The fully-automated control of aluminum smelting and processing has been held back by the challenge of real-time elemental analysis of the metal in its liquid state.

DTE solves this problem.

OUR TECHNOLOGY

Our flagship EA-2000 is a first-in-industry fully automated elemental analyzer, generating real-time data, direct from liquid metal. Operating at key locations within the casthouse, the EA-2000 delivers immediate, reference quality trace impurity information.

RAPID PAYBACK

FROM FULL AUTOMATION

​​

• Automation eliminates the need for manual sampling, increasing quality and reducing process lag time

​

• In situ analysis of homogeneous liquid metal offers greater accuracy than possible with solid sampling

OPTIMISE PROCESS

WITH REAL-TIME DATA

​

• In-line analysis enabling real-time control
   

• From sampling to read-out in less than 60 seconds for enhanced process control and decision support 

ENHANCE WORKER SAFETY

AND IMPROVE ACCURACY

​​

• Reduce operator risk of exposure to liquid metal during sampling - almost one fifth of injuries are burns caused by contact with hot molten metal

​

• ~70% of errors to arise from the manual nature of sampling today, which instrument accuracy cannot correct for

MEET DTE

With its headquarters in Iceland, DTE is focused on next-generation industrial metal production process control, towards Industry 4.0. 

We address the high unmet need to complement and replace current slow, expensive and manual methods for process and quality control with real-time, in-line analysis of trace materials.

Our team combines decades of engineering experience and process expertise in the aluminum industry.
