Applications

• Natural Products and Dietary Supplements
  Cost-effective and non-destructive material inspection and analysis to assist natural product and supplement manufacturers meet new FDA regulations for the standardization and purity of ingredients.
• Raw Material Inspection and Analysis
  Cost-effective rapid, real-time determination of the constituents and purity of raw materials for a multitude of industries.
• Moisture Analysis
  For cost-effective and rapid, non-destructive, in-situ moisture concentration analysis in a wide range of materials and concentrations.
• Biofuels Analysis
  From characterization of oil content of soybeans and other crops, to quantification of key parameter levels in biofuel processing and quality analysis of final product, near-infrared (NIR) spectroscopy is the ideal measurement tool.
• Biomass Analysis
  From monitoring soil content through assessment of final product energy output, ASD technology shortens the testing time, greatly reduces the cost of measurement techniques, and ultimately improves the quality of the final product.
• Commercial Agriculture
  A proven and versatile analytical tool ideal for both in-field analysis of crops and large numbers of samples quickly, continuously, and non-destructively, at virtually any point in the processing stream for determination of constituent quality.
• Soil Analysis—Commercial
  Analysis of soils for commercial applications such as determination of clay content for swelling potential, characterization of raw materials and monitoring of production processes in cement manufacturing, and more.
• Optical Radiation Measurement
  Measuring the quality and intensity of light and other forms of radiant energy, particularly in the visible and near infrared light spectrum.
• General Chemical Analysis
  Rapid, in-situ determination of the chemical composition and purity of the raw material, in-process materials, and finished product in chemical and other manufacturing processes utilizing chemical ingredients.
• Cosmetics and Beauty Products
  Rapid in-situ analysis of the purity and chemical composition present in raw materials, in-process materials, and finished product for the cosmetics and beauty products industry, including evaluation of color value for hair dye.
• Explosives Analysis and Identification
  Rapid, safe, and convenient on-site, in situ determination of the chemical components and purity of solid explosives and various storage containers, whether identified by labeling or not.
• Food, Beverage, and Dairy
  Rapid, non-destructive and in-situ analysis of fat, protein, moisture, sugar, brix and acidity levels for the food, beverage, and dairy industry.
• Grain and Seed Analysis
  For non-destructive in-field testing, monitoring of quality during processing, final product verification, and in selective breeding programs for enhancing the quality of grains and other crops.
• Petroleum Products
  Quantification and qualification of product quality for various chemical and physical characteristics of petrochemical and petroleum based products.
• Plastics and Plastic Films
  Qualification and quantification of raw material prior to introduction into a production process and analysis of in-process materials and finished products in the industrial plastics industry.
