Key features
2D SAXS: Pure brilliance
Handle your samples with the help of the best-in-class beam delivery system. Thanks to a brilliant X-ray beam with the highest spectral purity (>99.9 % Cu Kα) and scatterless beam collimation, users are guaranteed synchrotron-like 1D and 2D SAXS data quality (including SAXS/WAXS/GISAXS) with minimum experimental effort and within the shortest exposure times. This SAXS system, with its brilliant setup and industry-leading optical system, enables the resolution of structures up to 300 nm, at the most compact system size (2.7 m x 0.9 m).

Flexibility for your experiments
Customize your system to tackle various samples with a wide range of stages tailored specifically for SAXS applications. Analyze almost any nanostructured material, and switch between different sample stages seamlessly with automatically aligned components. The range of stages includes the TCStage for temperature-controlled analysis and the GISAXS stage for grazing-incident analysis, amongst others.

Accelerate your processes with automation
With all routine tasks fully automated, accelerate your measurement processes, and allow the SAXSdrive software to align all X-ray components and sample stages. You’ll also minimize human error when it comes to complex SAXS experiments.
Automate your sample throughput too with the low-volume autosampler for up to 192 samples, and ensure they maintain their integrity during storage with the temperature-controlled well plate compartment.

Powerful software
The SAXSdrive™ and SAXSanalysis™ software solutions are combinable with automated routine steps, such as temperature scans and time-dependent studies, allowing you to perform experiments while getting on with more important tasks. A free and life-long software update policy ensures that customers benefit from future development.
Analyze your 1D and 2D SAXS data sets using customizable templates, and determine parameters like radius of gyration (Rg), particle size, Porod constant, specific surface, and Kratky plot. Export data into all relevant formats for further analysis. SAXSanalysis ensures you meet industry standards and norms, such as ISO 20804.
