Labotec recently hosted a workshop entitled “Latest Sample Preparation Technology” at their head offices in Midrand. Guest speaker, Dagmar Klein of Fritsch in Germany presented this very successful workshop. The objective was to show analysts how to get rapid, reproducible results every time samples are prepared.
The delegates were invited to bring their own samples, which were prepared on the Fritsch mills at the workshop. Dagmar Klein also covered theory on sample preparation and device-related implementation. The interaction, practical demonstrations and discussion of each of the results was of great value to the participants, who each had the chance to introduce their company, and their special application.
Most of the delegates attending were from the food and feed industry; however the sample preparation equipment from Fritsch is also just as suitable and can be used with great efficiency in the mining, pharmaceutical and plastic industy. This range covers size reduction and sample processing, particle sizing and analysis, and sample dividing and feeding and particle size analysis.
