Metal Testing Equipment Rental, Leasing and Financing
Need an instrument for a shutdown, a short project, or while yours is in for service? Rent one. Building the capital case for a permanent addition? Lease or finance it. Verichek does both, and every rental includes delivery, installation, and certification training for up to two operators.
Rent, Lease, or Buy: Which Option Fits Your Situation?
| Your situation | What fits | Typical term |
|---|---|---|
| Your instrument is in for repair and testing cannot stop | Rental | Short to mid-term |
| Shutdown, turnaround, or a one-off project | Rental | Short to mid-term |
| Evaluating a technology before you commit to it | Rental or rent-to-own | Short to mid-term |
| Adding permanent capability while preserving working capital | Lease or finance | 12 to 60 months |
| Replacing an instrument you already own | Finance plus trade-in | 24 to 60 months |
XRF, LIBS and OES Instruments Available for Rent
Verichek provides in-house and on-site metal analysis testing, and some customers can run the testing themselves but need the equipment. For those situations, we rent handheld and benchtop instruments across four technologies.
Handheld XRF Analyzer Rental
A handheld XRF analyzer suits on-the-go inspection and incoming material checks. Rental units combine the Fundamental Parameters method with empirical calibrations traceable to certified reference materials, and the nose design allows analysis inside bends and corners. See our full range of X-ray fluorescence analyzers.
Handheld LIBS Analyzer Rental
A handheld LIBS analyzer is a point-and-shoot instrument with a one-second test time and an 8-to-10-hour battery. It identifies aluminum, magnesium, titanium, cobalt, chromium, nickel and copper alloys, along with stainless steels, tool steels and low-alloy steels. See our LIBS analyzers.
Mobile OES Analyzer Rental
Mobile OES gives you low detection limits across a wide range of elements in rugged conditions. It is the common rental choice for scrap element analysis, incoming material inspection, and foundry quality assurance where a benchtop instrument cannot go.
Lab OES Analyzer Rental
Laboratory OES provides the lowest detection limits and the best consistency of any instrument in the fleet, along with the widest spectral range. It covers nearly all elements, including nitrogen and carbon in steel. See our optical emission spectrometers.
What’s Included with Every Verichek Rental
- Delivery and installation
- Initial certification training for up to two operators
- 24/7 phone, web and email support
- UV probe upgrade options
Annual training is required for recertification of all first-time users. A Verichek rental arrives installed, with your operators certified to run it.
Renting While Your Instrument Is in for Repair
If your spectrometer is down and production cannot wait, a rental can bridge the repair window. Verichek repairs and calibrates OES, XRF, LIBS and hardness instruments in an ANAB-accredited ISO/IEC 17025 laboratory, which means the same team handling your repair can arrange the bridge instrument. Talk to us about your repair timeline before you arrange a rental elsewhere.

Rental, Leasing and Financing FAQs
What types of equipment can be leased or financed?
We offer leasing and financing for all metal analysis equipment we distribute, including Optical Emission Spectrometers, XRF analyzers, hardness testers, and LIBS instruments from brands like Hitachi, GNR, OBLF, and more.
What are the typical lease terms available?
Lease terms typically range from 12 to 60 months, depending on the equipment value and your business needs. We work with you to find the most advantageous structure for your situation.
Is there a minimum equipment value required for financing?
We can arrange financing for equipment purchases starting at $10,000. For smaller purchases, please contact us to discuss available options.
Can I include installation and training in the lease?
Yes. Installation, training, extended warranties, and even consumables can be bundled into your lease or finance agreement, giving you a single predictable payment.
What happens at the end of the lease term?
At the end of your lease, you typically have the option to purchase the equipment at fair market value, return it, or upgrade to newer technology with a new lease agreement.
How quickly can I get approved?
Most applications receive a credit decision within 24–48 hours. Once approved, we can often have your equipment delivered and installed within weeks.
Can I rent instead of leasing or financing?
Yes. Verichek rents handheld XRF, handheld LIBS, mobile OES and lab OES instruments on short to mid-term terms. A rental suits a defined gap such as a shutdown, a one-off project, or a repair window. Leasing and financing suit an instrument you intend to keep.
Can I rent an instrument while mine is being repaired?
Yes. Verichek repairs and calibrates OES, XRF, LIBS and hardness instruments in-house, so the team managing your repair can arrange a bridge instrument at the same time. Contact us with your repair timeline and we will tell you what is available.
