Multipurpose X-ray Diffractometer

The Universal X-ray Diffractometer is a versatile high-precision vertical goniometric X-ray diffractometer, unique in its capabilities for scientific research and analytical control in industry. Solves all problems of X-ray diffractometry.

The Empyrean X-ray Diffractometer is PANalytical's latest innovation with a system of fully calibrated optical modules capable of solving every possible X-ray diffraction problem today.

For the first time in diffraction studies, the technology of "tomographic" scanning of a sample was used, which allows "seeing" it in any plane and showing a three-dimensional projection of the internal structure of the sample.

Modular design, PreFIX platform

As in previous models of PANAlytic diffractometers, the layout of all optical modules was developed on a single PANAlytic development - the PreFIX platform (Pre-aligned Fast replaceable X-ray modules), where all modules are pre-calibrated and implemented at the factory. Does not require smoothing. Also, no configuration is required when using the modules on other Empyrean systems.

The PreFIX platform allows you to change all optical modules without exception (including primary and secondary optics) as quickly and easily as possible. Thus, powders, crystals, textures, stresses, films, surfaces, etc. can be easily measured sequentially in one diffractometer by simply changing the corresponding prefix.

There is no need to buy a new system for a new task - you just need to buy the appropriate modules. You really get a completely new diffractometer with no limits on completeness of analysis and / or sensitivity.
