Think "Different"!
Challenge conventional sample processing.
The Steel Lab container is the no-compromise solution for automatic sample preparation in the steel industry. The compact and self-contained laboratory is suited to fit inside of standard 20ft shipping containers, leading to an immense simplification of transportation and installation. Due to the small-footprint design of the milling machine, even smaller container versions are available i.e. for low ceilings. Furthermore, the operator has sufficient room to move and do maintenance.
The modular automation concept of the Steel Lab provides the maximum in flexibility for finding exactly the configuration that meets the requirements of the customer. Selectable automation components are the OES analyser, optical devices for pass/fail and spark point detection, sample labelling systems, sample registration terminals, and various types of sample magazines. Standard equipment inclusions are vibration absorbing feet, air conditioning, oxygen sensor, argon connection system, and argon purifier.
The PrepMaster software controls and tracks all automation processes, integrates analysers and other components, and establishes the connection to IMP’s ControlTrack LIMS. The basic PrepMaster version includes customizing to specific requirements such as sample identification, configurability of all interfaces, remote and web access.
The Steel Lab offers the optimum in performance and flexibility at a very affordable price with the well-known quality of equipment that IMP provides.
