Over the last ten years the development and application of handheld XRF instruments has made them an invaluable tool in many disciplines within engineering, aerospace, oil and gas, power generation and scrap recycling. Recent advances in detector technology in the shape of the Silicon Drift Detector (SDD) of which Bruker was the first to install their X-Flash SDD detector in their S1 TurboSD which has allowed vastly improved analysis time reduction. |

Light element detection (Aluminium and Magnesium alloys) and more accurate analysis reporting . New applications for hand held XRF technology have seen areas such as environmental, archaeology and health and safety all applying this powerful analysis tool achieve near laboratory results in the field. |
