Description

Setting New Standards in Resolution & Intensity
LEYBOLD’s X-RAY Apparatus impresses with its superior safety concept, and its continuously improved capabilities and features. Six different X-ray tubes (with different anode materials) are available, which is a unique feature for an educational X-ray apparatus.

This X-RAY apparatus is setting new standards in resolution and intensity in the field of education worldwide. Not only the high resolution of the Bragg spectra is impressive, but also the new high-resolution X-ray image sensor, the reliable X-ray energy detector and the gold tube.

The modular structure of the system enables both a low-cost introduction (FUNDAMENTAL Experiments) and advanced applications (PROFESSIONAL Experiments) for several different test subjects.

“We have implemented the LEYBOLD cabinet X-ray system in both undergraduate and graduate labs and we are very happy with the results. The students really enjoy being able to see all components of the X-ray tube. AYVA set us up quickly and we haven’t had any issues since. The modular cabinet X-ray system is customizable for a variety of experiments from materials analysis, to dosimetry, to even imaging. We are looking forward to working with AYVA to expand the system capabilities in the future.”
