The Vanta Element XRF analyzer series provides elemental analysis for fast alloy grade identification and sorting at an affordable price. The series is available in two cost-effective models:
Vanta Element analyzer for affordable alloy ID
Vanta Element-S analyzer for affordable alloy ID, including light element detection for magnesium (Mg), aluminum (Al), silicon (Si), sulfur (S), and phosphorus (P)
Both models feature fast grade ID and clear on-screen grade comparison to speed up metal testing for scrap sorting, metal manufacturing, and precious metals analysis.
The smartphone-like user interface is easy to use and easy to learn, helping to streamline both user training and the sorting process.
The Vanta Element series includes connectivity features to help streamline your scrap metal recycling and quality control processes.
