The Bruker G4 Icarus is a high-precision combustion analyzer designed for simultaneous determination of carbon and sulfur contents in inorganic materials using high-temperature combustion and infrared detection. This system is particularly suitable for additive manufacturing (AM) research, offering accurate quantification of total carbon and sulfur in feedstock powders (e.g., steels, nickel alloys, titanium), printed parts, and recycled materials. Trace levels can be detected down to sub-ppm, enabling the monitoring of contamination or unwanted residue that may affect mechanical properties or processing behavior in AM. 

The ICARUS system features a powerful high-frequency induction furnace capable of reaching >2000?°C, ensuring complete combustion of samples. The integrated vacuum-free dust management system reduce maintenance and enhance operational stability, even during continuous high-throughput usage.
