Overview

The combination of usability and performance takes your lab work to a new level.

Aeris Research Edition gives you better information and deeper insights, so you can get to the answers more effectively, refine your materials, advance your knowledge and push forward that scientific frontier.

Freeing your time to do the interesting science

Whatever project you are working on, the fast acquisition of phase information from your sample in question can be crucial for your research. 

Just collect X-ray diffraction data with Aeris Research and subsequently employ the HighScore suite to obtain a wealth of crystallographic information.

With measurement configurations including reflection, transmission and grazing incidence X-ray diffraction (GIXRD), you have all you need to get the best data for any type of polycrystalline material.

An easy touch

The most intuitive X-ray diffractometer: Aeris is an easy-to-operate and user-friendly benchtop X-ray diffractometer. With its intuitive operation, Aeris makes X-ray diffraction so simple that it is accessible for everyone. 

The unique touch screen user interface lets you proceed effortlessly through the measurement process of your samples. Your results are always just a few taps away:

  1. Place your sample
  2. Select measurement program
  3. View results

Best-in-class performance

Outperforming expectations 

Aeris is your workhorse for rapid and reliable phase identification and Rietveld analysis of powder samples.

Thanks to the incorporation of technologies that have already proven their benefits on Malvern Panalytical's high-end systems, the Research edition of Aeris delivers data quality that was previously only possible with a full-size floor-standing system.

The ideal teaching tool

With the optional 2D detector you can teach the fundamentals of powder diffraction in a visual manner. 

Fast, flexible and future-proof

Aeris is very flexible and offers possibilities for all sorts of powder diffraction measurements. 

The instrument can accommodate various types of sample holders in combination with a sample changer and it can be equipped with a BTS 500 Benchtop Heating Stage.

Minimal infrastructural requirements

No cooling water, no chiller, no compressed air.

The only thing you need is a single-phase power socket.

The instrument is desktop, easy to use, analyzes the samples very quickly and is economic."
