Sigma Metalytics PRO and Bridge vs XRF
Test through your gold & silver — no drilling, no acids
The Sigma Metalytics PMV PRO probes right through bars up to 45 mm (with External Bridge) and exposes tungsten cores that surface X-ray testers miss.1 2
See the testers ↓Surface microns vs full-bar millimetres
| Method | Depth reached | Can it miss tungsten? |
|---|---|---|
| Hand-held XRF | ≈ 10–20 µm3 | Yes — thick plating or a tungsten slug beneath the surface can pass4 5 |
| PMV PRO + External Bridge | Up to 45 mm through-bar2 | Engineered to flag high-density inserts |
“XRF sees µm; PMV PRO sees mm — nowhere for gold-plated tungsten to hide.”
How PMV PRO verifies precious metals
- Surface coil measures resistivity of the top layer.
- Thru-coil signal passes completely through the bar to an under-sensor, confirming core integrity.6
- Algorithm flags any reading outside the green zone for Au / Ag / Pt / Pd.
- Optional Refiners Wand & External Bridge let you scan everything from thin sovereigns to 400 oz bricks.

FAQs
Can’t I just scan multiple spots with XRF?
Even multi-spot XRF still reads only ~20 µm deep; a centred tungsten slug stays hidden.4 5
Does the PMV PRO emit radiation?
No. It uses low-power electromagnetic coils — no licence required.6
What’s the thickest bar I can test?
12.5 mm with onboard sensors; up to 45 mm with the External Bridge.1 2
