Rigaku collaborates with Loft to bring handheld spectroscopy to the next level

Services: Industrial Design, Mechanical Engineering

Leveraging Rigaku’s past core engineering work, Loft designed the KT-500 to be elegant, yet with best-in-class ruggedness. KT-500 features a durable magnesium housing, active cooling, and a replaceable boot. The intuitive onboard UX connects via USB & WiFi for simple viewing and download to any PC or mobile device. Loft worked closely with Rigaku to create design files, an engineering database, marketing materials, and DFM cycles with the manufacturer. The result of the collaboration was a professional product with a portable, rugged and user-centric experience.
