Since its inception in Japan in 1951, Rigaku Corporation has been at the forefront of analytical and industrial instrumentation technology. With hundreds of major innovations to its credit, Rigaku and its subsidiary companies are world leaders in the fields of X-ray spectrometry, X-ray diffraction, X-ray optics, as well as small molecule and protein crystallography.
ZSX Primus II (XRF)
The new ZSX Primus II features an innovative optics-above configuration. Never again worry about a contaminated beam path or down time due to sample chamber maintenance. The optics-above geometry eliminates cleaning worries and increases up time.
With all the great features of the ZSX series (dual vacuum system, automatic vacuum control, Mapping/Micro analysis, superior ultralight element sensitivity, automatic flow proportional wire cleaning, along with the best software package presently available) the tube-above option now completes this instrument series.
The ZSX Primus series provides aggressive performance with the flexibility for analyzing the most complex samples. The 30 micron tube, the thinnest end-window tube available in the industry, guarantees that light elements are easy and clear to interpret. Combined with the most advanced mapping package to detect homogeneity and inclusions, the ZSX Primus II is heads above the competition. With a smaller footprint than other full size XRF instruments, the ZSX Primus II is ready to meet the challenges facing your lab in the 21st century.
Mini Z Series (WDXRF)
The Mini-Z series of compact benchtop wavelength dispersive XRF analyzers are designed for analyzing specific elements. Since the optics are optimally configured to a particular element, this series allows for high precision and ease of analysis. The Sulfur analyzer is configured for analysis of S in fuel oil, gasoline, diesel, etc., meets the 15 ppm EPA regulation, and has a LLD (lower limit of detection) of 0.3 ppm.
This instrument can also be configured as a Si analyzer (e.g., for coated Si on paper or plastic), an Al analyzer (e.g., for coated Al on paper or plastic), a Ni analyzer, (e.g., for Ni coating or plating) and a Zr analyzer (e.g., for Zr coating).
Supermini (WDXRF)
Low levels of detection and exceptional energy resolution are the trademarks of the wavelength dispersive XRF (WDXRF) technique. Traditional high-powered "big iron" WDXRF spectrometers provide the ultimate in lower limit of detection and energy resolution, but have a high cost of ownership and somewhat specialized installation requirements.
The sensitivity derived from the 200 W source makes the Supermini ideal for applications in metals, cement, environmental, and regulatory compliance where extra low levels of detection are required.
Measurements from F to U are possible under vacuum or helium environments making the Supermini flexible, able to measure solids, liquids, and powders. The Supermini comes standard with a 12-position sample changer for simple, automated operation. As with all Rigaku benchtop WDXRF systems the Supermini contains all the special software features available in the other members of Rigaku's ZSX series. Data processing is powerful and simple, using Rigaku's trademark flowbar interface for both quantitative and qualitative analysis.
Miniflex II (XRD)
The exceptional price-to-performance ratio of the MiniFlex II benchtop X-ray diffractometer sets a new standard for companies, universities, and other research institutions looking to add XRD capabilities to research, development, and educational activities. Low power consumption, compact design, and legendary maintenance-free operation combine to lower the cost of ownership far beyond what would be expected from the already low cost of initial acquisition.
Smartlab (XRD)
The SmartLab high-resolution diffraction system represents the state of the art in fully automated modular XRD systems. The system incorporates a high resolution theta/theta closed loop goniometer drive system, CBO, an in-plane scattering arm, an optional 9.0 kW rotating anode generator, and a fully automated optical system to make advanced measurements possible for both expert and novice users of the system.
Ultima IV (XRD)
The Ultima IV represents the state of the art in multipurpose X-ray diffraction (XRD) systems. Incorporating Rigaku's patented cross beam optics (CBO) technology for permanently mounted, permanently aligned and user-selectable parallel and focusing geometries, the Ultima IV X-ray diffractometer can perform many different measurements...fast.
The Ultima IV is the only XRD system in the market today that incorporates fully automatic alignment. When coupled with CBO, the automatic alignment capability makes the Ultima IV X-ray diffractometer the most flexible system available for multipurpose applications.
In the Ultima IV XRD system, CBO technology eliminates time spent switching geometries, enables everyday users to run both sets of experiments without the need to reconfigure the system, and reduces wear and possible optic damage associated with the recurrent switching process.
CBO and automatic alignment combine for the ultimate in functionality for:
