FT-IR MICROSCOPY LUMOS II Exceptional IR. Brilliant Visuals. Ultrafast Imaging. Innovation with Integrity

The LUMOS Vision For more than 15 years, the LUMOS has been the innovation leader in applied IR microscopy, redefining the concept of a modern, routine system and what users expect of it. At its launch in 2012, we focused on making ATR microscopy better and easier than ever before by building an industry defining integrated, automated ATR objective. Since 2020, the LUMOS is also shifting the paradigms of IR imaging. First by adding an FPA detector and then, in 2024, by introducing IR QCL technology to the platform. But most importantly, we never lost sight of the LUMOS vision: creating a micro-analytical...

The Potential of IR Imaging A single spec of dust on a PCB board, a small inclusion on a treated surface, or some oily residue on a plastic part – not all samples require IR imaging - but they still benefit from it. Just think about it. IR Imaging could detect, if the small dust particle is in fact a complex agglomerate, or, if the small surface residue is actually altering the sample's chemistry. In general, IR imaging delivers a comprehensive picture of your samples and accelerates failure analysis, troubleshooting and material research.

Electronics Failure Analysis Pharmaceuticals Quality Control All types of (in)organic materials are used in the production of electronic products. IR spectroscopy is a universal technique that yields valuable chemical information for most samples. Therefore, IR microscopy is of great help in failure and root cause analysis. The LUMOS II is fully compliant with cGMP, GLP and all pharmaceutical regulations such as 21 CFR part 11. Automated test routines (OQ/PQ) give you time to focus on the analysis of tablets, granules and powders, improving your search for particles, contaminations or the evaluation...

Technical Cleanliness Root Cause Analysis Life-Science Tissue Analysis IR spectroscopy and microscopy are great tools to uncover the origin of contaminations like particles or organci residues. One of its greatest advantages is the fast error detection and quick determination of the root cause. Analysis by IR microscopy also provides important insights into biology. It enables the discovery of specific disease patterns, dysfunctional tissue or even new disease-related biomarkers. With its fast imaging performance and large field of view, the LUMOS II simplifies the tedious work of tissue analysis....
