ParticleTrack with FBRM Technology

Real-Time Particle Size and Count Analysis

ParticleTrack™ with FBRM® (Focused Beam Reflectance Measurement) technology is inserted directly into processes to measure particle count and size in real time at full process concentrations. Scientists can continuously monitor droplets, particles, and particle structure, as experimental conditions vary, providing the confirmation required to deliver consistent particles with the required attributes. The probe-based ParticleTrack instrument utilizes FBRM technology, the industry standard for in-situ process measurements.

Focused Beam Reflectance Measurement (FBRM)

ParticleTrack particle size analyzers utilize FBRM, the industry-standard measurement technique used for in-process particle measurement. The precise and sensitive chord length distributions (CLD) are highly responsive to changes in size, shape, or count. Real-time analysis allows researchers to observe how process changes impact particles directly.

Accelerate Particle Process Development

Other particle characterization techniques rely on offline sample collection and manual preparation which introduces time delays and sampling errors, complicating process development.

By inserting a ParticleTrack probe directly into a reactor or process stream, scientists can continuously monitor particle size and count trends in-situ, providing immediate process understanding. Equipped with this knowledge, scientists can confidently improve processes faster.

Link Process to Particle Performance

Product quality and downstream processing performance are directly impacted by the parameters used to produce crystals, particles, and droplets. ParticleTrack allows scientists to directly link these parameters to particle mechanisms. By understanding the impact of process parameters have on particle mechanisms, such as nucleation, growth, agglomeration, breakage, and shape change, scientists can avoid process risks and produce better particles, faster. 

By characterizing the effect of process parameters during development, scale-up, and production, scientists deliver high-quality particle products to the market faster and at a lower total cost using evidence-based methods.

What is FBRM? How does it work?

FBRM™ (Focused Beam Reflectance Measurement) is a measurement technique used for in-process particle measurement. The precise and sensitive chord length distributions (CLD) are highly responsive to changes in size, shape, or count. 

The probe is placed at an angle straight into process streams to allow particles to flow freely across the probe window where the measurement takes place. Through a system of optics, a laser beam is sent down the probe tube and narrowly focused on the sapphire window. The optics rotate at a constant rate (usually 2 m/s), which causes the beam spot to sweep through particles quickly as they pass by the window.

Individual particles or particle structures will backscatter the laser light to the detector when the concentrated beam travels through the particle system. These separate backscattered light pulses are identified, counted, and the distance across each particle is determined by multiplying the duration of each pulse by the scan speed.

The chord length, a crucial indicator of the particle's relationship to particle size, is used to determine this distance. Thousands of particles are typically counted and measured per second, enabling the real-time reporting of an accurate and very sensitive chord length distribution.

The chord length distribution charts the evolution of particle size and counts from the start to the finish of a procedure. It is possible to chart the evolution of statistics from each chord length distribution, such as counts in the fine and coarse size classes.
