Arc/Spark
Optical Emission Spectroscopy is an analytical technique used to obtain the
elemental composition of different alloys with varying base materials. An electrical arc is passed through a sample,
under an argon atmosphere, heating and exiting the atoms within the
material. While discharging energy the
atoms give off a characteristic wavelength of light that is detected and
measured to obtain an accurate weight percentage of the elements present in the
sample.
EPI-MTG
has a Thermo Scientific ARL 3460 Metals
Analyzer. We are capable of
analyzing metals that have a base material of Iron, Nickel, and Copper.
