According to our (Global Info Research) latest study, the global Micro-XRF Analyzer market size was valued at US$ 120 million in 2024 and is forecast to a readjusted size of USD 169 million by 2031 with a CAGR of 5.1% during review period.
Micro X-ray fluorescence is an elemental analysis technique which allows for the examination of very small sample areas. Like conventional XRF instrumentation, Micro X-ray Fluorescence uses direct X-ray excitation to induce characteristic X-ray fluorescence emission from the sample for elemental analysis. Unlike conventional XRF, which has a typical spatial resolution ranging in diameter from several hundred micrometers up to several millimeters, Micro X-ray fluorescence uses X-ray optics to restrict the excitation beam size or focus the excitation beam to a small spot on the sample surface so that small features on the sample can be analyzed. Micro X-ray fluorescence spectrometry is the method of choice for the elemental analysis of non-homogeneous or irregularly shaped samples as well as small objects or even inclusions.
Global key players of Micro-XRF Analyzer include AMETEK, HORIBA, Bruker, etc. The top three players hold a share about 73%. Asia-Pacific is the largest market, and has a share about 36%, followed by North America and Europe with share 33% and 22%, separately. In terms of product type, Benchtop Micro-XRF Analyzer is the largest segment, occupied for a share of 89%. In terms of application, Materials Science has a share about 40 percent.
