X-ray scope has large sample chamber
Larger sample chambers enable the scientist to adapt EDXRF technology to applications that typically require X-ray analysis of larger, less standard sample forms
The innovative design of the XGT-5000 allows for a non-destructive analysis at normal atmospheric pressure.
It incorporates a novel coaxial arrangement of the X-ray beam and the optical visual image to enable fast and accurate sample positioning.
The recently developed and ground breaking Horiba X-ray guide tube (XGT) incorporated within the system provides a spatial resolution down to 10um, said to be an unprecedented performance in the field of micro X-ray analysis.
The new capabilities and functionality of the XGT-5000 expands the technique of X-ray elemental analysis from the conventional applications of material research to emerging fields of interest such as biology, mineralogy and environmental analysis.
