About

Applying components of highest performance our modular particle size and shape analyser QICPIC develops the full power of dynamic image analysis. High speed image analysis using a pulsed light source with illumination times in the nanosecond range the particles are optically frozen while a high-resolution, high-speed camera captures the razor-sharp particle projections with a frequency of up to 500 frames per second.

With powerful algorithms, QICPIC is evaluating millions of particles in shortest time and guarantees outstanding statistically relevant results. Numerous implementations in pharmaceutical and chemical industry, powder metallurgy, food and beverage technology or soil science just denote the array of applications in industry and research.

Properties
  • Particle size and shape analysis from 0.55 µm to 33,792 µm.
  • Adaptable to the application / product due to the modular instrument set-up.
  • Efficient dispersion instead of software-based particle elimination or correction.
  • Quasi-static image analysis in a high speed particle flow.
  • Clear outline of particles, independent of the position in the measuring zone.
  • Definite borders of particles, black outline, even for transparent particles.
  • Very low statistical errors due to very high particle numbers.
  • User defined class limits out of 100,000 primary size classes, free definition of sampling points,
  • pre-defined set of size classes are shipped with the software (e.g. HELOS classes, sieve classes, etc.)
  • A large number of evaluation modes are available,
  • evaluation modes are selectable even after the measurement:
  • particle size: basing on equivalent sphere, equivalent perimeter, enclosing rectangle, minimum, maximum, and average Feret diameter.
  • particle shape: sphericity, aspect ratio, convexity.
  • fibre evaluation: fibre length, volume based fibre diameter, straightness, elongation even of complex structures.
  • particle gallery: displays and prints a user defined selection of particles along with definable characteristic data
  • user specific evaluation: performs the evaluation of particle size and shape only on particles matching user defined filter conditions.
  • QICPIC/R fulfils the security requirements of the FDA and is compliant to 21 CFR Rule 11 and ISO 13322-1, 2
