The xrFuse 1 is an instrument that allows for the seamless sample preparation of glass beads for XRF and ICP solutions. The machine expands our range of industry leading electric fusion machines that are already available in two and six positions. The xrFuse 1 takes all of the robust and reliable features from the xrFuse 2 and 6, into a compact machine, ideal for lower throughput users or specialised applications. Through our proprietary quick change-out mechanism, users can alternate between XRF glass bead and ICP solutions preparations in a matter of seconds. The unit is cold-to-cold, fully CE certified, extremely safe and easy to use.
xrFuse 1 can be configured as a 1 or 2 position machine, depending on your throughput requirements.
The xrFuse range of automated electric fusion machines has been developed based on more than 25 years of experience of fusion technology and applications. Designed with the latest thermal imaging technology, consumer tested in the biggest XRF laboratories in the world, xrFuse is designed with the customer in mind.
Zero Contamination – The ceramic cradle and holders ensure that the environment for creating beads has zero contamination from these sources.
Process Flexibility/ ICP – The machine is designed for both pre-heating and ICP processes. Simple to access, control and monitor. All at the touch of a button.
Simple User Interface – Simple touch screen interface that is easy to use. Provides the flexibility to cope with simple operation or complex one off experiments.
Safe Operation – The external surfaces on the machine have been modelled and developed with the latest IR technology. This ensures all external surfaces are safe to touch. The machine is CE certified and independently tested.
