Salford Magnetic Resonance have been involved in industrial applications of LR-NMR for more than 10 years and have considerable in-house experience of applications across a variety of industries including agro-foods, petrochemicals and textiles.

Projects we have undertaken include:

• Development of a major application for LR-NMR equipment in the processed food industry.



• Development of an agricultural application for LR-NMR equipment including ISO & US government validation of the method.



• Development of a major application in the textile industry for a new LR-NMR system.



• Assistance in developing a new ASTM standard in the petroleum industry for LR-NMR.



• Development of a major application for the chocolate industry in collaboration with a major chocolate manufacturer.

• Development of high sensitivity RF probes for LR-NMR.



• Development of a pulsed field gradient system for industrial LR-NMR.



• Development of an RF modulation system for LR-NMR.



• Project leading a development group to develop a new industrial LR-NMR instrument from scratch.

In addition we have a large amount of experience in diagnosing faults and resolving problems with industrial LR-NMR instruments both on site and remotely.

This is a question we are often asked, particularly when many manufacturers offer similar services. Here are a few reasons we think are relevant:

• The consultant works for you: at Salford Magnetic Resonance all we are selling you is our expertise, not a particular instrument. We represent our clients rather than a particular manufacturer
  
  
• The consultant is independent of any manufacturer: Salford Magnetic Resonance receives no sales commission from any instrument manufacturer. The advice we give is impartial & in the best interests of our client.
  
  
• The consultant is paid for the work that is done: Instrument manufacturers often offer to do work without payment on the promise of future sales. Such work often requires higher management approval & projects are limited to those that are likely to generate a large number of sales. In our experience this can often lead to delays & complicated commercial issues. At Salford Magnetic Resonance we look at each project individually & our aim is to provide a timely & cost effective solution to the clients issues. In addition, we can often look at small projects of limited interest to a manufacturer & produce solutions tailored to the specific needs of our clients.
