X-Ray Fluorescence Spectroscopy

X-Ray Fluorescence Spectroscopy

Advanced elemental analysis for industry and research

X-ray fluorescence spectroscopy is a powerful, non-destructive analytical technique for determining the elemental composition of materials. Malvern Panalytical has pioneered XRF technology for over six decades, delivering instruments that set the global standard for accuracy, precision, and reliability across industries including mining, metals, cement, petroleum, and environmental monitoring.

Our XRF solutions span the full spectrum of analytical requirements, from high-throughput production control to advanced research applications. Wavelength-dispersive XRF systems deliver the highest accuracy for demanding applications such as primary standards certification and regulatory compliance testing. Energy-dispersive XRF instruments provide rapid screening and multi-element analysis with minimal sample preparation, ideal for quality control and process optimisation.

The Zetium platform represents the pinnacle of XRF performance, combining next-generation detector technology with advanced software algorithms to deliver unmatched sensitivity and resolution. Our Epsilon range brings energy-dispersive XRF capability to laboratories seeking fast, accurate elemental analysis without the complexity of wavelength-dispersive systems. Every system integrates seamlessly with our comprehensive sample preparation equipment and omnian standardless analysis software to streamline your analytical workflow from sample to result.
