iXRD MINI Residual Stress Measurements

IXRD MINI Residual Stress System from PROTO
Making Residual Stress Measurements Affordable

The portable iXRD Mini is the latest addition to our residual stress x-ray diffraction (XRD) family, providing an affordable and convenient option for residual stress measurements. The system’s built-in mapping stage allows for advanced residual stress experiments without occupying the space of a traditional laboratory diffractometer.

  • Dual x-ray detectors and a full-range goniometer for sin2ψ multiple exposure measurement
  • Collect data from both positive and negative psi tilts to ensure correct shear stress evaluation
  • Built-in 50-mm linear mapping slide
  • User-replaceable x-ray tubes (made by Proto) to enable measurement on a wide variety of materials
  • Highly accurate and fast results
  • The system packs into one convenient travel case

LIGHTWEIGHT, PORTABLE, AND FAST

Proto’s iXRD Mini features a compact and portable self-contained control unit. With an integrated high-voltage supply, x-ray tube cooling, motor control, and system electronics, this system provides everything you need to run measurements safely and reliably. Additional safety features include external ports for interfacing with an enclosure or barrier and beacon lights indicating when the shutter and x-ray are on.

EASY AND CONVENIENT RESIDUAL STRESS MEASUREMENTS

The iXRD Mini is the perfect system for basic residual stress measurements. A high-performance goniometer maintains ASTM E915 accuracy in a low-maintenance design. The manual focus pointer enables accurate positioning of the goniometer in complex geometries. The automated focus pointer provides convenient focusing of large residual stress maps. Various x-ray beam apertures are available, including round 0.5, 1.0, and 2.0 mm options and rectangular 0.5×3, 1×3, and 2×5 mm options. High-stress standards, zero-stress powders, and RA standards ensure accurate results. Rapid movement of the z-range is accomplished with easy-adjust locking handles.
