Handheld XRF for Non-Standard Alloy QA/QC Applications

摘要

Handheld XRF (HHXRF) is the go-to tool for QA/QC, alloy identification and failure analysis of incoming and in-use standard industrial metals and alloys. Advancements in technology and data analysis software now make it an indispensable tool for non-standard and challenging QA/ QC situations. For instance, they are now used ? to inspect powder for sintered metal used in 3D printing ? to manage the quality of miniature alloy components in consumer products ? to classify rare earth magnet materials ? and even to determine the production floor source of tiny metal contaminant fragments found in food product manufacturing.
