FabriTell for QC & Lab Testing

Screen in a second.
Send to the lab only when it matters.

FabriTell isn't a replacement for full lab analysis, it's a non-destructive pre-screen that tells you, instantly, which samples actually need it. Cut your lab queue down to the cases that genuinely require certified testing.

The Problem

Traditional testing
is slow and destructive.

Burn tests and chemical dissolution destroy the sample

Classic composition tests consume the material being tested, fine for a small swatch, wasteful when you need to screen many samples or preserve the item.

Full lab analysis takes days, not seconds

Sending a sample out for certified composition testing means waiting on a lab queue, too slow when you need a quick go/no-go decision.

Every sample costs the same, whether it needs it or not

Lab fees are typically charged per sample, so testing everything that comes through QC, including the obvious cases, adds unnecessary cost.

No quick way to triage volume

When QC needs to check dozens or hundreds of items, there's no fast first-pass filter to separate "clearly fine" from "needs a closer look."

The Solution

A fast, non-destructive
first pass.

Non-destructive NIR scanning

FabriTell reads composition with near-infrared light, the sample is untouched and can still be tested further or kept intact afterward.

Result in under a second

Get a composition reading immediately, on the spot, without waiting for a lab slot.

Triage before you spend on certified testing

Use FabriTell to screen every sample first, and reserve costly certified lab analysis for the genuinely borderline or high-stakes cases.

Logged results for your QC records

Every scan is timestamped in Matoha Cloud, giving you a documented first-pass result alongside any subsequent certified lab report.

FAQ

Common Questions

Why choose a subscription over a one-off purchase? +
A subscription spreads the cost into predictable monthly payments, includes software updates, and can be easier to justify as an operating expense rather than a capital purchase. A one-off purchase gives you full ownership with no ongoing fees. Both options include access to the Matoha app and Cloud dashboard. Compare options →
How long is the contract for subscriptions? +
Subscription terms vary by plan. Please contact us for current contract lengths and flexible options — we can often accommodate rolling monthly or annual arrangements depending on your needs.
What is the cancellation policy? +
One-off purchases come with a 21-day money-back guarantee — if the device doesn't work for your materials, return it for a full refund. For subscription plans, cancellation terms are outlined in your agreement. Get in touch if you have any questions.
How long does delivery take? +
FabriTell, PlasTell and CarpeTell handheld devices ship within approximately 60 days of order. The S-Bench system has a longer lead time due to custom configuration — contact us for current availability. We ship worldwide.
Can I try before I buy? +
Yes — we offer a live demonstration where we scan samples you send in advance, so you can see results on your own materials before committing. All devices also come with a 21-day money-back guarantee. Book a demo →
Do the devices work without an internet connection? +
Yes — all Matoha devices identify materials fully offline. The AI runs on-board, not in the cloud. Wi-Fi is only used for syncing scan data to Matoha Cloud and receiving firmware updates, both of which are optional.
