CTLGroup will host two, one-day training sessions in July for two FluXana products:

Vulcan Fusion Machine
Vaneox Press

Vulcan - Fusion Technology is used to prepare samples for analysis by X-ray fluorescence pectros-
copy. It is also used to improve precicion over pressed powder technology. Using a Vulcan in combination with the extractor hood will ensure that every bead is produced under the same conditions.

Vaneox - Pressing Technology - Most samples
in X-ray fluorescence are prepared with pressed powder technique. FluXana has developed the Vaneox series to allow simple and easy handling making pressed pellets. A series of different handling systems including different diameters, rings and aluminium caps are available. Also a simple mixer is available to achieve a homogeneous mix with binder.

The sessions will be taught by:

Dr. Rainer Schramm,
General Manager, FluXana

Mr. Oliver Meyer,
XRF Application Service, FluXana

When: 26.-30 July 2010

The purpose of the conference is to bring experts and users of XRD, XRF and EDXRF from industry
and universities in contact with each other and with suppliers of instruments, chemicals and accessories. You will find more information about the conference at http://xraynorway.no.
