Sympatec wins Nano Award The 1^st prize of the photo competition "Nano im Bild" was awarded to Sympatec with its collage Nanu? Nano!. The prize was awarded on 7 November 2007 during the Nano Workshop 2007 in the auditorium of the Technical University of Clausthal-Zellerfeld, Germany. More ... Archived on 9 October 2008	WINDOX 5.4 released The new software for particle size and shape analysis, WINDOX 5.4, has been released. It can be validated and comes with the following major improvements: Image analyses may now contain up to 100,000,000 particles in 2GB of disk space. User and Database Administration can now be executed while users are connected to the database server. The database maintenance can now be made a scheduled task. Up to ten instances of the Data Visualisation Program may be run concurrently on the same computer. A WINDOX license can now be easily transferred from the software protection key to the computer and back. More ...

PICTIS combines the high speed image analysis of QICPIC with the gentle dispersion of the gravity disperser GRADIS in a singe robust instrument, covering a size range from 5 µm to 10,000 µm. The on-line image analyser PICTIS with vibratory feeder VIBRI/L-GMP MYTIS is using the well established laser diffraction in combination with the gravity disperser GRADIS, covering a size range from 0.5 to 3,500 µm in three measuring ranges. Both units are fed by a constant mass flow from the vibratory feeder VIBRI/L and are available for pharmaceutical applications as GMP (Good Manufacturing Practice) version as an option.

PICTOS On-line Image Analysis The unique combination of dry dispersion and high speed image analysis is now available for on-line applications in process environments. The on-line image analyser PICTOS with vibratory feeder VIBRI/L PICTOS combines the components of the high speed image analysing sensor QICPIC and the dry disperser RODOS in a rigid stainless steel housing. As with the on-line laser diffraction sensor MYTOS it can be connected directly to the representative sampler TWISTER or the vibratory feeder VIBRI. The current size range from 5 µm to 3.5 mm is covered by 3 measuring ranges. Communication and control over long distances is performed by a built-in 100MBit/1GBit TCP-IP network. The unit is operated by the WINDOX 5 software, which is fully compliant to CFR 21 Rule 11. More ... Archived on 28 February 2008
