The industry innovator

‍

Perform better analysis, faster, with SciAps best-in-class analyzers. SciAps marketing and product development teams are veterans of Niton, Innov-X, ThermoFisher Scientific, and Olympus, bringing decades of experience to developing and supporting handheld analyzers. Global customers include oil/gas, metals and mining, aerospace, battery and strategic metals (lithium, rare-earth elements), scrap metal recycling, chemical and petrochemical, military, forensics and law enforcement. SciAps instruments are configured to measure elements in all types of materials, so applications are always expanding, recently including space research, pandemic anti-viral coatings, agriculture, and environmental contaminants.

LIBS: New tool, new opportunities

When it comes to innovation, nothing beats SciAps next-generation Z-900 Series handheld LIBS analyzer. See virtually any element, from H to U, with one instrument. Or use our industry-specific models to focus on carbon or lithium in a handheld. The Z Series features an all-new ergonomic design, a 0.5 lb. weight reduction down to about 3.5 lbs. (1.6 kg), improved heat dissipation, and completely updated software and processing electronics. Our accompanying Profile Builder software provides operators complete freedom to modify parameters.

Academic loaners available.

Contact us with a brief description of what you want to measure. We frequently loan analyzers for a few weeks or a month to researchers from the U.S. and Canada to perform a study or field analysis anywhere in the world. LIBS is often a preferred technique, especially for students. Common ways people use the analyzers:

• Professors use the analyzers as teaching tools in the classroom. It’s a quick way to do lab experiments without the hassle of big lab instruments. Students can watch the analysis as it’s happening, get with instant data, and look at the details through the software on the PC.
• Researchers use the analyzers to get instant results in the field, getting an idea of what samples are present. They don’t have to bring the samples back to the lab, or they can reduce what they carry back. The chemistry is completed and recorded right in the field.

Reach out to us at academic@sciaps.com. University researchers can borrow a unit for a month provided they give us a summary publication of their research, that we can post, without impacting any of their publishing rights.
