A high-performance handheld X‑ray fluorescence (XRF) analyzer featuring a silicon drift detector (SDD), the Spectro xSORT AlloyPlus enables ultra-fast, on‑site metal alloy identification and verification—ideal for applications like scrap sorting, quality control, and positive material identification (PMI). It delivers lab-quality precision in just 2 seconds for most alloys, extending to approximately 7 seconds for light-element–containing materials such as aluminum, magnesium, silicon, phosphorus, and sulfur. Built for rugged environments, it supports continuous drift calibration via its automatic iCAL system, and includes intuitive ergonomic design, fatigue-minimizing features, and advanced data connectivity (WLAN, USB, Bluetooth)—making it an unmatched tool for demanding industrial workflows
