trinamiX NIR Solutions
– Flexible Applications for Plastics and Textiles

tri­na­miX PAL One is a por­ta­ble near-infrared (NIR) spec­tro­me­ter used to iden­ti­fy pla­s­tic and tex­ti­le mate­ri­als based on their spec­tral fin­ger­print. It com­bi­nes robust hard­ware with advan­ced cloud-based ana­ly­sis to deli­ver mate­ri­al insights within seconds.

tri­na­miX offers fle­xi­ble NIR spec­tro­sco­py solu­ti­ons for pla­s­tics and tex­ti­les, enab­ling recy­clers, QA teams, and sus­taina­bi­li­ty pro­fes­sio­nals to iden­ti­fy mate­ri­als and assess qua­li­ty with unmat­ched speed and simplicity.

Workflow Overview

Here’s how the tri­na­miX solu­ti­on works in practice:

  1. Place the spec­tro­me­ter direct­ly on the sample
  2. Press the but­ton – NIR light is emit­ted and reflected
  3. The spec­trum is ana­ly­zed instant­ly via the app
  4. Results appear on screen and are saved to the cloud
Schematic workflow shows how trinamiX NIR material analyzer works. Measurement with NIR spectrometer. Smartphone displays result. Cloud archives data and provides analyzation and documentation functionality.

FAQ

What plastics can the trinamiX PAL One identify?

Depen­ding on the licen­sed app, the device can iden­ti­fy HDPE, LDPE, PP, PVC, PS, ABS, PLA, PET, PBT, PEI, and over 30 other com­mon and tech­ni­cal plastics.

Is the device suitable for quality control?

Yes. The Cor­re­la­ti­on App allows you to compa­re each sam­ple against a refe­rence using spec­tral simi­la­ri­ty (R/R²). This is ide­al for inco­ming goods inspec­tion and batch validation.

Can I use the device for textile applications too?

Yes. The same device sup­ports apps for tex­ti­le sort­ing, PA 6 vs PA 6.6 iden­ti­fi­ca­ti­on, wool sort­ing, and more. Learn more here.

Can I upgrade my configuration later?

Abso­lut­e­ly. All soft­ware appli­ca­ti­ons are modu­lar. You can add licen­ses for new appli­ca­ti­ons any­ti­me wit­hout chan­ging the hardware.
