The MiniFlex XpC offers the performance level of much larger systems, in the world’s smallest footprint for an online XRD.
Features:
Analytical speed and accuracy are paramount in industrial operations. These factors have been addressed in the design of the MiniFlex XpC by using: - A newly design compact, 800 W high-flux X-ray source and power supply
- World’s largest area/high-throughput 1D detector, enabling higher-intensity data collection
- Optimized θ / θ sample geometry that maintains a horizontal sample orientation
- Streamlined user interface
- Compatibility with sample loading robots or conveyors
- Compact design that can easily be incorporated into existing operations
- A recently patented variable-width scattering slit minimizing background at lower angles
- Sample spinner that negates the effects of preferred orientation
- Uses industry standard steel ring sample holders
Streamlined Operation
In addition to sample loading automation, Rigaku has introduced EasyX, a simplified user interface that allows operators of any skill level to measure and obtain results in as few as three clicks. Built on the same comprehensive platform that underpins Rigaku’s most sophisticated XRDs like the SmartLab, EasyX provides simplified access to the functionalities required for routine QC workflows, including automated pass/fail analysis. A user-friendly graphical user interface accessible via the optional touchscreen allows simple operation of the instrument as well as interpretation of the results.
Compact Design
The MiniFlex XpC has the smallest footprint (0.9 m2) of any instrument in its class. This specification includes the touchscreen user interface.
Online Quality Control
A newly developed sample loader makes the MiniFlex XpC ideal for QC operations. For applications with higher-throughput levels, the system can be integrated with a sample loading robot or a conveyor....

This new capability allows you to go beyond the limitations of X-ray diffraction (XRD), which requires samples greater them 1 µm.
- Directly determine 3D molecular structures of submicron crystals for the first time
- Rigaku’s high-speed, high-sensitivity photon counting detector - HyPix-ED
- JEOL’s expertise in generation and control of stable electron beams – 200 kV electron source and optics
- Rigaku’s powerful single crystal analysis software – CrysAlisPro-ED
3DED/microED is an excellent complementary technique to XRD, and the compact design of the XtaLAB Synergy-ED allows it to be easily located in laboratories alongside these instruments. Crystallographers familiar with Rigaku diffractometers running CrysAlisPRO will be able to adapt to the CrysAlisPRO-ED interface very quickly, as it is based on the same intuitive platform.
The fully integrated system incorporates a seamless workflow from data collection to structure determination of three-dimensional molecular structures. AutoChem, which is fully integrated into CrysAlisPRO, performs fast, fully automated structure solution and refinement during data collection, optimizing your productivity.
3DED/microED allows direct structural determination of sub-micron sized crystals that could only previously be postulated by techniques such as NMR. As an emerging technique, there is scope for the generation of many publications using the XtaLAB Synergy-ED.
