About Austenitemeter

Austenitemeter is a brand new portable device based on Mössbauer spectroscopy. It allows non-destructive and rapid determination of austenite or other iron-phases content in steel. This non-destructive measurement method enables austenite determination even for structures in use without their removing or cutting in just 20+ minutes. The thickness of the analyzed layer is up to approx. 10 µm, the most effective thickness is 5 µm.

In high precision mode it allows detailed phase analysis (iron-bearing phases).

„For the needs of industry we optimized the laboratory analytical tool. Our device will help engineers to accelerate their work by enhacing the precision of samples, structures, or machinery on location analysis.“

Jiří Pechoušek, Leading scientist
