A domestic knowledge-based company has developed a Fourier-transform spectrometer with wide applications in numerous industries.
Fourier-transform spectrometer is an important tool for measuring radiation, absorption and reflection spectra in nanometers and mastering material analysis, especially in the field of nanotechnology. It is also used for the calibration of the spectral power of infrared sources.
The spectrometer produced by Ozhen Advanced Spectroscopy Equipment Company (also known as Ozhen-Optics Brand) is one of the most advanced types for measuring spectral power, the news portal of Iran Nanotechnology Innovation Council reported.
The Fourier-transform spectrometer facilitates the analysis of spectrum and intensity of extra-cavity single-mode lasers, lamps and interference modes. Unlike conventional optical systems, the spectrometer uses interferometric principles and boasts a spectral resolution of less than 0.4 nanometers. It is able to perform spectrometry in the visible to the mid-infrared spectral range with high resolution.
Spectral power calibration of infrared sources, measurement of single-mode extra-cavity laser intensity, qualitative measurement of moisture in soil and leafs, assessment of food quality and measurement of moisture and freshness of edibles are among the advantages of this knowledge-based device.
The domestic spectrometer is available in three models: OSA917, OSA926 and OSA1045, with a spectral range of 900 to 4,500 nanometers.
The spectrometer uses a Michelson interferometer that creates a high spectral resolution with the ability of moving the driving mirror by a few centimeters. In these models, a range of helium-neon lasers have been used for high spectral resolution and a stable isothermal diode laser with a wavelength of 630 nanometers has been used for applications that do not require high spectral resolution.
Ozhen Advanced Spectroscopy Equipment Company, which supplies laboratory equipment, has produced the spectrometer.
The knowledge-based company interacts with domestic researchers and professors and employs top professional and graduates in the fields of optics, photonics and lasers. It has a large share of the domestic laboratory and industrial markets.
Laserjet Printer Cost Competitive
A knowledge-based company has produced a laserjet printer with higher accuracy and durability.
A laserjet printer is used to print various specifications on documents and packaging materials of different sizes with high quality, according to the CEO of the Aryan Behrang Siyah Qalam Company.
“Inkjet printers use ink, but laserjet printers use light beams,” Asadollah Golestani was also quoted as saying by the news portal of the Vice Presidency for Science and Technology.
“By concentrating light at one point, the intensity of the beam increases and information is engraved on the product by using this concentrated beam,” he said.
“Laserjet printers usually do not use consumables such as cartridges and print by burning a thin layer on the surface of the product with the help of lasers. And this reduces cost and produces higher quality prints.”
He emphasized that the inkjet printer raises a lot of dirt around the product, but the laserjet printer does not have this problem.
The company’s CEO stressed that since laserjet printers have higher accuracy, they print data with minimal errors and because of its durability, its additional costs are very low.
“The ability to print a variety of shapes, logos and prints is one of the positive features of the domestic device. It can print on plastic, glass, tile, ceramic, stone, natural and artificial leather and various wooden surfaces,” he said.
Priced one-eighth lower than its foreign counterparts, the Iranian device is exported to Iraq, the UAE, Turkey, Tajikistan and Georgia. Golestani noted that the production of this device has created nearly 60 direct jobs.
Domestic Smart Water Meter Developed
A knowledge-based company has designed a water meter with very high accuracy and more features to replace traditional mechanical meters.
“Ultrasonic smart water meter replaces traditional mechanical meters with very high accuracy,” Abolfazl Jan Fada, CEO of Be Saaz-e-Energy Knowledge-Based Company said while emphasizing that this meter was produced with ultrasonic measurement technology.
In construction units where the sanitary hot water return pipe is installed inside the unit, a water meter should be installed on the inlet pipe and also on the outlet pipe of the unit and by comparing the amount of incoming and outgoing water and measuring the difference, the amount of sanitary hot water that is consumed will be calculated.
Using this product, it is possible to measure the consumption of hot and cold sanitary water in different parts of the building to separate the water bill of the building units, measure the thermal energy consumption of the hot water in different parts of the building to separate the gas bill of the units and measure consumption flow to monitor consumption in the industrial sector, the news portal of Vice-Presidency for Science and Technology reported.
This product measures fluid velocity, instantaneous flow rate, volumetric flow rate, the direction of water fluid movement, meter operation time and water temperature.
The lifespan of this meter is 2-3 times that of traditional mechanical meters and due to the very small measurement error, it lets the customer pay the real water bill. It also provides remote monitoring.
The water condition in Iran and the Middle East region is very critical, with this product, the water flow can be turned off for consumers who do not follow the consumption pattern or refuse to pay the bill for water consumption.
This product can compete with European similar models and has a lower price compared with similar models.
The software and hardware designs of this product are completely done in this company and direct employment has been created for 20 people.
Moreover, one of the best methods for dividing and separating energy costs and bills is to use the energy meter system, another product of this company, that has the task to calculate the exact consumption of water, cooling and heating systems in different units in a building.
