Products and Solutions for Art Conservation

Analyzing ceramics, paintings, photos, glass, obsidians, bronzes, coppers and alloys?

Bruker offers dedicated analytical solutions for art conservators. The ARTAX mobile non-contact micro-XRF system offers in-situ analysis, fast and precise element mapping. The TRACER III-V handheld vacuum XRF multi-elemental analyzer is ideal for in-situ studies in the field, as well as in conservation laboratories. Bruker’s innovative infrared (FT-IR) and Raman microscopes offer optimal sample visualization and data collection.

Portable X-Ray Fluorescence (XRF)

Bruker AXS offers the ARTAX, the first commercially available, portable micro-XRF spectrometer designed to meet the requirements for a spectroscopic analysis of unique and valuable objects on site, e.g. in archeometry and art history.

Handheld X-ray Fluorescence (XRF)

Bruker AXS' TRACER™ handheld XRF system is ideal for elemental analysis in the field, or in your conservation laboratory.

FT-IR Microscopy

Bruker Optics' HYPERION™ series provides the most advanced FT-IR microscopy and chemical imaging capabilities.

Raman Microscopy

Bruker Optics SENTERRA dispersive Raman microscope combines the sensitivity of the dispersive Raman technology and the wavelength accuracy of the Fourier transform Raman spectroscopy.

ESI-Ion Trap Mass Spectrometry

High capacity ion trap (HCT) mass spectrometers for Liquid Chromatography / Mass Spectroscopy (LC/MS) art conservation and restoration studies.

Low Resolution Time Domain NMR

The minispec ProFiler is a low-cost NMR instrument that reduces the spatial restrictions of the sample size in conventional NMR experiments.
