ATC 2024 – Fundamentals of Quality Control Employing Optical Spectroscopy

ATC 2024Venue: April 15-19, 2024 Galveston Island Convention Center Presented by: Brian Rohrback, Ph.D., MBA, President, Infometrix, Inc.   Abstract: Obviously, to control quality in manufacturing, one needs to have some way of measuring the quality of the process and the product. Also critical is to optimize the action plan on how to process signal to gain the information content, to deliver the answers, and to facilitate maintenance. The field of optical spectroscopy has been critical to QC operations as a set of non-destructive technologies providing insight into the chemistry of the product. Spectrometers can deliver chemical information quickly and the on-going cost of ownership is relatively low. The quality of the information content will be a function of the analytical technology behind the instrument (NIR, Raman, UV-Vis) and analyzer calibration; the calibration task is the only one that falls to the end user on a routine basis. Maintaining best practices for spectroscopic calibration and identifying areas where the process can be streamlined is critical to preserve the value in the company’s investment in optical spectroscopy.
