Metal and Alloy Analysis

Volatile base metal prices, combined with globalized trade in scrap metal, alloy stock, and finished products have increased the costs of alloy mix-ups to suppliers, distributors, and industrial consumers. Now available with groundbreaking GOLDD technology, the Thermo Scientific Niton XL3t Series x-ray fluorescence (XRF) alloy analyzers, meets your demand for faster, more accurate results.

When it comes to metal/alloy analysis, you can choose from a range of configurations of Niton® XRF alloy analyzers as well as an assortment of optional features and accessories to match any of your analytical needs.

 

Toys and Consumer Goods Screening with Handheld XRF

Verification and screening for toxic metal in consumer goods are imperative to protect our children from lead poisoning and to reduce the risk associated with distributing lead-containing products.

When it comes to screening toys for lead, or screening other child-accessible products, Thermo Scientific Niton XL3t analyzers, now available with groundbreaking GOLDD technology, are the only handheld x-ray fluorescence (XRF) analyzers that can distinguish between lead on the surface of an object from lead in the substrate. Quick. Accurate. Precise. Niton® XL3t 700 Series XRF analyzers can provide the solution when you need to screen consumer goods for toxic metals, all eight regulated elements in toys designed for children under the age of 12.

Screening consumer goods with our handheld Niton XL3t 700 Series XRF analyzers not only provides nearly instantaneous results, but can greatly reduce the need for costly, time consuming traditional laboratory testing.

Simple enough for the receiving crew; just press the orange trigger. The Niton XL3t displays results on the integrated tilting color touch-screen display in seconds.
Stringent enough for your Product Integrity staff, with low limits of detection; all results are reported at 95% confidence.
Strict enough for your legal department, with completely locked and encrypted data for a legally defensible documentation trail.
Fast enough for your Production Manager, with little interruption to manufacturing cycles.
