SPECTROPORT

Inspecting the metals makeup of incoming and outgoing components
is a critical task for countless companies. It’s a quality control
necessity in metal producing, processing, recycling, service
contracting, and more. Metal alloys must be accurately tested,
identified, and verified based on defined chemical composition.
Mistakes matter. An alloy mixup at the shipping dock or on the
factory floor can cause an inconvenient batch rework — or a lost
contract.
Many firms use a handheld X-ray fluorescence (XRF) analyzer for these
jobs. However, this can cause problems. For instance, a handheld
XRF can’t determine precise levels of carbon content: the only way to
distinguish among many low-alloy steels. It also has trouble handling
elements like phosphorus or sulfur at critical levels.
When handhelds aren’t enough, the amazing SPECTROPORT applies more advanced OES technology — in a unit as easy to use as a handheld analyzer. Sparking a revolution in mobile metals analysis, SPECTROPORT delivers many advantages of SPECTRO’s mobile OES
flagship, SPECTROTEST, in a smaller, lighter package. It is as fast as a handheld XRF, with many analyses taking only a few seconds. But unlike handheld XRF, it accurately analyzes elements such as carbon, sulfur, phosphorus, boron, lithium, beryllium, calcium, silicon, magnesium, and aluminum at low and critical levels. And it enables effortless point-and-shoot performance, to minimize operator intervention and decision-making.
