MECHANISED & AUTOMATED SAMPLE
PREPARATION SYSTEMS
SMART GEO-PREP
When using Smart Geo-Prep the operator chooses an
optimum weight for the split that will be produced. For
example, when using a ring or puck mill, there is an optimum
amount for pulverising, not too high a weight so the sample
is pulverised fully, not too small a weight so the pulverised
sample is representative of the original material.
The operator weighs each sample (this can be recorded in a
LIM System) and loads it into the Boyd Crusher. The sample
material falls into a small belt conveyor that takes it to the
RSD.
The speed of the belt is controlled by a PLC so that small
samples travel slowly, to ensure a high quality split through the
RSD. The RSD is controlled by the PLC to provide the pre-set
weigh plus the remainder.
MECHANISED SYSTEM
A Mechanised System is a combination of two or more
machines and devices so that a process of sample preparation
can be carried out without any operator action.
§
Two or more machines combined to form a mechanised
system for the preparation of the samples.
§
Operator handling is minimized, even for very large
samples.
§
Ideal for labs or mills processing up to 350 samples per
day.
AUTOMATED SYSTEM
Automated Systems are based on the concept of a sample
flowing through a process, not a series of batch events. The
concept has been developed over the last fifteen years. Many
new machines and devices have been invented by ROCKLABS
Ltd to facilitate this concept.
The overall aim is simplicity of design and construction to
minimise construction costs and running costs and enable the
system to be operated by existing laboratory technicians and
maintained by existing plant fitters.

MATERIALS
The analytical laboratory is a vital part of all industrial plants and research establishments. The
techniques employed therein have developed rapidly in recent years, but the fundamentals upon
which many of these techniques are based have remained constant. The majority demand the use of
high-purity inert materials. In this category platinum (Pt) has properties that make it an ideal choice. It
has a high degree of chemical inertness and yet can be readily fabricated into a wide variety of
articles. These, in turn, are used in a wide range of applications:
Wet Chemistry:
Eg. ISO 9502:1993
Metallurgical-grade fluorspar - Determination of silica content - Reduced-molybdosilicate
spectrometric method.
Loss related analyses:
Eg. AS 3572.3-2002
Plastics - Glass filament reinforced plastics (GRP) - Methods of test Determination of loss on ignition of glass filament reinforced plastics.
Lithium borate fusions for XRF, AAS, ICP-AES or ICP-MS analysis:
Eg. ISO 9516:1992
Iron ores - Determination of silicon, calcium, manganese, aluminium, titanium, magnesium,
phosphorus, sulphur and potassium - Wavelength dispersive X-ray fluorescence spectrometric
method.
Metals used for laboratory apparatus must have the following
properties:
§
§
§
§
§
High temperature strength
High melting point
Ductility
Corrosion resistance
Oxidation resistance
Platinum and its alloys possess these qualities and is therefore the
most widely used metal for analytical laboratory apparatus.

CUPELLATION FURNACES
30, 40 & 50 places Cupellation
These silicon carbide muffle chamber furnaces provide the ideal
furnaces conditions for gold cupellation work and many other
processes where indirect heating and controlled airflow are
required. The heat energy is provided by high power silicon carbide
elements located in an outer chamber. The excellent thermal
conductivity of the silicon carbide muffle provides a working
chamber with almost no temperature variations. Heated by the
silicon carbide heating elements, these furnaces provide for high
throughputs with their rapid heating and recovery. Controlled
airflow passing through the chamber is pre-heated allowing full use
of the available hearth area.
When necessary, silicon carbide heating elements may be easily
replaced, even while hot.
For the highest throughputs, with the lowest overall operating costs
for its type, the floor-standing, model SC50Cup provides ideal
chamber conditions combined with a power supply that maintains
constant cupellation conditions and automatically adjusts to get the
best possible element life.

TGA application
The windows software allows easy instrument
operation. Integration with Microsoft Office, results
are stored in Microsoft Access Data base
automatically, data can be exported automatically
and manually in TXT and CSV formats to
Microsoft Excel or several Laboratory Information
Management Systems (LIMS).
Multiple analyses such as moisture, volatile
content, ash, LOI determination – up to 8
analysed slopes per program.
Configurable parameters for all slopes up to 8
sets of settings: Final temperatures, plateau
deviations, Hold times, gases, ramp rates etc…
Open data base connectivity
The software provides a powerful ODBC data
base which allows filter that data and sort the
rows and columns to export to several
spreadsheets like Microsoft Excel, Corel Quattro
Pro or Lotus 123. All the analysis are archived in a
Microsoft Access file (.MDB extension) which can
be opened also with Microsoft Access. The data
base does not use propietary formats, all the data
is stored in standard formats and are accessible
from many programs in the market.
Easy to use diagnostics
The diagnostics allows to activate manually all the
mechanical functions of the instrument and to
check the operation of the magnetic sensors as
well as the balance and the furnace temperature
controller. The weight present in the balance as
well as the temperature and the sensors are
shown on the screen in real time as they are
changing. i.e. If there is a problem with the
stability of the balance the weight does no get the
“g”. If the user presses the “Enter Sample” button
on the instrument it is reflected in this window.

1. Metallic upper carousel cuttings to absorb
expansions and contractions due to heat
2. Lower carousel
3. Crucible cover
4. Crucible with sample inside
5. Balance pedestral
6. 4 decimal places digital precision balance with
display
7. Elevation axis for upper carousel (automatic
crucible-covers placement and removal)
8. Elevation axis for both carousels
9. Pulley for carousel rotation
Metals properties
The carousels are made of refractory stainless steel alloy. The carousels do not bend nor warp under
temperature stress, metal is unbreakeable unlike ceramics. Ceramics charges with static electricity
and may produce unstable balance readings. Metals do not charge with static electricity. Our TGA
carousel design have transversal cuttings to absorb expansion and contraction. No deformation,
unbreakeable, durable.
Standardized components
TGA Instruments contain complete brand name balances and temperature controllers from recognized
manufacturers. The balance has display for easy service. The temperature controller has 2 displays: 1
for the set point and other for the present temperature. The balance as well as the temperature
controller are programmable using the buttons in the devices. These devices are manufactured by the
experts in the business. All the electric and pneumatic parts in the TGA can be acquired in the market:
Magnetic switches, relays, pneumatic valves, pistons, fans etc… With no dependency on Navas
Instruments.
All the sensors are magnetic not affected by dust. Very few propietary electronics (Only 2 boards), that fits
inside 2 slots of the PC. Access FOR SERVICE from back, sides, front and underneath.

MODELS OF TGA AVAILABLE
TGA-1000
Single carousel configuration
Thermo- gravimetric Analyzer (Basic) – Single carousel configuration
Electrical: 110 or 240 VAC 50/60 Hz ; 4kW (Single-phase)
Dimensions: 700mm(L) x 550mm(D) x 650mm(H)
TGA-2000
Dual Carousel configuration
Thermo-gravimetric Analyzer (Auto covers) - Dual Carousel
configuration
The dual carousel configuration allows automatic installation and
removal of crucible-covers inside the furnace. : This prevents sample
oxidizing and provides better volatile matter accuracy in addition to
automation, (It works unattended). No danger to operator opening
furnace at 600 ºC. No danger of falling covers inside furnace.
Reduced analysis time in coal as the TGA does not go down from
900-950 ºC to 600ºC to remove covers.
TGA-3000
Productivity & Performance Center (Patent Pending)
Thermo-gravimetric Analyzer (More runs / day) - Additional external
balance for increased throughput.
Same as TGA-1000 with additional external balance to obtain initial
weights of crucibles, samples and covers outside furnace during
furnace operation. The TGA-3000 allows using 1 single PC to
manage at the same time the external balance and the instrument.
THIS CONFIGURATION ALLOWS 20-200 % MORE RUNS/DAY
THAN OTHER TGA WITH MINIMAL BENCH SPACE
REQUIREMENTS.
