Metal & 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.
The Right Configuration for Your Application
When it comes to metal analysis/alloy analysis, you can
choose from a range of configurations of our
Niton® XRF
alloy analyzers as well as an assortment of optional features and
accessories to match any of your analytical needs.
Fast, Reliable Alloy Analysis – Now with GOLDD Technology
Now, in addition to our Niton XL3t 800 alloy analyzer,
already known for its superior positive grade identification
and alloy analysis, we offer the
Niton XL3t 900
GOLDD.
It is the definitive tool for your analysis requirements,
delivering improvements with:
- Light element detection (Mg, Al, Si, P, S) without helium
or vacuum purge
- Overall sensitivity
- Shorter measurement times
Scrap Metal Recycling/Scrap Metal Sorting
- High count rate for lower detection limits and
faster analysis – sort more loads in less time
- Best detection limits for trace/tramp elements
- Superior light element performance for sorting Al,
Ti, and bronze alloys
Quality Assurance with XRF/Quality Control with XRF
- Instant, positive grade identification for alloy QC/QA
- Reduce scrap and rework – recover lost traceability in
seconds
- Real-time, traceable results – not questionable paperwork
Positive Material Identification (PMI)
- Incoming, in-stock, or in-service component testing
- Accurate grade identification and elemental
analysis in just 2 to 5 seconds
- Hot-surface testing to 1000° F (538° C)
- Fast, simple reporting and certificate generation
Flow Accelerated Corrosion (FAC)
- Lower detection limits for Cr, Cu, Ni, and Mo in
carbon steel
- Totally nondestructive – sample stays completely
intact
- Easy reporting and data export
Coating Thickness Measurement
- At-line analysis – improved process efficiency and
productivity
- Totally nondestructive – sample stays intact on the
line; no sample cutting
- Accurate data – prevents over-coating, under-coating
Other Metal Analysis with XRF Applications
Our on XRF analyzers are valuable tools for a number of
less prominent, but no less important, alloy analysis
applications such as:
- Iron Slag Analysis – Niton XRF analyzers
provide a reliable method for monitoring the elemental
content of iron slags during recycling and refining
- Precious Metal Analysis – our analyzers
provide a fast, reliable, nondestructive means of
identifying and quantifying the composition of precious
metal alloys
