Anavo (TM) Analyzer boasts fastest measurement time in the industry in a
rugged, handheld configuration
BILLERICA, Mass., March 3 /PRNewswire/ -- Axsun Technologies, Inc., a
leading manufacturer of micro-optoelectronic spectrometers, announced the
availability of a new sample interface for the Anavo (TM) Analyzer, the
fastest handheld NIR spectrometer on the market. This rugged analyzer,
based on Axsun's advanced MEMS-based spectrometer is targeted at material
identification applications ranging from plastics compounding and
recycling, to incoming raw materials inspection to field measurements in
the food and agriculture industry. The new flexible sampling interface will
enable the Anavo to measure materials in a wider range of form factors and
will allow non-contact measurements, providing more flexibility to the
user.
The heart of the Anavo (TM) Analyzer is Axsun's unique micro-optical
platform, combining tunable laser technology, as well as wavelength and
power calibration all in a compact rugged package. The on-board material
libraries and analysis software combined with Axsun's fast-scanning tunable
laser technology provide instantaneous material identification in even the
harshest industrial environments. The Anavo (TM) Analyzer's intuitive user
interface and easy-to-read LCD screen allow for simple operation by either
technical or non-technical users.
"Our customers require a lot of adaptability in their instrument to
address different applications," explained Dale Flanders, CEO of Axsun.
"They also need fast reliable answers, and an instrument that can stand up
to the rigors of harsh industrial environments. The Anavo is a highly
flexible product that can be programmed to address different applications.
The new sampling interface is another example of how we listen to and
address our customers' evolving needs."
Axsun will be demonstrating Anavo (TM) Analyzers at the 59th Pittsburgh
Conference on Analytical Chemistry and Applied Spectroscopy at the Ernest
N. Morial Convention Center in New Orleans, March 3, 2008, at Booth 5509.
Axsun is currently shipping the Anavo in volume to applications in
plastics, polymer and textile identification, and expects that the speed,
performance and rugged design of the Anavo (TM) Analyzer, coupled with the
flexibility of its programmable library, will enable many exciting new
applications.
