Non-metallic inclusions are always present in steel, to an extent that depends on the steel grade and the production process. Since inclusions strongly affect steel properties and smooth running of the production process, they must be controlled. The Thermo Scientific™ ARL iSpark™ 8860 Inclusion Analyzer delivers combined elemental concentrations and inclusion data in the same analysis, making control of inclusions possible in almost real time during steel manufacturing, in up to hundreds of steel production samples per day.

 For more than twenty years, our company has been a pioneer in the ultra-fast analysis of non-metallic micro-inclusions by spark OES. Thermo Scientific’s Spark-DAT inclusion analysis available today with the ARL iSpark 8860 Inclusion Analyzer builds on this long experience. The ARL iSpark 8860 Inclusion Analyzer comes as a comprehensive package including all the features needed for a thorough and rapid elemental analysis of steel combined with inclusion analysis.
