There is no longer a need to open bags, sacks, drums and other containers of incoming raw materials to remove a sample for identity testing in the laboratory
The new and portable LabSpec Vis-NIR spectroscopy systems enable fast and efficient measurements through-the-bag to confirm or otherwise the identity of incoming raw materials.
Each measurement and identity confirmation typically takes just one second.
The LabSpec is specifically designed for portability.
The rugged and compact design enables completely independent battery operation, wireless connectivity, fibre-optic measuring probe and remote trigger device, making it ideal for use in a raw material goods inwards environment.
In a world where regulatory bodies and more stringent quality measures continuously demand more testing of raw materials, the new LabSpec machines offer a simple, fast and convenient way to perform more raw materials testing.
The inconvenience of breaking into packaging (possibly having already moved material into a dedicated sampling area), taking a sample, resealing the packaging, transporting sample to the laboratory, sample preparation, analysis and reporting, can often be reduced dramatically or completely removed.
LabSpec Vis-NIR spectroscopy systems can work through the majority of typical packaging materials because they use a high intensity contact probe with built-in light source and a unique post dispersive optical system.
Four basic models of LabSpec are currently available depending on resolution requirements and requirement for a built in light source.
Each LabSpec model can be specified with up to three spectrometers installed depending on wavelength range required.
Typically a high intensity contact probe is used for through-the-bag measurements, however an almost limitless range of fibre-optic measurement probes can also be used.
