XRF (X-ray fluorescence) is an innovative, non-destructive technology for material analysis. It`s unique and almost universal, given you get a high-quality XRF gun (handheld XRF).
An X-ray gun sees sample contents by using an X-ray source to measure the secondary ways (fluorescent) the sample emits. Such an analysis is clear and fast.
Handheld XRF (energy-dispersive X-ray fluorescence, EDXRF) analyzers are used to identify presence of a wide range of elements, namely every single element that is located between sodium and uranium in the periodic table. However, different models of XRF (EDXRF) spectrometers may have varying detection range, depending on such parameters as X-ray tube voltage, presence of certain filters, etc.
Handheld analyzers are the latest invention, highly portable and lightweight, that can provide results in seconds. For comparison, a regular lab will analyze samples for days or even weeks.
Every Elvatech portable XRF (EDXRF) gun is developed and advanced for:
A portable analyzer from Elvatech can be used to control the quality of alloys, analyzing jewelry to see if it`s authentic, screening hazardous materials, sorting scrap metals, etc. You can research a wide range of materials on-site with a lightweight, technologically advanced mini-lab in your hand. Elvatech`s analyzers provide results in a couple of seconds, being the fastest in the world.
