Why Your Forensic Lab Needs the TRACE Bullet Recovery Chamber

In the field of forensic science, precision and reliability are non-negotiable. The TRACE Bullet Recovery Chamber represents a paradigm shift in ballistic evidence recovery, designed to meet the exacting standards of forensic science while providing unparalleled efficiency and safety. Here’s why the TRACE system is an essential asset for any forensic laboratory—and what sets it apart from other solutions on the market:

Pristine Ballistic Evidence Recovery

The TRACE Bullet Recovery Chamber is engineered to recover bullets and casings in pristine condition, preserving critical features such as rifling impressions, striations, and ballistic fingerprints. This ensures that the evidence remains untampered and fully analyzable for comparison and identification.

Operator Safety at the Forefront

Safety is paramount in ballistic testing, and TRACE incorporates advanced safety mechanisms to protect examiners during use. Its hydraulic and pneumatic systems stabilize the chamber, while its ergonomic adjustments ensure optimal operator positioning. The high-strength polyethylene receptacle and robust sealing mechanism prevent water expulsion during firing, creating a secure and controlled environment.

Mobility and Versatility in Operation

Traditional bullet recovery setups often require dedicated facilities, increasing costs and limiting flexibility. The TRACE Bullet Recovery Chamber, mounted on a mobile platform with sturdy wheels, provides unmatched portability. This mobility allows for seamless operation in various locations, whether in the lab, at a crime scene, or during field investigations, without the need for permanent installations or specialized rooms.

Adaptability Across Firearm Types

TRACE is compatible with a broad spectrum of calibers, from low-velocity rounds used in pistols and revolvers to high-speed projectiles from rifles. Its capacity to handle reduced powder charge rounds ensures safe and effective recovery of even high-energy projectiles, meeting the diverse demands of forensic casework.

What Differentiates TRACE from Others?

TRACE stands out as a comprehensive, modern solution for ballistic evidence recovery. Unlike traditional systems requiring heavy infrastructure and static installations, TRACE’s mobile design allows you to bring the chamber wherever it's needed, indoors or outdoors. Its advanced automation and real-time monitoring features surpass outdated, manual methods, significantly improving efficiency and reliability. Furthermore, TRACE is designed with a focus on user experience, combining precision, safety, and versatility to meet the highest standards of forensic examination.

Advancing Forensic Excellence

The TRACE Bullet Recovery Chamber exemplifies the future of ballistic testing, combining state-of-the-art technology with practical, examiner-focused design. Its precision, safety features, mobility, and innovative approach make it an indispensable tool for laboratories committed to excellence in firearms and toolmark examination.

Equip your lab with TRACE and elevate the standards of ballistic evidence recovery. With TRACE, you ensure accuracy, efficiency, and safety in every investigation, solidifying your commitment to justice and forensic integrity.
