Scrap metal recycling and sorting requires fast, accurate, on-site analysis if the maximum price for the scrap, both incoming and outgoing, is to be achieved.

The X-MET7500 Scrap Metal Analyser is a rapid, reliable and cost-effective handheld X-ray Fluorescence (XRF) analyser widely used across the non-destructive testing (NDT) industry. Handheld XRF analysers, often referred to as ‘X-ray guns’ are used within the scrap metal industry to achieve the most consistent analysis results helping secure the best price for incoming and outgoing scrap material.

The X-MET7500 measures the key elements in a range of metal alloys including Stainless, Tool and Low Alloy Steels, Nickel, Titanium, Copper, Cobalt and Aluminium alloys by placing the X-MET against the alloy, pulling the trigger and after a few seconds the chemical composition and alloy grade is displayed. This allows optimum scrap metal recycling and scrap sorting to be performed with ease and confidence.

The X-MET7500 Scrap Metal Analyser is part of the X-MET7000 Series. The X-MET7000 Series offers an improved, intuitive and easy-to-read graphical user interface. Large functional icons make learning how to use the instrument simple and quick. The bright and high contrast 4.3” Blanview® transmissive LCD touch screen ensures optimal outdoor viewing, even in direct sunlight. Its ease of use guarantees maximum productivity. Up to 10-12 hours battery life enable operation for a full working day on a single battery charge.

The handheld XRF analysers come with a new enhanced data download reporting flexibility. The results screen and reports can be easily customised, e.g. to show only pass/fail messages. The rugged, yet light and compact design of the X-MET7000 Series withstands the harshest environments and weather conditions.
