SYNC – Laser Diffraction and Image Analysis Combined

Published over 3 years ago. See the latest and most current information on Laboratory products.

Microtrac's SYNC is a hybrid particle analyser, which combines the advantages of laser diffraction and image analysis in a unique way: both analyses take place in the same measuring cell and results can be based on either method or a combination of both.

The patented BLEND routine allows users to examine materials over a wide size range from 0.01 to 4000 microns.

Advantages of the SYNC include:

  • Particle size and shape analysis from 0.01 to 4000 microns using laser diffraction (ISO 13320:2020) and dynamic image analysis (ISO 13322-2)
  • Excellent sub-micron detection using blue laser technology. Ability to resolve narrow and multi-modal distributions in the sub-micron range
  • Detection of small amounts of oversized or undersized fractions in the particle size distribution
  • Patented synchronous measurement technology and BLEND distribution analysis. One measurement run in the analyzer yields particle size distribution and over 30 morphological parameters
  • Fast measurement time – typically 30 seconds
  • Fast and easy switch between wet and dry measurement modules. Change from wet to dry mode in less than 15 seconds
  • Full IQ / OQ validation package compliant with FDA 21 CFR Part 11 guidelines
