We will train you and your staff sample preparation, instrument operation and software use. We also provide complete training for ISI Calibration Development Software.

NIR Lab Services

The performance of the primary wet chemistry laboratory which the NIR calibrations are is critical to any NIR project success. We can assist you in selecting and evaluating outside laboratories for analytical accuracy and precision or evaluating the performance of internal laboratory services.

NIR Performance Evaluation

On going performance evaluation of an NIR system is critical to the long term success of the NIR project. We can provide performance evaluation data on a regular or periodic basis and make recommendations for improvement where needed. All data are provided in hard copy as well as electronic form.
