4 ADVANTAGES OF AXON™ TECHNOLOGY
Innov X Africa • October 28, 2019
X-ray fluorescence (XRF) will provide the material chemistry of diverse alloys and metals. Olympus Vanta™ XRF analyzers
are our first devices that utilize Axon technology, a suite of improvements that have led to a dramatic increase in XRF performance in four different areas.
Lower limits of detection
Axon technology enables our analyzers to process more X-ray counts. In turn, higher X-ray counts result in quicker results, higher precision, and lower limits of detection.
Higher resolution
By minimizing electrical noise, Axon technology delivers outstanding resolution. this is essential for quantifying light elements and precious metals that were previously difficult for an XRF analyzer
to measure.
Repeatable results
Rather than using an internal or external sample to calibrate the analyzer’s energy scale during startup or routine use, Axon technology enables our analyzers to automatically check the energy scale in microseconds before each test. This provides stability; users know that they’re going to get the same result whether or not it’s their first test or their hundredth.
High throughput
Axon technology enables our analyzers to count more of the X-rays that the detector encounters. we additionally use proprietary processing algorithms to maximize the detector’s efficiency.

A meteorite is a fragment of a comet, asteroid, planet, or meteoroid that survived its passage through outer space and the atmosphere to land on the surface of the Earth. Unlike the fleeting beauty of meteors that illuminate the night sky as shooting stars, meteorites are enduring relics from outer space.

Whether you specialize in scrap sorting, metal manufacturing, or precious metal analysis, an XRF analyzer is one of the most essential aspects of your day-to-day success. A faulty or damaged analyzer, inaccurate readouts, hand fatigue—they can all lead to downtime, mix-ups, and rework, which hinder your bottom line. You can’t afford to be anything but fully confident in the XRF analyzer in your hand.

Portable X-ray fluorescence (XRF) and Optical Emission Spectroscopy (OES) equipment provider Innov-X-Africa has noted increased interest in its products from the steel sector, with salesperson Craig Bateman observing that the primary applications are for quality control and scarp sorting applications.

Our Vanta™ handheld XRF analyzer was recently featured on an episode of the popular History Channel TV show Pawn Stars. In the show, people bring items into the shop to potentially sell, trade, or pawn. Often, people don’t have a lot of information about the items that they’re bringing in. To determine a fair price, outside expertise can be required to get more information. That’s where a tool like the Vanta analyzer can help.

The new Vanta ™ GX precious metal analyzer is an affordable way to know the purity and composition of gold, jewelry, coins, and other valuables. Accurate, easy to use, and nondestructive, the countertop instrument delivers precious metal content, karatage and fineness in seconds so jewelers can confidently price the valuables they buy and sell.

Aluminium Metal Recyclers have recently taken delivery of a new Belec In-Spect arc-spark optical emission spectrometer and an Olympus Evident Vanta handheld XRF, both of them supplied by Innov-X Africa, a supplier of portable and handheld XRF elemental analysis instruments for metals and alloys, mining and geology, scrap and recycling, environmental and consumer safety, education and research and general manufacturing requirements in Africa.

Recommended Practice 578 (API RP 578) from the American Petroleum Institute (API) provides guidelines for a material and quality assurance system to verify the composition of alloy components in new and existing piping systems. Following these guidelines is critical for safety since using the right alloy in the right component can help prevent accelerated corrosion or even part failure.
