Process Monitoring

MATRIX-F II FT-NIR Process Spectrometer

The MATRIX-F II FT-NIR Process Spectrometer by Bruker is designed for continuous, real-time monitoring in demanding industrial processes. It brings laboratory-level FT-NIR accuracy directly to the production floor, even in harsh operating conditions. Built for in-line and on-line analysis, the system uses advanced fiber-optic technology to perform direct or contactless measurements inside reactors, pipelines, and conveyor systems.

This spectrometer enables fast, non-destructive analysis of process parameters without interrupting production. By providing immediate insights into material composition and process behavior, it helps manufacturers improve consistency, reduce waste, and maintain tighter control over quality. Nexus Analyticals is a trusted MATRIX-F II FT-NIR Process Spectrometer distributor and service provider in India, offering complete support from selection to deployment.

The MATRIX-F II is widely used for monitoring chemical reactions, blending operations, and material uniformity across multiple industries, helping minimize reprocessing and off-spec production.
