ROCK MAGNETISM MEASUREMENTS
WITH TRADITION

For more than twenty years AGICO (Advanced Geoscience Instruments COmpany) brings you excellent laboratory instruments for measurement of magnetic properties of rocks and environmental samples. Its instrument making tradition goes back to the sixties when the first models of Kappabridge and Spinner Magnetometer were developed in the Geofyzika company in Brno.

AGICO Kappabridges (KLY and MFK series) have then gradually become worldwide standards for measurements of magnetic susceptibility of rocks, anisotropy of magnetic susceptibility (AMS), field, frequency, temperature variations of magnetic susceptibility, and, most recently, out-of-phase susceptibility. AGICO Kappabridges are the instruments of choice for a great number of paleomagnetic and rock magnetic laboratories worldwide for their outstanding sensitivity, ease of use and advanced software support.

AGICO Spinner Magnetometers (JR series) are probably the most sensitive and accurate commercially available instruments for measurement of remanent magnetization of rocks based on the classical (non-cryogenic) principles. They are favored for their sensitivity, very wide measuring range, compact dimensions, reliability, and acceptable price.

AGICO Alternating Field Demagnetizers (LDA series) are indispensable in any paleomagnetic or rock magnetic research especially when coupled with optional anhysteretic and/or low-field Pulse Magnetizers enabling to investigate, for example, Anisotropy of Magnetic Remanence, Viscous Magnetization.

AGICO innovates its instruments systematically through computerization and automation in order to increase measurement rapidity and comfort and, if possible, sensitivity and accuracy. To make data evaluation easier, AGICO specialists have developed several computer programs for advanced data processing supplied complimentary with the delivered instruments.


NEWS

  • Modified 3D rotator which enables to measure 20 mm cubes was released on April 2023. The corresponding version of SAFYR7 data acquisition software and its manual can be found here.

  • Please be informed, that AGICO changed its address and new location of the company is Purkynova 3050/99a, Brno, CZ-612 00

  • Please be informed, that the tabletop imPUlse MAgnetizer PUMA will be introduced soon. This instrument is designed for impulse magnetization of standard geomagnetic specimens with range of magnetic field intensities from 20 mT up to 5 T. Directional magnetizations in standard set of 18 magnetization directions will be possible.
