Since Malvern Instruments revealed the
new Mastersizer 3000 laser diffraction particle size analyzer to the world it
has become clear that the development team's vision of a beautifully designed,
technologically advanced system that anyone can use has been realized.
Certainly that's what initial feedback suggests! The Mastersizer 3000 delivers
the widest measurement range available in a single system (10 nm to 3.5 mm),
encompasses significant advances in dry powder dispersion to extend dry
measurement to more materials, and its smart software ensures that making good
particle size measurements is effortless for novices and experts alike.
"We're really excited by people's
response to the new system and the way they see it easing their workload," said
Paul Kippax, Malvern's Product Group Manager for diffraction. "Delivering so
many productivity advantages in such a beautiful package is a real tribute to
the expertise and skill of the Mastersizer 3000 product development team at
Malvern. And I'm pleased to say that they've all been sharing their experiences
on the Malvern blog at
www.materials-talks.com."
"When defining the project, we asked
the team to halve the length of the optical bench. Not only were they able to
do that, they also improved ease-of-operation and performance at the same time.
The engineering throughout is remarkable and delivers enhanced functionality,
particularly in the sample dispersion accessories," continues Paul. "And the
software team started from scratch, putting in place a customer-led test
program to produce a system that offers streamlined method development and
user-friendly data generation tailored to individual needs."
The new Mastersizer 3000 is the product
of extensive customer consultation and feedback, and its design and capabilities
reflect the needs of users across the widest possible range of industries and
applications. It has been engineered to make routine particle sizing even
simpler and more automated so that all users, whether they are expert analysts
or have little particle sizing experience, can quickly and easily make good,
reliable measurements across an extended measurement range. Since bench space
is always in short supply, the new instrument has been developed to have the
smallest possible footprint, an achievement that has required a complete
re-engineering of its highly sophisticated optics.
The Mastersizer 3000 delivers precise
high-resolution wet and dry sample measurement from 10 nm to 3.5 mm, with
rapid, reliable operator-independent measurements, for increased lab
productivity. A range of sample dispersion accessories offers a solution for
every application, including dry dispersion of even fragile particles. The
system's simple intuitive software is designed to lighten the analyst's
workload, driving user-defined measurement and delivering data in a format
tailored to the user's own requirements
Now, anyone can make good measurements
and get exactly the data they need quickly and easily with the Mastersizer
3000. The system's flexibility makes it ideal for the multitude of particle
sizing applications for which laser diffraction is now the technique of choice.
