Webinar: 3D Dynamic Image Analysis Compared to Other Methods to Identify Crystal Shape

Tue, 11 Jun 2019 08:52:00 +0000

In this webinar we will present data from research conducted at University of Hohenheim on crystal samples of Sodium Chloride, Mono Sodium Glutamate (MSG) and Sugar. These crystals all exhibit particle shapes which diverge from spherical shape by different degrees. These different particle shapes, as well as sizes, can be measured and quantified on the same instrument – a dynamic image analyzer. Those measurements were compared with measurements made on other instruments – a stand-alone laser diffraction analyzer, a simple scanner reporting size and shape, and a manual microscope and SEM. We’ll show how the image analyzer provides data that agree closely with sizes and shapes measured on the other three instruments, in all three orthogonal dimensions and on a much larger and representative sample of particles. Particle shape is becoming an ever more used measurement technology in characterizing particulate samples, because size alone is recognized to often not provide distinguishing differences among samples.

Join us in learning more about Image Analysis and how it has become the most common technology for measuring particle morphology. Special guest, Patrick Wilms from the University of Hohenheim will talk about his experience using Microtrac’s Microtrac PartAn 3D and the advantages of imagining technology.

This webinar is scheduled for Thu, Jun 20, 2019 11:00 AM – 12:00 PM EDT.

Webinar: Hybrid Technology For Complete Metal Powder Morphological Characterization

Sun, 12 May 2019 16:47:00 +0000

Microtrac’s Sync uses an innovative hybrid method of particle size and shape measurement that combines laser diffraction and image analysis. Metal Powders require high flowability and packing density for even, fast loading and high strength in final parts. Key parameters to spec are Sphericity, Smoothness, and Size Distribution. These properties are important for outgoing QC for Metal Powder manufacturers and incoming QC for Powder Metalllurgy parts manufacturers. This presentation describes the QC requirements and a combination analytical instrument which measures them.

Join us for this webinar as we cover:

How Microtrac integrated laser diffraction and dynamic image analysis technology in one instrument
Metal Powder Parts Manufacturing Methods
Importance of Powder Morphology
Quality Control for Metal Powders

Webinar: Introducing the Microtrac Sync: Hybrid Laser Diffraction and Dynamic Image Particle Analyzer

Tue, 18 Sep 2018 10:45:00 +0000

With over 25 years at the forefront of technological advances in measuring material size and shape in real-time, Microtrac is the established leader in delivering innovative analysis solutions.

Microtrac is proud to announce our new synchronous size and shape analyzer, Sync, which integrates the world’s leading laser diffractiontechnology with the world’s leading dynamic image analysis technology – Same bench, same sample, same run, same flow cell, same user interface. Users can now get their tried and true particle size distribution together with particle morphology in a single, easy to use graphical user interface.

Using our patented methodology, the Sync interrogates particles, wet or dry, with laser light while simultaneously a high-speed digital camera takes images. The data collected is processed by our FLEX software and presents the user with particle size and shape information. While the software is powerful, the graphical user interface is intuitive and easy to use. The Sync enables users to get more detailed information about their material than ever before and will quickly render size-only instrumentation outdated and incomplete.

Please join us for an in depth webinar on the features and capabilities of the Sync. Let us share with you how Microtrac is changing the paradigm for material characterization.

Identifying good, bad, and ugly particles with dynamic image analysis

Fri, 04 Aug 2017 05:22:00 +0000

Published on Jul 27, 2016

Learn how you can identify good, bad, and ugly particles with advanced data analysis capability featured in Microtrac's Imaging technology. This webinar will explain the following; how to identify contaminants during production/handling/packaging, impact of too high/low aspect ratio, surface roughness, sphericity, or transparency has on final product quality, seeing is believing - view particles, search capability - display results based on user defined conditions, benefits of comparing morphological parameters, and graph manipulation. Dynamic Image Analysis is ideal for measuring the size and shape of materials from several microns to several millimeters.

Using Image Analysis to Replace Sieves

Thu, 03 Aug 2017 03:44:00 +0000

If you’re still using sieve analysis for your particle analysis needs, you may be faced with frequent measurement errors such as failing to collect the complete set of particles from each sieve, mis-weighing, incorrect data entry or calculation errors with distribution percent values. Not to mention this method can be frustratingly slow and labor-intensive. Image analysis gets you past these hurdles with minimal effort.

In this webinar you'll learn about making the transition to image analysis from sieving!

Microtrac, Inc. is a particle characterization instrumentation company dedicated to particle science and customer satisfaction. Microtrac released the first commercially available particle size analyzer using laser diffraction. We have over 40 years particle characterization experience and technology.

Use of Electric Power Generation By-Products in Wallboard, Cement and Plastics

Mon, 31 Jul 2017 05:20:00 +0000

Coal represents a major contributor to the production of electric power. It also provides coke for production of steel, gasified coal for production of carbon monoxide and hydrogen to produce Tylenol and NutraSweet, and coal tar for light oils and ammonia. The large amount of coal used for power generation produces byproducts that are deemed deleterious: sulfur dioxide contributes to production of acid rain; nitrogen oxides contribute to acid rain, ozone, and smog; particulates contribute to production of smog; CO2 is believed by some scientists to contribute to global warming. The Clean Air Act of 1970 advanced a beginning to reduce the quantities of these substances emitted to the environment. Subsequent acts placed further requirements to reduce environmental exposure to acid rain (1990) or to adopt Clean-Coal Technology (2005). This paper provides a short outline of some of the advances and positive actions taken by the electric power companies to comply with these acts by using by-products of coal burning for electric power...
