Manufacturing & Processing Learning Center
From oil and gas, chemicals and plastics to minerals, mining and metals, industrial producers face increasing pressure to improve quality, increase productivity and cost-effectively comply with strict regulatory requirements. Our technologies, including a new generation of rugged field-based instruments, let high-value industrial producers like you improve outdated and outmoded processes and expose quality defects that can erode existing market share or prevent expansion into new markets and profitable application areas.

Visit our new Steel Manufacturing Information center to learn about technologies used to produce clean and ultraclean steel with improved mechanical properties. Browse our resources for information about applications in raw material quality control, process optimization, laboratory analysis, contaminated scrap metal detection, and air quality monitoring in the steel manufacturing process.

Our newly updated Cement Analysis and Production Information center is a comprehensive resource about the cement production process and the steps needed to maintain consistent raw material quality with minimal chemistry deviation.
