Newma Analytics Showcase | Newma Analytics at the 2024 Annual Meeting of the Chinese Ceramic Society Glass Fiber Division

From 22nd to 24th September 2024, the highly anticipated 2024 Annual Conference of the Glass Fibre Branch of the Chinese Society for Silicate Materials and the 44th Annual Meeting of the National Glass Fibre Professional Information Network were grandly held in Nanjing. The event, themed “Sixty Years Together, Striving Forward Towards a New Journey,” attracted nearly 600 experts and representatives across the fibre and composite materials industry. Attendees engaged in in-depth discussions on cutting-edge inorganic fibre and composite materials technologies, digital transformation, intelligent manufacturing, application development, green low-carbon initiatives, and testing and evaluation.

Niumag Analysis Co., Ltd., a leading provider in low-field nuclear magnetic resonance (LF-NMR) technology, was honoured to participate in this prominent industry event. During the conference, Ms. Liu Hanyi, Vice General Manager and Board Secretary, delivered a keynote speech titled “Innovative Applications of Low-Field NMR Technology in Quality Control of Glass Fibre, Carbon Fibre, and Their Composites.” She shared Niumag’s latest research and practical experience, highlighting LF-NMR’s unique advantages in rapid, non-destructive, and highly sensitive analysis for material characterisation, performance evaluation, and production optimisation in glass fibre, carbon fibre, and composite manufacturing.

In her presentation, Ms. Liu recommended two products: the Composite Resin Content Analyzer PQ001-GU and the Automated Online Glass Fibre Oil Content Measurement System – Glass Fibre Analyzer PQ001-Gla. Both instruments can quickly and non-destructively measure glass fibre oil content, replacing traditional manual or muffle furnace methods, significantly improving testing efficiency and data reproducibility. She also introduced Niumag’s latest detection technologies for glass fibre oil content, carbon fibre sizing, resin content in glass fibre composites, resin content in carbon fibre prepregs, and resin content in carbon fibre composites, alongside automated solutions. These innovations showcase Niumag’s latest LF-NMR applications and their role in enhancing quality control throughout glass fibre, carbon fibre, and composite production.

These technologies not only improve testing efficiency and reduce labour costs but also significantly lower carbon emissions, providing strong support for sustainable development in the glass fibre and composites industry.

Recommended Equipment

Composite Resin Content Analyzer PQ001-GU

The Composite Resin Content Analyzer integrates T1 and T2 relaxation time testing with magnetic resonance imaging. Combined with an online sample temperature control module and FLAT technology for capturing short-relaxation weak signals, it offers versatile solutions for non-destructive, rapid analysis of solutions, gels, solids, and particles. It is particularly suitable for process monitoring, production optimisation, formulation research, and ageing or curing evaluations in online experimental studies.

Automated Online Glass Fibre Oil Content Measurement System – Glass Fibre Analyzer PQ001-Gla

This world-first high-throughput automated system integrates sample pre-treatment and testing processes, ensuring operational safety, stability, and reliability. It significantly improves testing efficiency, reduces labour costs, and lowers carbon emissions.

The system rapidly and accurately measures and analyses a variety of chemical and physical properties in polymer industries. It supports samples in multiple forms, including powders, granules, solutions, and gels, offering a comprehensive workflow control solution.

Key technical specifications of the system include:

High Throughput: Up to 200 samples loaded at once (customisable), measuring over 800 samples daily, providing real-time accurate results.

Efficiency: Average measurement cycle of one minute per sample.

Moisture Measurement Module: Accurate moisture determination via microwave drying and weight comparison.

Fully Digital Workflow: Automated sampling, pre-treatment, transfer, analysis, quality control, and reporting; API dashboard integration available.

Cost Reduction and Efficiency Gains: Real-time product metrics, minimising defective outputs.

User-Friendly: Intelligent operation without requiring NMR expertise.

The premium system frame provides stable support and protection, preventing operational risks and ensuring consistent testing results while optimising the working environment.

Additionally, Niumag demonstrated its independently developed LF-NMR instruments at the conference. These instruments break the monopoly of imported equipment and are widely applied in energy and geotechnical engineering, oilfield services, food and agriculture, life sciences, materials science, NMR education, and the textile industry. They have received multiple national awards and certifications and are recognised as a National “Little Giant” Enterprise in the specialised and innovative sector. Niumag continues to innovate in NMR technology and educational outreach, promoting industry development and a healthy ecosystem.
