who we are
AKTS SA (Advanced Kinetics and Technology Solutions) is based in Sierre, Valais (Switzerland). It is dedicated to bringing together the worlds of solid state kinetic analysis, thermogravimetry (TG), differential thermal analysis (DTA), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), thermomechanical analysis (TMA), evolved gas analysis (EGA, MS, FTIR) and thermal stability of materials. AKTS technology provides users with the required precision in an age where the use of high-performance materials is expanding, with a continuing infusion of new materials and applications. This situation is further enhanced by recycling efforts, and the growing use of thermal analysis for material quality control. AKTS provides access to information on thermal stability of materials for a multiplicity of users. We believe that this combining of solid state kinetic analysis and thermal stability of materials has a great future.
Our mission
Our mission is to increase the scope and productivity of science and engineering, accelerate the pace of discovery and development, facilitate learning, and amplify the creativity of research. We use an ultimate technical computing environment for visualization and simulation of material transformations, and the mathematics embodied within it, to provide reliable predictions of material transformations as a function of time and/or temperature.
Worldwide Services
AKTS designs its Software not only to provide valuable predictions of material decomposition but also to facilitate the processing and transfer of these data into customers’ management information systems. AKTS serves customers worldwide through its own service organization. Our online service provides the most comprehensive, innovative and reliable solutions. It gives a short response time because of our efficient service network. Our service performs the kinetic analysis and informs the user about the thermal stability of their materials. Each analysis we provide is delivered with the proven techniques and advances.
Expert solutions
AKTS technology is available worldwide. AKTS technology possesses an unparalleled capability of solid state kinetic analysis gained through the successful completion of many application developments over the last 30 years. With AKTS software, we provide the ultimate technical computing environment for customers’ visualization and prediction of material transformations. The AKTS’ strength lies in its proprietary technology, which provides users with an exceptionally high standard of numeric computation and precision. AKTS service plays a very important role in the identification of materials’ transformation and is very valuable in guiding screening and development decisions of candidate materials.

Software compliance
AKTS-Thermokinetics (TK), AKTS-Thermokinetics Sparse Data (TKsd), AKTS-Thermal Safety (TS) and AKTS Thermoanalytical Data Management (TAdm) software follow the security, data integrity, and audit trail requirements specified by FDA 21 CFR Part 11.
The security is managed with users and groups with each user being recognized using a username and password. Each group can have different access privileges. Clearly defining each user’s access privileges prevents unauthorized changes to settings and data access.
The Audit Trail records all operations performed, including logins and logouts to the system, changes in users and groups, together with the username and the time. The recorded operational log is registered in the database for traceability.
