Optical emission spectrometers for metal identification

Optical emission spectroscopy or OES is a well trusted and widely used analytical technique for metal identification to determine the elemental composition of a broad range of metals. This process is essential throughout the metals industry from trace element analysis in scrap metal, to melt process control in foundries and incoming material inspection in manufacturing. Arc spark spectrometers identify low levels of tramp, trace and treatment elements in metals, such as nitrogen in steel. This trace metal analysis technique is fast and easy to use, offering accuracy and precision needed for high-performance metal identification.
