Innovation in Automation
About CINRG

Innovation in oil-analysis automation since day one.

CINRG Systems builds the automated instrumentation that takes the bottlenecks out of the commercial oil-analysis lab — particle counters, robotic viscometers, sample dilution systems and calibration fluids, all engineered around the way real labs actually work.

Mission

What we do

CINRG Systems is a manufacturer of innovative automated instrumentation for the commercial oil-analysis industry. Our product range includes auto-diluting particle counters, a robotic Houillon viscometer automation system, a configurable sample dilution system, and CINSTAN calibration fluids.

Our philosophy is centered on designing instrumentation that alleviates the bottlenecks in commercial laboratories. We can do this because we have deep industry knowledge that lets us create innovative methods for dealing with the realities of the commercial lab process — from heavily contaminated to highly viscous oil samples. Our instruments are designed not only to cope with these samples, but to allow for an increase in the processing volumes of such samples. Our instruments increase lab productivity right out of the box without the need for fine tuning.

Our latest product offering is a mini-version of our fully automated auto-diluting particle counter, developed in partnership with WearCheck International. If you're interested in how a CINRG system can improve your laboratory, please contact us.

Our Approach

Why labs choose CINRG

Three principles drive every instrument we ship.

Deep industry knowledge

Decades of hands-on time inside commercial oil-analysis labs — we design for the way real samples behave, not idealized ones.

Engineered for bottlenecks

From heavily contaminated to highly viscous samples, our instruments increase processing volume without sacrificing accuracy.

Productive out of the box

No long fine-tuning cycle. Our instruments arrive configured to your method and start delivering throughput on day one.
