InfraXact™

High performance quality control

InfraXact™ delivers accurate NIR analysis for laboratory and production line testing. With immediate results, it enables successful real-time production control all the way from raw material intake to finished product. And it is so simple to use, anyone with a minimum of training can make accurate analysis measurements.

NIR technology

Safe and non-destructive NIR technology

InfraXact™ is a monochromatorbased Near Infrared (NIR) reflectance analyser with a scanning range of 570-1850 nm. It can be supported by software for calibration and networking via the internet and has facilities for automated sample identification via RFID.

NIR analysis is a spectroscopic technique, which makes use of the naturally occurring electromagnetic spectrum. The NIR region is the area of the spectrum defined by wavelengths as between 700nm and 2500nm.

The Near Infrared area has proved to be the ideal spectral area for making natural product and chemical property measurements of liquid, solid, slurry or gaseous samples. Near Infrared products that are based on dispersive grating based monochromators afford the user the highest level of signal-to-noise available in any commercially available NIR product. The advantage of this boost in performance is better precision in an application and the capability to measure high scattering and multi-phase matrices.

InfraXact quality control

CasesQuality feed for quality food

The quality of the products from leading Latin American dairy producers, Dos Pinos, starts in their own feed plant, where all raw materials and finished feed for their cattle are tested in a sophisticated feed laboratory.

RINA

Monitoring and support via the internet

The InfraXact™ and other NIR technology-based instruments are supported by the RINA software suite. This provides an internet-based network connecting individual instruments to a control centre. NIR experts at the centre perform monitoring and management tasks remotely, allowing the local user to get on with routine analysis operations without having to worry about instrument performance or reliability of results.

Accurate analysis throughout the production process

The InfraXact™ Pro is ideal for use in production line testing as it includes a touch screen PC and is dust and moisture proof. It delivers practically instantaneous results and fulfils IP65 requirements.

Reliability and traceability

The InfraXact™ sample cell can be loaded with an identification code, ensuring total sample control based on RFID (Radio Frequency Identification). This eliminates the risk of user errors and ensures perfect data traceability.
