Up to 96 independently programmable reaction sites delivers maximum flexibility. Up to 96 different cycling protocols can be performed simultaneously in one system. Multiple experimental runs can be started at different times, allowing several operators to use the system concurrently.
Symyx Rapid GPCTM is a high throughput method for characterizing polymer molecular weight and molecular weight distribution. This system includes a sample preparation system that is used to dilute the polymer samples and inject the samples into the GPC system. The sample preparation system has heated liquid dispensing pipettes for handling viscous polymers. The GPC system uses high-speed columns and an evaporative light scattering detector. Samples can be analyzed in as little as 10 minutes.
LockSpray Exact Mass Ionization Source. Make exact mass measurements easy.
The LockSpray dual electrospray ion source optimizes the co-introduction of analyte and lock mass compound directly into the ion source, providing authenticated exact mass measurement in MS and MS/MS modes to within 5 ppm RMS mass accuracy (3 ppm for Xevo QTof MS and 1 ppm for Xevo G2 Tof series, Xevo G2 QTof series and SYNAPT G2 series).
The MicroCal VP-ITC (Isothermal Titration Calorimeter) unit directly measures heat, evolved or absorbed in liquid samples as a result of mixing precise amounts of reactants. A spinning syringe is utilized for injecting and mixing of reactants. Spin rates are user selectable; the usual range is 0 to 1000 rpm. The normal temperature operating range is 2°C to 80°C. Wetted cell surfaces are Hastelloy, which are resistant to most solutions; however, strong acids should be avoided.

The open architecture allows for easy sample loading and probe placement. Flexibility of sample thermocouple allows for precise positioning in order to optimize temperature measurement.
Toho FLX-2320-S Thin Film Stress Measurement Systems offer industry standard capabilities for mass production and research facilities that demand accurate stress measurements on various films and substrates up to 200mm in diameter. Incorporating KLA-Tencor’s patented “Dual Wavelength” technology, Toho FLX Series tools determine and analyze surface stress caused by deposited thin films. The Toho FLX systems offer outstanding value in a variety of comprehensive Stress Measurement Solutions that utilize advanced measurement principles.
The triaxial cell is constructed of stainless steel for soil sampling. The standard unit features a see-through Plexiglas external cell wall. The advantages of the external cell wall are that after the specimen is completely ready for a test, the cell wall is lowered over the cell and fastened into place with a minimum of disturbance to the test sample. All the standard triaxial cells can accommodate smaller diameter specimens using optional platens. These triaxial cells accept specimens with a length of 2 to 2.5 times the diameter. Max specimen diameter is 150mm.
Temperature Shock Chamber (vendor: ESPEC, model TSD-100)
This large two-zone chamber provides rapid temperature cycling up to six times per hour. This induces metal fatigue, polymer cracking, interfacial delamination, and other failure mechanisms of interest to the electronics industry.
