recorded.

Insert Your Sample and Test. The Horizontal Tensile Tester tests the tensile strength and elongation of a sample. After placing the sample the sensor detects the sample and the test starts. Special guides are supplied to center the sample correctly. The guides can be replaced when another test width is required. The wide workbench enables you to easily perform your tests. The auto detect option leaves your hands free to slide in your sample. The touchscreen has clear buttons makes navigation quick and easily. As an option, the instrument can be adapted for wet test according to ISO 12625-5.

Test Results. After the tests the values are shown in a graph and in statistical values. The main results are force, strain, T.E.A, elongation and force, and there is a wide range of other results. The instrument is equipped with an overload protection and can be supplied with a 50, 100, 250, 500 or 1,000N load cell.

Raman spectroscopy can be used for direct sample analysis typically without preprocessing or preparation. Raman has the unique capability of being able to test a sample directly through transparent packing material like glass or plastic, making it a fast, easy method that can be used for material identification and analysis wherever it is needed.

The Metrohm Instant Raman Analyzer (MIRA) P is a high-performance, handheld Raman spectrometer used for rapid, nondestructive determination and verification of different material types, such as Pharmaceutical APIs and excipients. Despite the small size of the instrument, the Mira P has a ruggedized design and features a high-efficiency spectrograph design equipped with our unique Orbital-Raster-Scan (ORS) technology. The Mira P is fully compliant with FDA 21 CFR Part 11 regulations.

The NanoLIBS® LIBS analyzer is a state-of-the-art, handheld instrument for laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy used in rapid identification of solid materials based on elemental analysis. The NanoLIBS provides considerable time savings in materials identification and confirmation, improving compliance with raw material testing directives while at the same time increasing productivity.

The NIRS DS2500 Analyzer is the tried and tested, flexible solution for routine analysis of solids, creams, and optionally also liquids along the entire production chain. Its robust design makes the NIRS DS2500 Analyzer resistant to dust, moisture, vibrations, and temperature fluctuations, which means that it is eminently suited for use in harsh production environments.

The NIRS XDS RapidContent Analyzer enables rapid, nondestructive analyses of solid powders, coarser granulates, pellets or flakes. Composition or material identification testing is performed either in the laboratory or at-line, on samples contained in their original packaging, bags or vials.
