Compact and robust XRF benchtop instrument for fast, cost-effective, and non-destructive analysis, value determination, and authenticity testing of jewelry, coins, and precious metals.
The helmut fischer GOLDSCOPE® SD is a compact, robust XRF benchtop instrument designed for fast, cost-effective, and non-destructive analysis of jewelry, coins, and precious metals. It delivers accurate gold purity determination, alloy composition analysis, and authenticity testing — essential for jewelers, refiners, pawnbrokers, and quality control laboratories.
The helmut fischer GOLDSCOPE® SD is the definitive XRF solution for precious metals analysis, trusted by jewelers, refiners, pawnbrokers, and hallmarking laboratories worldwide. Its compact benchtop design houses a complete XRF measurement system — X-ray tube, silicon PIN detector, integrated sample chamber with camera, and WinFTM® software — in a small, robust instrument that fits on any workbench.
The non-destructive XRF measurement principle requires no sample preparation and leaves the jewelry, coin, or precious metal item completely intact. A standard gold analysis is completed in under 30 seconds, delivering accurate karat purity and full elemental composition including all common alloying elements — enabling precise value determination and alloy authentication.
The GOLDSCOPE® SD accurately identifies gold-plated items, gold-filled materials, and counterfeit precious metals — distinguishing between genuine gold alloys and base metal substitutes coated with thin gold layers. This authenticity testing capability is essential for protecting buyers and ensuring regulatory compliance in precious metals trade.
