Selecting a refractive index was an unavoidable part of using the laser diffraction method, in which a published value was generally entered. Same Conditions and Procedures.
However, such values were not necessarily appropriate, considering the effects of particle composition and shape. Therefore, tedious trial and Anyone can conduct high-quality measurements anywhere at any time.
error processes were used to select refractive indices. With the SALD-MS23, SALD-BC23, and SALD-DS5S, automatic measurement by PC control can be conducted according to a specified SOP.
WingSALD II solves such problems by being the world's first software to include a function that automatically calculates an appropriate refractive The operator's work consists of sample preprocessing and inputting only.

Various functions and operations of SALD-2300 can be controlled by a PC, enabling SOPs to be used more effectively.
In addition, administrators and operators can be assigned different operating privileges to ensure security.
