Main Optical Components

Galaxy Advantages PermAlign TM FT Technology FT-NIR technology offers significant advantages over other types of NIR including: High spectral resolution High signal-to-noise ratio High & inherently stable wavelength accuracy Full spectral range In addition, all models in the QuasIR product line utilize Galaxy’s PermAlign TM Fourier Transform Technology. PermAlign TM technology takes FT-NIR to the next level by offering incredibly high performance in a small portable design. Permanent Interferometer Alignment Small & Lightweight Design Robust Field Operation Patented Permanently Aligned Interferometer Block

Galaxy Advantages PermAlign TM FT Technology Interferometer in a traditional FT instrument uses a flat mirror , which is sensitive to vibration and mechanical error Source of Scan Error Moving mirror mechanism mechanical error Vibration can cause tilt and shear of moving mirror

Galaxy Advantages PermAlign TM FT Technology Commonly Used Method to Solve Scan Error : use Cube-Corner mirror instead of flat mirror Cube-corner moving mirror is immune to tilt But it can not correct the error caused by shear The shearing caused by vibration and mechanical error can result in errors when beams are recombined at the beam-splitter.

Galaxy Advantages PermAlign TM FT Technology Our interferometer design: Add a flat mirror in front of cube-corner mirror Immune to tilt and shear Insensitive to vibration Never needs alignment

Interferometer Flexure based drive Highly uniaxial motion Frictionless “Infinite” life Quartz interferometer block Permanently aligned Insensitive to temperature

Thermal Management Create thermal pathways inside instrument to move heat to desired location, where it can be dissipated Source heatsink Main Heatsink – designed for passive cooling

Thermal Management Reduce power consumption Low power (5W) source, 20,000 hr MTBF Solid state laser. Low power consumption Very long life

Thermal Management Effectiveness of thermal design tested over wide temperature range Operating temperature range 0°C - 40°C

Method Development & Transfer Services Galaxy Scientific offers both method development and transfer services. We can help you to build new calibration models and to transfer existing calibration models from your old equipment to a new QuasIR TM system.

Spectral Compatibility with a FT-NIR S pectrometer from a different FT-NIR V endor Original spectrum of a tablet: Measured with Galaxy QuasIR 2000 Measured with Bruker Matrix-F

Spectral Compatibility with Bruker 1 st derivative spectrum of the previous spectra Measured with Galaxy QuasIR 2000 Measured with Bruker Matrix-F

Direct Calibration 1 : A Joint Study with a Customer Using a Bruker Ident Model Collect spectra of the same tablet on 3 Bruker Matrix-F systems (Bruker 1-3) and 4 QuasIR 2000 systems (New 1-4), then use established original Bruker Idnet model to do qualitative analysis. All passed the test and further more, the hit qualities of QuasIR spectra are even smaller than that of Bruker spectra.

Direct Calibration 1 : A Joint Study with a Customer Using a Bruker PLS Model Average predicted value of spectra measured on Bruker Matrix-F is 64.3% with STD of 0.36%. Ave predicted value of spectra measured on QuasIR is 64. 5 % with STD of 0.34% The PLS model used was an established PLS model developed with spectra measured with Matrix-F several years ago. There is no outlier detected and the RMSEP of the model is 2.26%.

Direct Calibration 2: A Joint Study with a Customer Using a Bruker PLS Model Sample used: 4 Poly(ethylene-co-vinyl acetate) samples with approximate vinyl acetate concentrations at 12%, 18%, 25% and 40% were used in this study. Instrument used: Samples were measured with 4 Bruker Matrix-I, 9 Galaxy Scientific QuasIR 3000 and 1 Bruker Vector 22N-I I sphere channel equipped with rotating cup on each instrument Resolution of 4cm -1 Quant Model used: Customer developed Poly (ethylene-co-vinyl acetate) calibration with spectra collected on tens of Bruker Matrix-I was used to directly predict vinyl acetate (VA%) concentrations of spectra obtained in this study using multiple instruments as mentioned above. Method root mean square error of cross validation (RMSECV) is 0.44% while root mean square error of prediction (RMSEP) is 0.4%. Each sample was measured 3 times on each instrument, the average predicted values of each sample with each type of instrument along with other statistic values were listed in the following slide.

Advanced-Identification Package Often manufacturers are interested in ingredients, adulterants, or contaminants present at concentrations too low for standard NIR approaches. Advanced-Identification is a patent-pending targeted screening software tool that allows quick screening and semi-quantitative results for concentrations as low as 0.01%. Advanced-Identification extends the use of NIR to further reduce supply chain risk and protect your brand integrity.
