Abstract: Various systems and methods of analyzing one or more properties of a sample are provided. The system includes a self-contained purging device having a sample holder and one or more analyzers for analyzing one or more properties of the sample. The purging device is configured to remove sample contained within the sample holder when an analysis is complete. In one embodiment the purging device is configured via an air pump having a tube in fluid communication with an air inlet of the sample holder, wherein the air pump is configured to deliver pressurized air to the air inlet and thereby purge the sample. The pressurized air is localized ambient air, and substantially free of contaminants. Methods and other systems are also described and illustrated.

Abstract: An example embodiment may include a hyperspectral analyzation subassembly configured to obtain information for a sample. The hyperspectral analyzation subassembly may include one or more transmitters configured to generate electromagnetic radiation electromagnetically coupled to the sample, one or more sensors configured to detect electromagnetic radiation electromagnetically coupled to the sample, and an electromagnetically transmissive window. At least one of the sensors may be configured to detect electromagnetic radiation from the sample via the window. The hyperspectral analyzation subassembly may include an analyzation actuation subassembly configured to actuate at least a portion of the hyperspectral analyzation subassembly in one or more directions of movement with respect to the sample.
