Latest Image Processing Technology Shows Dramatic Improvement For Melting Point Determination

12 May 2005

Applications requiring a quick, accurate and cost effective means of melting point and temperature range determination need the latest in Image Processing Technology from Stanford Research.

OptiMelt can determine the temperature range, onset, single and clear points for chemical substances at up to 400ºC with high precision. Novel imaging technology provides a dramatic improvement over its nearest competitors.

Previous technology relied on optical absorption or reflection techniques which in some instances gave inaccurate results that were difficult to re-produce.

OptiMelt's built-in digital camera continuously captures real-time images of the samples and uses digital image processing techniques to determine phase transitions.

The instrument is very easy to operate, with start temperature, end temperature and ramp rates selected from the large touch-screen LCD front panel display.

Designed for stand-alone un-attended operation within the manufacturing, R&D or educational sector; 3 samples can be analysed simultaneously. A magnified viewing window and PC software interface is supplied as standard. High-resolution images of the melt can be stored and played back for further in-depth analysis of the melt. A compact printer is also available.

OptiMelt is easily calibrated in the field against certified reference standards, complies with modern Pharmacopeia protocols and meets modern GLP requirements.
