Leco Instrumements UK Ltd
About us
LECO Instruments UK Ltd helps laboratories turn demanding analytical challenges into reliable results. Our portfolio spans elemental analysis, thermal analysis, mass spectrometry and complete metallographic solutions, supported by applications expertise, training and local service.
ELEMENTAL ANALYSIS
Determine carbon, hydrogen, nitrogen, oxygen and sulfur in organic and inorganic materials using combustion and inert gas fusion techniques. Applications include nitrogen/protein determination in food and feed, carbon and sulfur in metals and fuels, and oxygen, nitrogen and hydrogen in advanced materials.
THERMAL ANALYSIS
Measure moisture, ash, volatile content and loss on ignition using thermogravimetric analysis, with calorimetry solutions for determining calorific value. Support quality control and material characterisation across fuels, food, environmental and industrial samples.
GLOW DISCHARGE OPTICAL EMISSION SPECTROMETRY
Explore bulk elemental composition and compositional depth profiling for metals, alloys, coatings and surface treatments.
MASS SPECTROMETRY AND SEPARATION SCIENCE
Discover Pegasus time-of-flight mass spectrometry, GC-TOFMS and comprehensive two-dimensional gas chromatography (GCxGC), supported by ChromaTOF software for data processing, deconvolution, compound identification and quantitative analysis. Applications include food safety, flavour and aroma, environmental analysis, petrochemicals and metabolomics.
METALLOGRAPHY, HARDNESS TESTING AND MICROSCOPY
Prepare, examine and characterise materials with sectioning machines, mounting presses, grinding and polishing systems, hardness testers, metallographic microscopes and image analysis software. LECO offers solutions across the workflow, from sample preparation to final evaluation.
CONSUMABLES, TRAINING AND SUPPORT
Keep your laboratory working efficiently with LECO consumables, reagents, crucibles, calibration standards and wear parts, alongside instrument training, applications support and service. Our UK team supports customers across the UK and Ireland.
