Increase your process efficiency and recovery rate X-ray fluorescence spectroscopy (XRF) has an important and well-established analytical role within the mining and minerals industry. It is used extensively for exploration, grade control, process monitoring and assuring that the composition of waste is within the limits of environmental norms and regulations. Epsilon 4 benchtop spectrometers are used in mining operations, even at remote locations, for fast elemental analysis of ores, minerals and rocks. The combination of low infrastructural demands and the high analytical performance, enables quick determination of operation strategies in mining locations where utilities are limited. Discover the possibilities of XRF analysis and reduce your feedback time from hours to minutes by placing the benchtop XRF spectrometer next to your mine or processing plant.

Zetasizer Advance is the successor to the highly successful and market-leading Zetasizer Nano.

Each of the three models in the Zetasizer Advance Range offers particle size, particle charge (zeta potential) and molecular weight analysis. In addition, each benefits from advances including Adaptive Correlation, M3-PALS zeta potential analysis, constant current zeta mode and our deep learning-based data quality advice system.

Each of the three models is available as a Blue Label or Red Label variant:

• Choose Blue Label for routine sample investigation such as metallic colloids, metal oxides and pigments
• Choose Red Label for more challenging sample types, such as proteins, surfactant solutions and low solid content samples

All Zetasizer Advance systems offer on-site upgradeability with minimal downtime. Should your needs change, your Zetasizer can adapt to new challenges.

The Burst Tester is used as a multi-directional test to identify failure in the direction showing least resistance. This test shows the physical strength and fiber bond. Different models are available for paper, board or textile. This instrument is also used for other applications such as plastic, rubber, aluminum and felts. The sample is pneumatically clamped, the rubber membrane is pushed upwards by hydraulics. The force at fracture is recorded.

The Crush Test is designed as a robust, easy to use instrument. Exactly what you need when performing crush tests. The Crush Tester is suitable for a wide variety of samples, including corrugated board, tubes, paper and plastics. The special sample holders extend the instrument’s possibilities. The accuracy is achieved with a precision load cell, which is even accurate at low force values.

The model 49-56 Digital Micrometer combines unmatched accuracy and resolution with a modern contemporary look. The Micrometer can be configured to meet ISO, ASTM, TAPPI, EDANA or other international specifications. The Micrometer offers a cantilever balance system to allow low pressure measurements. This feature also allows adding or removing additional weights for multiple pressure applications. The instrument is supplied with a sensing eye next to the anvil. When a sample is detected the test cycle automatically starts.

Insert your sample and test The Horizontal Tensile Tester tests the tensile strength and elongation of a sample. After placing the sample the sensor detects the sample and the test starts. Special guides are supplied to center the sample correctly. The guides can be replaced when another test width is required. The wide workbench enables you to easily perform your tests. The auto detect option leaves your hands free to slide in your sample. The touchscreen has clear buttons makes navigation quick and easily. As an option, the instrument can be adapted for wet test according to ISO 12625-5. Test results After the tests the values are shown in a graph and in statistical values. The main results are force, strain, T.E.A, elongation and force, and there is a wide range of other results. The instrument is equipped with an overload protection and can be supplied with a 50, 100, 250, 500 or 1,000N load cell.

Small and Easy to Handle

The PGX+ measures contact angle (dynamic and static), surface tension, and surface energy. The PGX+ makes a drop in µl according to the size that is set. The drop is automatically released and 80 images per second are made. The instrument is used for paper & board, solar cell panels, windshields, metal cylinders and similar surfaces. For most tests deionized water is used, however using other liquids is also possible. Contact us if you want to use any other liquids.

Test Results

During testing the instrument is connected to the special PC software. The software gives you an easy overview of the possible tests. During the test the data transferred to the computer. The pictures taken and the results can be stored and analyzed. Thanks to the direct feedback, adjustments to improve the results can easily be made.

Compression strength

The 17-36 Short Span Compression Tester measures the compression strength of paper and board. The distance or free span can be set from 0.3 – 0.7mm (steps of 0.1). When performing a compression test on such a short distance the stability of the clamps and instrument is very important. The 17-36 Short Span directs all the forces of the clamped sample to the load cell, making it one of the most accurate instrument available on the market.

Test results

Edgewise compressive strength also referred to as Short Span Compression (SCT) was developed in 1980 as an improved method to measure buckling and compressive failures of paper and board. Short Span Compression is considered an important property and can be used to predict the performance of container board used in the manufacture of corrugated boxes.

The N1 Single-Cell Dispenser is an accessory to the WOLF^® G2 Cell Sorter

The system uses aerosol-free, sterile, and disposable microfluidic cartridges. It allows for bulk cell selection and sorting directly into 96-well or 384-well plates. The N1 Single-Cell Dispenser seamlessly integrates into the intuitive software, enabling easy selection of single cells from a dropdown menu, plate mapping, and sorting initiation. The WOLF G2 and N1 dispenser collaborate to efficiently sort and plate cells in a compact and cost-effective setup. Post-sorting, cell data are indexed well-by-well for accurate cell confirmation.

This setup supports bulk sorting for collecting entire populations or individual cell sorting into standard 96- or 384-well plates using the N1 Single-Cell Dispenser module. It’s ideal for cloning sorted cells or conducting plate-based assays. The gentle sorting mechanism enhances cell viability and outgrowth while minimizing cell stress, thereby avoiding potential gene expression or karyotype changes associated with traditional sorters.
