Netherlands: Malvern Panalytical has launched a new version of Aeris, a compact X-ray diffractometer (XRD) product. The supplier said that the upgrade contains capabilities previously seen only in much larger systems. The device provides data from polycrystalline materials at ‘competitive’ speeds. Its operational interface simplifies XRD measurements. Grazing-incidence XRD (GIXRD) will enable the examination of thin films and coatings, while transmission measurements will provide more accurate data that are not affected by sample preparation artefacts.
Product manager Wilijan Vissers said, “I’m very proud that we’re launching our new Aeris – a model that continually raises the bar for powder XRD. By providing the data quality of a floor-standing system in a compact instrument, the new Aeris will enable a wider range of our customers to carry out in-depth materials analysis and optimise their processes – helping push the scientific frontier even further forward.”
Netherlands: Malvern Panalytical has appointed Mark Fleiner as its new president. Fleiner, who was previously Business Group Director of the Industrial Solutions Division of Spectris, moved into his new role at Malvern Panalytical on 1 May 2020. He succeeds Paolo Carmassi who spent over three years in the position. Carmassi has left the company to take up an external role. Malvern Panalytical is an analytical instrumentation and automation solutions provider that offers products to a variety of sectors including cement.
Malvern Panalytical launches next version of Epsilon 1 X-ray fluorescence spectrometer
19 March 2019Netherlands: Malvern Panalytical has launched a next version of Epsilon 1 X-ray fluorescence (XRF) spectrometer. The upgrade has reduced the product’s size to 0.15m2. Its precision has been improved by integrating a high-power X-ray tube and a new detector.
“With the new generation of our compact Epsilon 1 benchtop XRF spectrometers, you can take a small yet powerful lab directly to your sample for fast product screening and process control”, said Lieven Kempenaers, Malvern Panalytical Product Manager for benchtop XRF systems.
The Epsilon 1 product is available in a number of versions tailored for difference applications. The Epsilon 1 Lube Oil delivers ASTM 6481-compliant elemental analysis of unused lubricating oils; the Epsilon 1 Sulfur in Fuels quantifies sulphur content in fuels according to ASTM D4294-10 and ISO 20847; the Epsilon 1 Academia enables characterisation of unidentified samples, using Omnian software for standardless analysis; and the integrated camera in the Epsilon 1 for Small Spot Analysis simplifies the investigation of very small objects, inclusions or inhomogeneities.
