The 3-D Precision Machine team adds another valuable piece of technology to their extensive list with the inclusion of a portable XRF Analyzer.
Verification is key in the manufacturing setting especially for the aerospace and medical industries. The majority of our customers’ mission-critical components require extremely specific material alloy grade and chemistry to ensure optimal performance. The portable Vanta C X-ray fluorescence (XRF) analyzer has given our team the opportunity to ensure material composition from the moment material hits our dock regardless of the material source.
How it works:
XRF is an acronym for X-ray fluorescence; a process where electrons are displaced from their atomic orbital position. This displacement releases a measurable burst of energy that is registered by the XRF analyzer in a non-destructive way. The analyzer is able to categorize the energy by element. The entire process occurs within seconds with immediate results.
