In January 2012, Rigaku released the MiniFlex300 and the MiniFlex600, the latest models in the MiniFlex benchtop XRD series. The numerical designations indicate the generator performance of these systems, 300 W and 600 W respectively.
MiniFlex diffractometers are widely used in a variety of fields, such as ceramics, minerals, inorganic materials and pharmaceutical ingredients. They are small compared with conventional X-ray diffractometers— about one-twentieth the volume and one-tenth the weight.
