D8 VENTURE 

Modular, Dual-Wavelength Platform for Single-Crystal X-ray Diffraction

The D8 VENTURE is a modular diffractometer with single-wavelength or dual-wavelength options designed for high-performance crystallography in chemistry, materials science and the life sciences. 

The modular D8 VENTURE platform gives crystallographers the ability to create a high-performance diffractometer that matches their research needs.

The system's spacious interior, in a relatively compact footprint, provides room for an additional X-ray source, our SCOUT system for automated crystallography, an ISX stage for in situ crystallography or devices for crystallography at non-ambient conditions.

The D8 VENTURE uses best-in-class components and is available with air cooling to ensure the collection of high-quality diffraction data for accurate structure determination. 

Key Features:

                -  Sealed-tube microfocus X-ray sources: IµS 3.0, for the Efficiency Class.

                -  Diamond-hybrid microfocus X-ray sources: IµS DIAMOND II, for the Performance Class

                -  Liquid-metal-jet X-ray source: METALJET MC, for the Beamline Class

  • Advanced safety enclosure: TUEV certified safety enclosure.
  • Software: APEX for chemical crystallography and/or PROTEUM for structural biology.
  • Enhancements/ Upgrades: SCOUT automated sample handling, ISX Stage, High-Temperature Device, and more
The D8 VENTURE's spacious interior provides room for a second wavelength source, a liquid-metal-jet source or automation hardware.

Technologies Available for the D8 VENTURE
