Automatic 32-Sample XRF Scanning System for High Throughput Composition Analysis - EQ-XRF-32-LD


Please email for lead time
Item Number: EQ-XRF-32-LD
Transported by LTL Freight (Truck)
EQ-XRF-32-LD is high throughput 32-sample X-ray fluorescence (XRF) / energy dispersive spectrometer (EDS) system ( Made by Olympus ) for non-destructive composition analysis. The station integrates a handheld XRF spectrometer with XY stage, 32-sample station, and laptop remote control. It enables quick and easy composition analysis of samples (elements from Mg to Bi), with concentrations as low as 0.01%. The system automation provides 32-sample testing, analysis, and result output in one autorun with the push of a single button. It is an excellent tool for high throughput research and development of powder and bulk materials, for applications such as high-entropy alloys, novel magnetic materials, solid ceramic electrolyte materials, etc

SPECIFICATIONS:
Features




  • The high throughput XRF station consists of:
    • Handheld XRF spectrometer made by Olympus.
    • XRF spectrometer holder and triggering mechanism
    • XY stage system and its control box
    • 32-position transparent sample stage (no interference to XRF signal)
    • Laptop with pre-installed control and analysis software
    • Station cabinet with warning lights and lead glass for X-ray safety
  • The automatic operation improves efficiency, reduces operator-related error, and minimizes X-ray exposure
  • Fast, automatic XRF measurement and analysis of 32 samples (~20 min depending on the testing time), and automatic output of composition/spectrum data via a USB port
  • The XRF system can be upgraded with 1D line scan and 2D mapping scan features at the extra cost 
  • Please contact MTI for system customization, such as sample stage with different dimensions, integration of the station with a glove box, etc

Application Notes
Pic. 1
  • You may use a 100T hydraulic press  with a special die to prepare an XRF sample in high throughput (Pic. 1)
  • Users must be trained in radiation safety and fully understand the radiation precautions and instructions provided
  • Close the cabinet door and stay 0.5 m clear of the cabinet before conducting an XRF measurement to minimize radiation
