LIBS technology matured from laboratory instruments to industrial sorters, enabling real-time elemental analysis of metal alloys at belt speeds. ...
Introduction: Metal 3D printing, also known as additive manufacturing, has revolutionised various industries by enabling the production of complex and customised metal parts with unprecedented precision. However, ensuring the integrity and quality of printed components remains a critical challenge. Gas detection technologies offer a solution to this challenge, providing valuable insights into ...
For metals analysis, below are five predictions that will shake up the landscape in 2020: 1. ...
As I meet with new and existing customers and show our range of products, I’ve noticed one issue being brought up quite regularly; not many are aware of LIBS analysers. This has happened often enough for me to realise that there’s a general lack of awareness of LIBS and where it can help. So, here is my introduction to LIBS for those testing houses and my answers to the questions I ...
Internationally recognised quality management systems (QMS) call for measurement system analysis (MSA) procedures. This means you can’t become certified for some international quality standards unless you have a robust MSA in place. ...
Laser Induced Breakdown Spectroscopy or LIBS is an analytical technique that's been used in laboratories for many years. Most handheld LIBS analysers are used for fast sorting of alloys in scrap yards, and alloy identification and analysis in various applications within the metals industry. Watch video here. How does LIBS ...
“Quality second generation analyser that is well built, robust and fast. Perfect for what we need in the scrap yard.” As a start-up scrap yard, Romuta wanted to build an advanced, digitalised scrap yard of the future. They met with Hitachi High-Tech Analytical Science team to test the Vulcan laser induced breakdown (LIBS) analyser, being impressed with its speed in accurately ...
In the wake of mis-certification scandals around the world, firms are tightening their quality assurance (QA) processes using materials analysers.Industry has been shaken recently by news of companies providing false certification in a range of fields, from emissions testing through to metal grading. Cases where suppliers have delivered mislabelled products only serve to highlight the importance ...
Laser Induced Breakdown Spectrometry (LIBS) and X-ray Fluorescence (XRF) handheld analysers are both compact, easy-to-use and fast. Materials can be identified at the pull of a trigger. It’s that simple. Often, cost is a key factor in the decision making process, especially when it comes to thinking about overheads long-term. When both products are comparably priced and have a similar ...
Elemental alloy analysis is usually carried out by using either OES (optical emission spectroscopy), XRF (X-ray fluorescence) or with LIBS (laser induced breakdown spectroscopy). ...
Laser ablation is a powerful approach to chemical analysis because of its versatility. It has advantages in chemical analysis including direct characterization of solids, no chemical procedure of dissolution, which reduces the risk of contamination or sample loss, analysis of very small samples not separable from solution ...
