Products Overview & International Sales Representatives
The precious metal testing set - ATS 1000 is a non-destructive and user friendly authenticity analysis system for fine gold bars and gold coins of common sizes and weights from 5 g to 1000 g. Even the analysis of bars and coins made of silver, platinum or palladium is possible with this innovative precious metals testing set.

The ATS 1000 utilizes a combined measurement of density (specific gravity) and ultrasonic speed in metallic materials in order to evaluate the authenticity of fine gold bars and coins. Both methods are based on a thorough volume inspection of the tested precious metal objects and not only on the analysis of a thin surface layer. There is no need any more to send precious metals objects to any assayer or precious metals refiner for authenticity testing. With the testing set ATS 1000, within 5 minutes, you can check for yourself without any doubts the fineness and homogeneity of your precious metal objects or find out possible fakes. Traditional and commonly used X-ray fluorescence analysis instruments (XRFA) for that purpose can not detect e.g. hidden precious metal imitates beyond an outer layer thickness of about 10 to 20 micron.
Since 2009 an increasing number of counterfeited gold bars with weights of 250 g, 500 g and 1000 g - mainly originating from Asia - have been spotted on the international precious metal markets. Usually, such fake bars may contain a tungsten core, one or several tungsten rods, or have been produced simply from silver bars which have been gold plated. Even bullion trading banks have been affected by the purchasing of fake gold bars already. Austrian and German precious metals refiners have recently found such gold bars with tungsten cores. But even fake palladium bars with substituted cores have been detected since that time.
For the precious metals investor the ATS 1000 makes an end to doubts about possible fake bars and coins in his precious metals portfolio. For the precious metals dealer this testing set offers the possibility to check the genuineness of precious metal bars and coins for purchase or sales within a few minutes. All imitates can be easily detected and excluded from dealing. The pricing of the testing set is very favorable in relation to the purchase price of a single counterfeited gold or platinum bar.
