Advantages
- Intuitive user interface for quick operation in forensic contexts
- Compact and ergonomic design, ideal for laboratory environments with limited space
- Easy installation with no structural modifications required to the workstation
- Advanced detection of microscopic residues and substances on documents, surfaces, and objects related to a crime scene
- High analytical sensitivity enabling precise identification of even the smallest traces
The foram®3 operates using an advanced process that enables the detection of chemical residues or invisible traces on documents or objects without altering them. The surface to be analysed is placed on a dedicated platform, then a transparent polymer film is applied over it. The system subsequently exposes the surface to an electrostatic charge, thereby capturing residues or invisible traces.
The analysis detects differences in conductivity or chemical composition, highlighting traces left by substances or modifications. This information is then analysed and processed to provide a clear image of the invisible elements, which is essential for forensic investigations.
