LUMiReader® X-Ray 440 — Particle Sizing Beyond Optical Limits

See Where Light Can’t...

Adaptive Instruments is excited to introduce the LUMiReader® X-Ray 440, a next-generation dispersion analyser and particle sizing system that reveals the invisible.
Using monochromatic X-ray transmission and STEP-Technology®, it measures whole-sample particle and droplet size distributions — even in opaque, highly concentrated, or dark systems where optical methods fail.

Key Application Areas

This instrument is especially well-suited for:

  • Opaque emulsions or suspensions that block visible or NIR light

  • High-solid slurries, pigment dispersions, battery pastes, mining sludges

  • Formulation development, shelf-life & stability testing, process monitoring

  • Any system where sedimentation, creaming, consolidation or phase separation need high resolution insight

What This Means For You

With the LUMiReader® X-Ray you can:

  • Optimise formulations earlier by measuring performance under real-world conditions

  • Improve product shelf-life confidence by quantifying separation and consolidation kinetics

  • Reduce time to decision by replacing trial-and-error optical workarounds with X-ray backed, high-resolution data

  • Gain a competitive edge by understanding “what cannot be seen” — but now can
