Thermo Fisher Scientific has announced a new addition to its range of automated optical emission and X-ray fluorescence spectrometers. Specially designed for high-speed production control laboratories in the iron and steel industry, the ARL SMS-2500 automation solution provides increased sample turnaround through a tighter integration of sample preparation with the use of a larger, stronger and faster robot. The system uses reliable components to ensure increased system uptime, including vision system, sample labelling, radioactivity measurement and fixed magazine for standards. The robot has an arm length of 902 mm with a gripper and six moving axes. It is designed to handle heavy loads of up to 5 kg in industrial environments with high precision. All system components operate simultaneously for optimal efficiency, while sample priority management, temporary sample storage and rapid transfer between system components allows for short sample turnaround.
