자연 과학 | Cambridge Consultants

Our expertise in physics, chemistry and materials science underpins everything we do.

Fundamental principles

Our knowledge of the structure and properties of different materials is used extensively in a variety of applications, from remotely monitoring tons of mining slurry to working with security inks on a molecular scale.

In particular, our fluidics and microfluidics expertise is crucial to many projects, from dispensing the perfect pint of beer to shaping the precise characteristics of sprays, foams and emulsions of all kinds.

Key strengths

Micro-structural control in fluids

We understand the intricate behaviours of fluids and their interaction with physical surfaces, a vital factor in many of our beverage projects.

Structure-property relationships

Our knowledge of materials science ensures that all elements of a system’s design use the most appropriate materials.

Thermal properties

We’re particularly experienced in phase change materials and the handling of hot and cold fluids for beverage systems.

Tech, tools & facilities

Physical science labs

A range of wet and dry labs which allow us to perform a wide range of physical science research and development. Specific equipment includes wet and dry benches, fume hoods, malvern mastersizer particle analysis system and UV-VIS spectrometer.

Agilent GC-MS

Our Agilent Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectrometer enables detection and chemical analysis of a wide range of organic substances down to parts-per-million levels or below. This highly specialised piece of analytical equipment allows us to determine the make-up of a very wide range of organic materials in solid, liquid or vapour form and investigate flavour and aroma chemistry.

광학 연구실

캠브리지 컨설턴트의 광학 연구실에서는 개발 단계 이전에 시제품 디자인과 신규 테크닉을 테스트하며, 주로 사용되는 복잡한 고정밀 광학 레이아웃 구축이 가능합니다. 광학 연구실은 6개의 고사양(high-spec) 광학대(optical bench)와 고전력(4등급) 레이저 작업을 위해 용도 변경이 가능한 인터록 통제 영역, 그리고 간섭측정, 분광학, 저노이즈 형광 이미지화, 광자(光子) 계측을 위한 특수 시설을 갖추고 있습니다. 또한 별도의 레이저 통제 영역으로 분리되어 있어 다수의 실험을 동시에 실시할 수 있기 때문에 당사의 광학 엔지니어들은 측정 장비의 제약 없이 창의적인 솔루션을 개발할 수 있습니다.

Food & beverage lab

Specifically set up to meet the unique requirements of developing food- and beverage-safe systems, our dedicated lab means we have the necessary procedures and equipment in place to design and test new products in-house. Quantitative and scientific testing is fundamental to our science-led innovation approach, but ultimately taste tests are always needed. This is our only lab where the consumption of food and drink is not just allowed but essential!
