Spectrometers for Research, Development & Education
Vibrational spectroscopy as the key to a deeper understanding of chemical processes
Near-infrared (NIR) and Raman spectroscopy are successful methods for analyzing chemical processes. There are good reason for this: Light-based technologies are ideal for fast, simple analysis. Results are available almost in real-time. This is a major advantage over other analytical methods such as wet chemistry or chromatography, especially when it comes to reaction monitoring and purification. As non-destructive and often completely contact-free methods, light-based technologies guarantee measurement results without influencing the reaction system, as is unavoidable with a sample draw. NIR and Raman are established methods for formulation development in the chemical and pharmaceutical industries as well as in academic research. As a result, they are becoming increasingly important in the training of future specialists.
Full data access
Our spectrometers collect high-quality spectra and provide them as raw data (.txt, .csv, or .spc) for further processing. Depending on the problem, our customers then use the spectrometer's own software packages (e.g., for PCA and PLS modelling) or other applications such as Python or Matlab. We offer software development kits for our NIR spectrometers. These provide full access for complete integration and control. This is often a valuable addition to projects, especially in an academic environment.
