This permits a wide range of personnel, with varying levels of skill and knowledge, to quickly and accurately use the Watson for all types of applications that can use hand-held XRF technology. The software supports configuring the XRF instrument and performs automatic internal calibration without the need for a trained technician or carrying around bulky calibration discs.<\/p>\n<p>\n\tIt takes advantage of the latest in smartphone design and software, and costs $10,000. An intuitive interface means that it&#8217;s easy for anyone to use without any special training. Watson is Wi-Fi enabled for automatic software updates, and comes with integrated market pricing, keeping users current on all local alloy market prices.<\/p>\n<p>\n\t<a href=\"http:\/\/www.tribogenics.com\/\" style=\"font-family: Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 0.9375em; line-height: 1.33333em;\">www.tribogenics.com<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\n\t&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Tribogenics, Los Angeles, Calif., introduces the Watson XRF analyzer, in which the company says conventional glass X-ray tubes are replaced with an X-Change cartridge system that makes changing cartridges &#8220;as easy as changing the ink in an inkjet printer.&#8221;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":63082,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[444,446,439,454,440,441,1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-8907","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-aerospace-and-defense","category-automobiles-and-ground-transportation","category-general","category-metals-and-alloys","category-news","category-news-articles","category-uncategorized"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.9 -
