Specialist manufacturer of
high quality components for
critical industrial applications,
Wulfrun, has employed the
latest analytical technology to
guarantee the metallic
composition of the products it
provides. A portable XRF
analyser from Ashtead
Technology is used to quickly
check the quality of raw
materials, work in progress
and final products, in order to
meet the tight specifications
required by the market sectors
for which quality is critical.

Wulfrun’s Bastien Wacogne
says: “An in-house XRF
analyser is employed for
routine quality control
purposes, but some of our
contracts necessitate a higher
level of analysis, so we
sometimes hire the latest XRF
instruments from Ashtead,
which ensures that we have
access to the most advanced
technology without the capital
cost of ownership; a good
example would be the ability
to test Titanium Grade 5 for
all light metals including
aluminium.”
