Sample Preparation for OES and C/S Analysis
In OES (optical emission spectrometry) and C/S (carbon-sulphur) analysis, results depend directly on the quality of the sample surface. The Multi EQP-100 performs punch, press and surface operations on metallic samples in a standardised, repeatable manner — removing surface preparation as a source of analytical error.
Why It Matters
When an OES instrument reads from a sample, it expects a homogeneous, clean metallic surface across the entire analysis window. Incorrect punching or an irregular surface means false oxide peaks, poor reproducibility and erroneous calibration.
Instrument
The single-station solution for OES and C/S sample preparation. Manages punch, press, flattening and cutting operations from one control unit with up to 50 tons of hydraulic pressure.
The Multi EQP-100 is an automatic hydraulic press system that takes metallic samples through punch, press, flattening and cutting operations from a single control unit. It operates at up to 50 tons of pressure.
The geometry and surface quality of the sample presented to an OES instrument directly affects analytical reproducibility. The Multi EQP-100 standardises this step, eliminating operator-induced variability.
For C/S analysis, sample mass and dimensions are also critical. The cutting station makes it reliable to prepare samples at the correct size and mass for the instrument.
