Know your materials with Vanta™ handheld X-ray fluorescence (XRF) analyzers

Solutions for the Cement, Aggregate, and Building Materials Industries

Vanta handheld X-ray fluorescence (XRF) analyzers enable you to easily ID incoming materials and implement an efficient process control program for cement production.

Vanta analyzers make it easy to characterize preblend stockpiles, monitor material differences for product changeover, and identify various stockpile types including limestone, quarried sand, foundry sand, iron slag, ash (bottom and fly), and coal (as fuel).

Benefits of handheld XRF for the cement industry:

  • Easy grade control for incoming stockpile material to separate according to relevant compounds/elements for cement: calcium oxide (CaO), aluminum oxide (Al2O3), silicon dioxide (SiO2), and iron(III) oxide (Fe2O3)
  • Track composition results and map materials with the analyzer’s built-in GPS
  • Rapidly identify unknown larger items/materials in received stockpiles
  • Grade control fuel material according to sulfur content
  • Verify refractory brick composition as part of a supplier quality program
  • Verify clinker grinding media status (used/new)
