Metorex (Finland) has introduced the X-MET 3000TX, an alloy analyser weighing just 1.8 kg. The new analyser, which incorporates advanced x-ray tube technology, aims to provide a fast and easy way to perform alloy analysis outside in the field, inside in the laboratory, or on-site in production facilities. The X-MET 3000TX can also be used to analyze environmental samples for hazardous heavy metals. Grade ID of a sample is obtained in 2–5 seconds and a full assay is obtained in 5–10 seconds.
