Xstress DR45
Xstress DR45 is a new generation of X-ray diffractometers, delivering comprehensive data faster than before. Xstress DR45 takes residual stress measurements beyond just a laboratory setting and into the production area. The ease of an uncomplicated user interface is backed by seamless efficiency.
For field use
- Quick assembly, ready to use in 10 minutes
- Robust design in diffractometer and Xstress MU
- Diffractometer design enables measurement on uneven surfaces; with magnetic legs diffractometer can be fixed to different positions
For laboratory use
- Follows the standard EN15305
- Multiple calculations available, includes features such as linear and elliptical regression, Dölle-Hauk, stress tensor and principal stresses. Peak fitting functions include cross-correlation, parabolic, Gauss, Lorentz, modified Lorentz, intermediate Lorentz, Pearson VII, Pseudo-Voigt, Voigt, centroid, centered centroid, sliding center of gravity, and midchord
- X-ray diffractometer design enables measuring a great variation of different sized and shaped parts
- Effortless and fast X-ray tube change
For manufacturing industry
