Software Features

Confidence for the Most Critical Applications

Many industries rely on the raw materials and materials provided throughout the product lifecycle from primary metal production to engineered manufacturing to manufactured and assembled parts. Inspecting materials as part of a QA/QC program is important because the cost of failure can be catastrophic.

Vanta^™ handheld XRF provides material chemistry information fast and is optimized for traceability and rapid reporting.

Vanta analyzers streamline record keeping and traceability. Users can easily capture and export comprehensive shot data.

Optional 5-megapixel panoramic camera and aiming camera
Integrated GPS
Automatic time / date stamp
Custom data label templates

Mission Critical Applications In mission critical industries like aerospace and automobile manufacturing, mistakes have a high cost of failure. Vanta analyzers help manufacturers maintain high quality standards with features including: Comprehensive grade identification: The standard grade library includes more than 600 unique alloy grades. The residual ‘tramp’ library, based on industry standards, simplifies grade matching. SmartSort for high test throughput: Automatically extends testing time for light elements when necessary and eliminates unnecessarily long tests. Small spot collimator: The optional collimator helps users isolate small features from the background material. Optional 5-megapixel panoramic camera: Save and archive a photographic record of tested surfaces.

Plumbing Component Compliance

Vanta analyzers are used to identify and quantify trace levels of lead (at and below 0.25%) in Envirobrass and more than 125 common copper grades as well as to measure the presence of lead in plumbing pipes, fixtures, and components that carry drinking water in order to comply with the Safe Drinking Water Act.

Testing for the presence of lead helps manufacturers prevent material mix-ups and determine the levels of lead present in components.

Regulatory Compliance for Medical Devices It is critical for medical device manufacturers to confirm alloy quality. Small changes in the concentrations of constituent elements or impurities can be critical as they may alter the strength-to-weight ratio and corrosion resistance. Vanta analyzers enable medical device manufacturers create a record of material identification as part of the overall documentation and compliance process.
