Calibration and Data Analytics
Scantech analysers deliver significant operational advantages by providing real-time data on the quality of conveyed materials. Essential for daily reporting, process control, or bulk sorting, the accuracy and reliability of our analyser data are paramount.
Each Scantech analyser is uniquely calibrated to match the specific material it analyses, the site it’s installed at, and the intended use of its data. Our specialised team of highly trained Calibrators, under our Product Support Agreements, tailor, monitor, and maintain these calibrations. Assigning a dedicated Calibrator to each analyser fosters an in-depth understanding of each customer’s needs, ensuring optimal integration into their operations.
As part of Scantech’s Technology & Innovation group, the Calibration and Data Analytics team is committed to enhancing the data quality and utility our analysers provide. By refining our calibration tools, advancing our data analytics methods, and expanding the range of analysable elements, we’re dedicated to maximising the value our customers gain from our technology.

"When commodity prices were strong and rising, mining companies could afford minor inefficiencies in their plants. That is rarely the case in these days of lower-grade deposits, lower metal prices and economic pressure from every direction. “We have to do better with lower costs,” said Philip Thwaites, manager of process control for XPS Consulting & Testwork Services. “If you’re not efficient, you’re not going to be around. And our industry can be a lot more efficient.” According to Thwaites, measurement is the cornerstone of control and efficiency. “If you have a poor measurement, or no measurement, you can’t do good control,” he explained. But this is changing. More and more mining companies are conscious of improved measurements and endorsing control, automation and next-generation technologies. What is more, there has been significant progress in automated instruments recently. These measure crucial parameters in the processing circuit and equipment to allow operators to monitor and adjust process control as needed."
