During the product development of lubricants, in all production steps – blending and bottling, especially if done by contract blenders – XRF ensures that the same product quality is established worldwide. The S2 RANGER from Bruker AXS (Germany) not only achieves a high precision for low concentration values of a single element, it is also setup to analyse several elements simultaneously. The XFlash detector records the sample spectra with a high resolution, neighbouring element lines are clearly separated.
