Welcome to the innovators in handheld XRF

Bruker AXS Handheld can trace its history back to the early 1980s and the US National Laboratory in Richland, Washington. It was there that a team of scientists from United Nuclear Inc and the US Department of Energy pioneered the early breakthroughs in portable X-ray fluorescence (XRF). That led to the formation of Scitec, the company that would later become Bruker AXS.

A lot has changed since those early days. A series of innovations has made handheld XRF technology an indispensable tool in fields as diverse as art conservation, scrap sorting, petrochemical industries and the NASA space exploration program. The S1 TURBOSD is the first portable alloy analyzer powered by the proprietary X-Flash® SDD detector for dramatically increased speed and accuracy of analysis. The Tracer is now established as the foremost handheld XRF instrument for art and conservation and related applications.
