Particle Analysis in 60 Seconds — Mobile Monitoring

From extraction to actionable results in 60 seconds

What is Particle Analysis?

Particle analysis is the process of extracting, identifying, and quantifying particulate contamination on component surfaces. In technical cleanliness, this means determining the number, size, and type of particles present—information that directly impacts component function and reliability. Traditional methods require sending samples to external laboratories, with results taking 24–72 hours. PartikelART changes this equation entirely.

The PartikelART Method: 3 Steps in 60 Seconds

1

Extract

Use Trace Pads to collect particles from surfaces or ambient air. Available in multiple sizes for different particle dimensions.

2

Analyze

Place the Trace Pad on the Lightbox and scan with the LensApp. Advanced image recognition identifies and classifies particles automatically.

3

Act

Receive results instantly: particle count, size distribution, and cleanliness code. Escalate, document, or release—directly from your smartphone.

Real-Time vs. Laboratory Analysis

The difference between real-time and laboratory analysis is not just speed—it's the ability to close the control loop. When contamination is detected in real time, production can be stopped before hundreds of defective parts are manufactured. With external lab analysis, the feedback delay means problems compound undetected.

Frequently Asked Questions

How fast is PartikelART particle detection?

PartikelART performs particle detection in just 60 seconds - directly on-site, with no laboratory shipping required. Results include particle count, size distribution, and cleanliness code.

Is PartikelART particle analysis compliant with VDA 19.1 and ISO 16232?

Yes. PartikelART particle analysis is fully compliant with VDA 19.1 and ISO 16232, producing digitized end-to-end documentation that meets QM audit requirements.

What is the difference between real-time particle detection and laboratory analysis?

Real-time particle detection with PartikelART closes the control loop instantly - contamination is detected before defective parts are produced. Laboratory analysis has a 24-72 hour feedback delay.
