Crystallography Analyzer

X-ray Diffraction (XRD) Systems are powerful analytical tools used to determine the crystalline structure, phase composition, and other structural properties of materials. These systems operate by directing X-rays at a sample and analyzing the diffraction patterns to reveal molecular and atomic arrangements. XRD is essential in fields like materials science, nanotechnology, pharmaceuticals, metallurgy, and geology due to its non-destructive nature and high resolution.

Case Studies

Case Study 1 (United States – Aerospace)

A U.S.-based aerospace component manufacturer implemented our high-resolution XRD system to analyze titanium alloys for structural defects and residual stresses. The result was a 25% improvement in failure prediction accuracy and a significant reduction in material waste due to more precise quality control.

Case Study 2 (United States – Battery Manufacturing)

A lithium-ion battery production company in Texas used our XRD systems to analyze electrode crystallinity and phase distribution. By integrating our automated pattern recognition software, they shortened analysis time by 40% and improved product consistency across batches.

Case Study 3 (Canada – University Research Lab)

A leading Canadian university incorporated our portable XRD units into their geology department to support field research. The lightweight, ruggedized units enabled real-time crystallography in remote regions, accelerating discoveries and enhancing publication output.
