Beamline Solutions for Crystallography
Single-Crystal X-ray Diffractometers Providing Beamline Capabilities
The Beamline Solutions for Crystallography use a liquid-metal jet X-ray source to deliver beamline-class performance to the home laboratory.
Our Beamline Solutions use Ga radiation.
Our Beamline Solutions for Crystallography are powered by a METALJET MC X‑ray source which delivers exceptional X-ray intensity and data quality.
METALJET MC uses a high-speed liquid metal jet as the anode to deliver an unprecedented X-ray intensity in a stable microfocus beam, enabling experiments that would otherwise only be possible at synchrotron facilities.
Our Beamline Solutions are made for the most challenging crystallography including proteins and other biological macromolecules, strongly disordered structures, and metal-organic frameworks.
Our Beamline Class single-crystal X-ray diffractometers are available built to your specification or as a pre-configured flagship solution - the D8 VENTURE METALJET.
Choosing the Right Wavelength for Your Application
Our Beamline Solutions are equipped with a liquid-metal-jet gallium (Ga) source.
Ga radiation benefits from both excellent penetration and reduced absorption effects, supporting reliable data collection from the most challenging samples and crystallographic experiments that push beyond routine measurements.

D8 VENTURE METALJET: Beamline Capabilities In-House
The D8 VENTURE METALJET is the flagship configuration of our Beamline Solutions for single-crystal X-ray diffraction. It is an ultra-high-performance system designed for the most-demanding crystallographic experiments.
Bringing Synchrotron Performance to Your Home Lab
The D8 VENTURE METALJET combines the D8 VENTURE platform with the unmatched intensity of the METALJET MC X‑ray source to deliver synchrotron‑quality results.
The high brightness of the Ga beam enables faster data collection, an enhanced signal-to-noise ratio and more reliable measurements even from small, weakly diffracting crystals.
The exceptionally high performance of the D8 VENTURE METALJET means it is well-suited for the analysis of challenging targets such as proteins, highly porous structures and more.
