One of the challenges instrument makers face today is an increasing need to bring new innovative products to the market faster and at lower cost. Spectrometers are an essential component in analytical instruments for a broad range of applications, for instance the life sciences, pharma, and process industries. Spectrometers are opto-mechanical modules that require specialized knowledge and equipment to design and manufacture. For many instrument companies it is not obvious which strategy – make or buy– they should choose ...

Spectrometers are an essential part of many analytical instruments. Selecting the right spectrometer for your specific application is, however, not a simple task.

Unfortunately, there is no such thing as a “one-size-fits-all” spectrometer. So, you have to select the best option based on the relative importance of size, cost, sensitivity, speed and a lot of other parameters. To help you in this selection process, we have collected a range of useful guides in this e-mail.
