ViefhausAnalytik: Precision Material Analysis – On-Site or Mobile

Since 2011, as a spin-off from the University of Stuttgart (Institute of Mineralogy and Crystal Chemistry, Prof. Dr. Massonne), ViefhausAnalytik TGU has specialized in customized Raman microspectroscopy solutions for industrial and research clients.

We deliver high-precision, non-destructive material analysis — directly at your facility or in our lab — combining advanced instrumentation, in-house software, and deep analytical expertise.

Our commitment: Technologically advanced. Scientifically rigorous. Tailored to your challenge.

 

Our Services & Capabilities

We go beyond standard lab analysis. Our solutions are designed for complex, real-world problems in industry and research.

  • 🔬 Micro-Raman Spectroscopy
    High-resolution surface analysis with 3D sample positioning – down to micrometer scale.

  • 🚚 Mobile Raman System
    On-site analysis with our self-developed, portable spectrometer – ideal for quality control, failure analysis, and cultural heritage.

  • 💾 Custom Data Evaluation & Database Software
    Fast, reliable material identification using our in-house software (PowerBASIC, Python) and relational SQLite databases.

  • 🏗️ Turnkey Solutions
    We design, build, and implement complete Raman systems tailored to your specific needs.

  • 🎓 Workshops & Training
    Hands-on seminars on Raman and IR spectroscopy – from fundamentals to advanced applications.

 

🔬 Core Application Fields

We support innovation and quality assurance across diverse sectors:

  • Automotive Industry & Composites
    Coating analysis (e.g., Eloxal), polymer identification, failure mode analysis (FMEA).

  • Energy, Geology & Corrosion
    Fuel cell materials, fly ash, corrosion products, mineral analysis (e.g., Gypsum/Anhydrite ratio in tunnel drilling).

  • Bio-Medical applications
    Implant materials, biocompatibility studies, detection of biocides and degradation products.

  • Conservation and Restoration
    Non-destructive analysis of pigments, corrosion layers, and historical materials (e.g., in the EU project SensMat, Horizon 2020, Grant Agreement No 814596).

➡️ Your Benefit: You receive reliable, data-driven insights that improve product development, quality control, and research outcomes — with full documentation and traceability.

💻 Software Solutions for Materials Analysis

We develop custom software tools to ensure efficient, accurate evaluation of complex spectral data.

Our core platform is built in PowerBASIC Win10.x — a high-performance language with native Windows API integration. It is proven to be fast, stable, and fully functional in offline environments.

Complementary tools are developed in Python, with SQLite as a lightweight local database for secure, rapid material identification.

Our software services include:

  • Modular evaluation tools for Raman, IR, and XRD spectra

  • Development and maintenance of local databases for fast substance matching

  • User-friendly interfaces for data acquisition, filtering, and visualization

  • Automation of routine workflows and instrument control (USB/RS232)

  • Offline-capable systems for sensitive or restricted environments

All software is developed in close collaboration with clients — from concept to final implementation.
