SIGMA PRO GOLD PACKAGE
Our instrument-based testing package prices have been optimized for on-site examinations at the customer’s premises. Transporting and setting up professional analytical instruments requires special care and attention.
The SIGMA instrument is suitable for testing investment and historical coins dating from the 1800s onward, as well as bars and ingots with a minimum precious-metal purity of 90%.
The XRF instrument analyzes the elemental composition of the surface of precious-metal items and determines the percentage of the detected elements. It can also be used to examine jewelry and other PM objects. For on-site testing, access to a standard 230 V mains power supply is required.
Upon request, we can also provide a 50 g jewelry-, a 2000 g precision scale, a pinger tester, a digital caliper, and 40× (25 mm) and 20× (21 mm) jeweler’s loupes.
