Microtrac propose une gamme d'analyseurs optiques de particules. Microtrac est le seul fournisseur mondial d'équipements d'analyse dynamique d'images, de diffraction laser et d'analyse de tamis avec une compréhension approfondie des forces et faiblesses de chaque méthode.
Particle Size is the fastest way to rule methods in or out. Find your range on the scale. In case two methods overlap, the questions below will help you decide.
Do you need particle shape, not just size?
Only Dynamic Image Analysis (DIA) measures shape and individual particles - the others report a size distribution only.
Do you need to analyze below ~1 µm?
Then Dynamic Light Scattering (DLS), or Laser Diffraction (LD) down to 10 nm. Above ~1 mm, Dynamic Image Analysis (DIA).
Do you need to catch a few oversized grains?
Dynamic Image Analysis (DIA) detects them reliably; laser diffraction and DLS can miss them.
Are you looking to replace sieve analysis?
Dynamic Image Analysis (DIA) reproduces sieve results while removing the manual effort and screen wear.
