Used Spectro Lab Maxx Spark Oes Spectrometer for Ferrous & Non-Ferrous Metals

An OES (Optical Emission Spectrometry) spectrometer is an analytical instrument used for rapid, multi-element determination of metal materials. It works by generating a high-frequency spark discharge on the sample surface, which excites the atoms to emit characteristic spectral lines. The instrument then analyzes the intensity of these lines to determine the concentration of each element.

OES spectrometers are widely used for the analysis of ferrous and non-ferrous metals, including cast iron, steel, copper, aluminum, zinc, nickel, titanium, and their alloys. They can simultaneously detect a broad range of elements-from major components like C, Si, Mn, P, and S to trace elements such as Cr, Ni, Mo, Cu, Al, and Pb-covering most elements required for metal quality control.

OES offers fast analysis (typically within 30-60 seconds per sample), high precision, and excellent stability. Its multi-channel or CMOS detector technology ensures simultaneous detection of multiple elements in a single excitation. The instrument features a user-friendly benchtop design, low operating costs, and robust performance, making it an ideal solution for foundries, metal processing plants, and quality control laboratories.
