Sipi’s World Class Metals Lab Delivers Accurate Sampling, Technical Precision.
Sipi has decades of scientific knowledge and technical expertise in Fire Assay and myriad wet chemical analytical techniques for precious metals and brass analysis. Sipi’s sophisticated metals laboratory is one of just a few worldwide that is ISO/IEC 17025:2017 accredited for precious metals and gravimetric copper analysis.
Our lab’s cutting-edge technology includes ICP-OES instruments capable of detection down to part per million. These are used in conjunction with a wavelength dispersive x-ray fluorescent spectroscopy instrument (WDXRF) capable of analyzing precious metals and various brass alloys.
Sipi also uses a Spark-OES, that combined with the ICP-OES and WDXRF, is used to analyze the many ASTM and proprietary brass alloys that we manufacture.
Confidence is Built by Clean Data, Triple Checked.
Our in-house Laboratory Information Management System (LIMS) automatically captures the data from the instrumentation where we can manage the system. It also performs a check on the overall quality of the results, which typically come from samples run in duplicate or triplicate in order to confirm results.
