NO CALIBRATION REQUIRED – EVER
MARQMETRIX RAMAN FACTORY CALIBRATION
Every MarqMetrix All-In-One Process Raman System leaves our Seattle, WA facility factory calibrated, ensuring continuous and precise process Raman analysis. Since March 2019, we have been conducting a calibration study on an All-In-One spectrometer to demonstrate the stability and performance of our Raman instruments without recalibration.
RESULTS
The MarqMetrix All-In-One spectrometer has been stable and accurate within ±0.1cm-1 (±1.5%) 5x better than reported ASTM reference accuracy without recalibration as of 09/06/23. MarqMetrix will continue to update this page with calibration study results.
RAMAN SPECTRAL DATA
- 2,340 Raman spectra overlay over a 53-month study to illustrate stability in calibration
ACCURACY OVER 53-MONTHS
- Calibration accuracy is ±0.1cm-1, 5x lower than ASTM reference accuracy
HOW ARE WE MEASURING HARDWARE STABILITY?
MarqMetrix has been conducting a long-term calibration study on a single All-In-One device since March 2019. Nine Raman peak positions of cyclohexane are being monitored throughout this experiment to prove long-term wavelength calibration stability. MarqMetrix is using the American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM) Calibration Standard as a comparison.

WHY IS CALIBRATION STABILITY IMPORTANT?
Calibration stability and reproducibility between Raman instruments enable the use of global models. This capability reduces your total cost of ownership and allows you to scale quickly by simplifying the initial implementation and ongoing operation. At MarqMetrix, our mission is to make Raman accessible to all, and calibration stability plays an integral role by eliminating the need for costly scientists to assure and maintain the system.
The MarqMetrix All-In-One Process Raman system has proven to be stable within plus or minus 1.5% for 4 years with zero recalibration. The only time this machine was calibrated was when it was built in the MarqMetrix production facility.

ALL-IN-ONE FACTORY CALIBRATION BENEFITS
ZERO DOWNTIME
Raman systems that require recalibration cannot continue to take measurements while they are being recalibrated. Precious time and data is wasted while recalibrating traditional Raman devices. With a MarqMetrix All-In-One Process Raman System, you never have to waste time recalibrating your Raman equipment. Our systems are designed to run continuously. As this calibration study proves, they can operate for more than 4 years (and running) without needing calibration or maintenance.
LOWER COSTS
Traditional Raman systems often necessitate expert personnel, extensive training, or other costly equipment to keep them running smoothly. The MarqMetrix All-In-One Process Raman system doesn’t require weekly, monthly or even yearly recalibration. With the All-In-One, your scientists can focus on science not hardware maintenance. MarqMetrix products allow you to focus resources on your business, not device maintenance.
