i-Nalysis Covered in Aerospace Engineering and Manufacturing

Tuesday, May 5th, 2009

The word is really getting out about i-Nalysis! Aerospace Engineering & Manufacturing has a nice story about how i-Nalysis can help aircraft suppliers, aerospace companies and aircraft owners know whether their parts have lead in them. Reporter Terry Costlow, who’s been writing about technology since the early ‘80s, does a great job getting at the [...]

i-Nalysis Covered in Design News

Monday, May 4th, 2009

Rob Spiegel’s “Lead-Free Zone” blog at Design News is a must-read for people who follow RoHS and other environmental issues facing our industry. So weren’t we happy when Rob wrote about i-Nalysis and our new X-ray fluorescence technology! Rob’s post discusses how with our XrF technology everyone – from thrift shop owners to supply chain [...]

XrF and Made in the USA

Monday, February 23rd, 2009

These @#$%^&* seats are too small- if only an XrF could fix THAT! I am sitting here on a flight to Atlanta, with my arms pinched to my sides (middle seat, natch) and my XrF in the overhead compartment.
Nice that these things can travel carry on. In the bad old days (OK, still even today) [...]

XrF and Testing in response to Globalization

Thursday, February 19th, 2009

Testing is going mainstream, as we move into a world of globalization. It has become
increasingly difficult to say “where” a product is from, and therefore almost impossible to
know, truly KNOW for certain what it is made of, without a quick and simple XrF test.If we say a CD player is made in China, what does [...]

XrF and networked data

Tuesday, February 17th, 2009

What is it that makes XrF so interesting to farmers and recyclers, oilmen and electronics inspectors, toy makers and forensic dentists?It’s the ability to know what’s in your samples. That’s it. It’s a fairly simple thing, to know- REALLY know - what you have in front of you.
Or in our case, what all your people [...]

XrF in the News

Friday, February 13th, 2009

Mass High Tech, the New England start-up newspaper (by which I mean newspaper ABOUT start-ups), has often written about the XrF industry, and about instrumentation and testing in general.

XrF and the President

Monday, January 19th, 2009

Well, regardless of your political persuasion, there are some amazing things about tomorrow’s inauguration.
We here in our humble lab have noticed some things for which we are grateful in this inauguration as well. For one, environmental spending is already up in the 4th quarter, compared to the last several years, as EPA offices and other [...]

What can you do with XrF?

Tuesday, January 13th, 2009

Well, I got that question 3 times today.  The words were the same, but XrF is many things to many people, so it matters who is asking.
X-ray Fluorescence can “see” any inorganic elements in a sample, which means there are about 70 different elements it can see! So- you can use it to find things [...]

What is XrF?

Monday, January 12th, 2009

Many people have asked us what this X-ray Fluorescence (XrF) thing is really. Here is a brief answer to that question.
XrF is a scientific technique based on a basic fact of nature- every element in this universe of ours sends back an echo- but a personally modified echo- of any X-ray that hits it. (XrF [...]

I quit my job for XrF

Friday, January 9th, 2009

Yes, I quit my job. It’s a strange thing to do, given the times. I had been working for a company that makes X-ray Fluorescence (XrF) analyzers, actually really good XrF units, but saw a way to move this industry- and its customers (YOU!) to the next generation product.
At that point, I went to a [...]
