Well, its August, and it is almost like summer in New England. Normally we have 2 seasons here- Winter and the Fourth of July. Now we have Winter and Rainy Season. I-Nalysis may add a division for mold farming…
The economy has been all in the news lately, and surprisingly the tentative rebound has hit [...]

Earlier I touched upon exactly what XRF is and talked about how it works. Since it’s turned out to be one of our most popular blog posts, I figured we could spend more time on the topic.
Last time, we talked about how every element in the universe sends back different energy X-rays when scanned [...]

So, I’ve spent a lot of time lately talking about all the new lead laws and how new lead testing will be required to make sure consumer products don’t have any lead in them. However, what I haven’t spent a lot of time talking about are the other industries that actually need lead in their [...]

CNNMoney is the latest to cover the concerns of smaller manufacturers and toymakers regarding the Consumer Product Safety Improvement Act (CPSIA) and how these new lead testing requirements threaten to overwhelm their businesses.
(Somebody should tell these guys about how pocket XRF analyzers can solve a lot of their problems…)
It’s a good article and includes [...]

Recently, the Consumer Products Safety Commission denied a petition by the National Association of Manufacturers (NAM) for a one year delay in the planned labeling requirements for children’s products that Congress ordered in the Consumer Product Safety Improvement Act (CPSIA) of 2008. I suspect that since manufacturers are nervous about the limited time they have [...]

We’re always on the lookout for news about the latest lead laws and how they’re affecting businesses of all sizes. When this story appeared in the MetroWest Daily News last week, it caught my eye since this is right in our backyard here in Massachusetts. In the article, reporter David Riley talks to toy importer [...]

Thanks to the folks at SAE Vehicle Engineering for the nice article about i-Nalysis, which you can find here.  
The article has a great photo of our i-Nalysis instrument analyzing a sample. iD-Prime from i-Nalysis is the first palm-sized X-ray fluorescence device and the photo does a nice job of showing how small and easy it is to [...]

At i-Nalysis we don’t think only big companies with lots of money should be able to use X-ray fluorescence. Plenty of smaller organizations – manufacturers, suppliers, government agencies, universities — should be able to use XrF to know what’s in the products they’re selling and using, too.
So we take a different approach to XrF. The [...]

The media “hits” just keep on coming! Electronic Engineering News Digest’s article on i-Nalysis is worth checking out. You can find it here. In this recession more publications are interested in our X-ray fluorescence instrument because more companies are interested in affordable XrF testing.
The need to know what’s in your products doesn’t go away just [...]

In recent months, there’s been a lot of buzz about the Consumer Product Safety Improvement Act regulations around lead. Plenty of magazines and newspapers have paid close attention since the regulations affect parents and kids (because some toys, especially older ones, contain lead) as well as businesses (because smaller manufacturers have found it tough to [...]
