Description

The basic Quantum Neo system provides a frame to which up to five measurement modules can be added as required. It takes seconds to configure and is equipped with a user interface that provides key information, a graphical representation of process capability and stores the data in a network-accessible ODBC Compliant database.

There are more than 20 module measurements available - please see individual datasheets for further information about Quantum Neo shelves.

Infeed Systems for the Quantum Neo
There are several sample-feeding systems available for the Quantum Neo. Each Quantum Neo has its own manual-fed hopper, where users can place samples to be tested. In addition to this, alternative automated-fed systems are available.
The Auto-sampling system is a flexible system that can automatically sample filter rods from up to 2 locations and transport these to a Quantum Neo docking station fitted with a receiver. The samples are then fed through the test station with no manual intervention required.

Another system is the Auto-hopper, which is a carousel system comprising 30 buckets, each can be pre-loaded with up to 25 samples. The carousel will then rotate and place the samples into the hopper for auto-feeding into the test station. A total of 750 samples can be tested in one single batch or as multi-bucket batches to allow a hands-free testing solution.

Datasheets are available for the Quantum Neo Test station, infeed systems and specific measurement shelves, these can be viewed or downloaded using the links below.
