trinamiX PAL One
– Portable NIR Spectrometer

tri­na­miX PAL One is a por­ta­ble near-infrared (NIR) spec­tro­me­ter for mate­ri­al iden­ti­fi­ca­ti­on, scree­ning work­flows, and on-site veri­fi­ca­ti­on tasks. The modu­lar plat­form com­bi­nes hand­held NIR mea­su­re­ment, appli­ca­ti­on-based work­flows, and cloud-sup­port­ed result manage­ment in one system.

The por­ta­ble NIR plat­form is used for pla­s­tics, tex­ti­les, pack­a­ging checks, QA work­flows, and sel­ec­ted indus­tri­al mate­ri­al veri­fi­ca­ti­on appli­ca­ti­ons whe­re rapid on-site scree­ning is required.

Portable NIR Spectrometer Platform with Modular Applications

The tri­na­miX PAL One hand­held NIR spec­tro­me­ter uses the same hard­ware plat­form for mul­ti­ple soft­ware-based appli­ca­ti­ons. Users can con­fi­gu­re the sys­tem accor­ding to their work­flow requi­re­ments and expand appli­ca­ti­on access through addi­tio­nal licenses.

How the trinamiX Measurement Workflow Works

The work­flow is desi­gned for prac­ti­cal use in recy­cling, qua­li­ty assu­rance, mate­ri­al veri­fi­ca­ti­on, and indus­tri­al scree­ning environments.

  1. Place the hand­held NIR spec­tro­me­ter direct­ly on the sample.
  2. Start the mea­su­re­ment in the sel­ec­ted tri­na­miX application.
  3. The mea­su­red spec­trum is pro­ces­sed within the appli­ca­ti­on workflow.
  4. The result is dis­play­ed and can be stored, expor­ted, or docu­men­ted in the cloud portal.

Portable NIR Applications

The tri­na­miX PAL One plat­form sup­ports modu­lar appli­ca­ti­on work­flows for

  • pla­s­tics,
  • tex­ti­les,
  • pack­a­ging checks,
  • QA pro­ces­ses, and
  • mate­ri­al veri­fi­ca­ti­on tasks.

Plastic Identification and
Plastic Scanner Applications

Pla­s­tic appli­ca­ti­ons sup­port iden­ti­fi­ca­ti­on of com­mon and tech­ni­cal polymers.

Depen­ding on the licen­sed appli­ca­ti­on modu­le, work­flows can include

  • stan­dard pla­s­tic identification,
  • exten­ded poly­mer identification,
  • PE/PP dif­fe­ren­tia­ti­on,
  • reflec­ti­vi­ty checks, and
  • appli­ca­ti­on-spe­ci­fic scree­ning tasks.

Textile and
Fabric Identification

Tex­ti­le appli­ca­ti­ons sup­port tex­ti­le and fiber iden­ti­fi­ca­ti­on work­flows including

  • blend ana­ly­sis,
  • PA6/PA66 dif­fe­ren­tia­ti­on,
  • wool sort­ing,
  • car­pet screening,
  • and sel­ec­ted tex­ti­le veri­fi­ca­ti­on processes.

Reflectivity Check and 
NIR Sortability

The Reflec­ti­vi­ty Check appli­ca­ti­on eva­lua­tes whe­ther pla­s­tic mate­ri­als are detec­ta­ble by NIR sort­ing systems.

This work­flow supports

  • pack­a­ging development,
  • opti­cal sort­ing eva­lua­ti­on, and
  • recy­cla­bi­li­ty-rela­ted screening.

Multi-Material Film
Screening

The Mul­ti-Mate­ri­al Film Check screens fle­xi­ble pack­a­ging films as

  • mono-mate­ri­al,
  • PE/PA with appro­xi­ma­te PA con­tent, or
  • mul­ti-mate­ri­al structures.

The work­flow is inten­ded for tech­ni­cal scree­ning and does not replace labo­ra­to­ry lay­er analysis.

QA and Material Verification
Workflows

Cor­re­la­ti­on-based com­pa­ri­son and work­flow inte­gra­ti­on can support

  • inco­ming goods checks,
  • batch com­pa­ri­son,
  • QA docu­men­ta­ti­on, and
  • defi­ned mate­ri­al veri­fi­ca­ti­on processes.

Typical trinamiX PAL One Configuration

The exact sys­tem con­fi­gu­ra­ti­on depends on the sel­ec­ted appli­ca­ti­on licen­ses and work­flow requi­re­ments. Typi­cal PAL One set­ups can include the hand­held NIR spec­tro­me­ter, soft­ware access, cloud por­tal inte­gra­ti­on, onboar­ding sup­port, and work­flow documentation.

  • tri­na­miX PAL One hand­held NIR spectrometer
  • Sel­ec­ted soft­ware appli­ca­ti­on licenses
  • Access to mobi­le or desk­top appli­ca­ti­on workflows
  • Cloud-based report­ing and result handling
  • Docu­men­ta­ti­on and onboar­ding support

Commercial Configuration and Availability

The PAL One plat­form can be con­fi­gu­red with dif­fe­rent appli­ca­ti­on licen­ses depen­ding on the inten­ded mate­ri­al work­flow. Some appli­ca­ti­ons are available as add-ons for exis­ting PAL One sys­tems, while others are sup­pli­ed as part of a con­fi­gu­red package.

Avai­la­bi­li­ty, licen­se dura­ti­on, deploy­ment struc­tu­re, and pri­cing depend on the sel­ec­ted appli­ca­ti­on com­bi­na­ti­on. For niche appli­ca­ti­ons and spe­cia­li­zed work­flows, a tech­ni­cal qua­li­fi­ca­ti­on or sam­ple scree­ning is recom­men­ded befo­re deployment.

FAQ

Can one trinamiX PAL One device run multiple applications?

Yes. The PAL One plat­form is modu­lar and sup­ports mul­ti­ple soft­ware appli­ca­ti­ons depen­ding on licen­sing and compatibility.

Can the portable NIR spectrometer be used for plastics and textiles?

Yes. The same hand­held NIR spec­tro­me­ter plat­form sup­ports both pla­s­tic and tex­ti­le appli­ca­ti­ons depen­ding on the acti­va­ted modules.

Should samples be tested before purchasing a configuration?

For stan­dard pla­s­tic and tex­ti­le iden­ti­fi­ca­ti­on work­flows, direct con­fi­gu­ra­ti­on may be suf­fi­ci­ent. For spe­cia­li­zed or niche work­flows, sam­ple test­ing is recom­men­ded befo­re purchase.

Does trinamiX PAL One replace laboratory analysis?

No. PAL One is desi­gned as a por­ta­ble NIR scree­ning and mate­ri­al iden­ti­fi­ca­ti­on plat­form. It sup­ports rapid ope­ra­tio­nal decis­i­ons but does not replace labo­ra­to­ry-gra­de characterization.
