RIGAKU KT-100S LIBS Handheld Metal Analyzer

RIGAKU KT-100S LIBS Handheld Metal Analyzer – easily identify the most difficult alloy grades in a few seconds. The KT-100S uses Laser Induced Breakdown Spectroscopy (LIBS), enabling permanent and accurate alloy identification for use in:
• Scrap sorting
• Quality assurance in metalworking
• Positive Materials Identification (PMI) in mission-critical operations such as aerospace and petrochemicals
• Advanced identification of light elements

LIBS is more sensitive and better suited to detecting light elements such as aluminum (Al), magnesium (Mg), and beryllium (Be). However, reliable analysis of materials containing these elements by LIBS has been very limited and has typically been confined to the laboratory environment – until now. The KT-100S handheld metal analyzer represents the latest technological achievements in the miniaturization of lasers and spectrometers, which have quickly expanded the use of this technique to industrial applications. The KT-100S offers an advanced method for easy identification of the most common Al grades – 1100, 6061 and 6063 – as well as brass and bronze Al and silicon (Si) or Be in copper.

In addition to the analytical performance of LIBS technology, the KT-100S reduces the need for regulatory licensing and registration that previous generation analyzers were susceptible to.
