Products
Slit Systems
Over the last 25 years, JJ X-Ray has designed a large portfolio of slit systems used at x-ray and neutron facilities all over the world. Our top priority is to give the customer the best solution whether they need the slit system to be standard, modified or customized.

Collimators
All collimators are based on a custom design and are divided into three categories defined by the orientation of the foils.

Optics
JJ X-Ray A/S supplies high-precision refractive and reflective optics for synchrotron applications. Their refractive optics include SCD CRLs and lenses in beryllium, aluminum, and nickel for beam focusing. Reflective optics feature customizable mirror systems suitable for UHV/XHV environments, offering options like bending, cooling, and heating for enhanced stability and performance.

Monochromators
JJ X-Ray A/S provides a range of monochromators designed for precise control of X-ray wavelengths in various research and industrial applications. Monochromators are essential for selecting specific wavelengths from an X-ray beam, improving the quality and resolution of diffraction and spectroscopy measurements.

Diagnostics and Analysis
JJ X-Ray offers a range of cutting-edge products designed to enhance the precision and reliability of X-ray analysis systems. Diagnostic and analytic tools are essential for accurately measuring and analyzing X-ray beams, ensuring optimal performance across a variety of applications.

Positioning Systems
JJ X-Ray offers an extensive selection of positioning systems, designed for exact motion and endurance with a focus on scientific sector. Achieving groundbreaking results hinges on precise control, and our systems deliver reliable, repeatable motions for a variety of applications.

Motion Control Systems
JJ X-Ray provides comprehensive PLC solutions designed to enhance the integration and functionality beamline equipment. Our expertise in motion control and programmable logic controllers (PLCs) enables us to develop tailored automation systems that meet the specific demands in terms of precision and safety of scientific instrumentation in research environments.
We acknowledge that reliable control systems are essential for the optimal operation of beamline components. Our programming approach emphasizes robustness, flexibility, and ease of use, which collectively simplify the day-to-day management of complex equipment. By meticulously designing PLC-based solutions, we help streamline system operation, reduce downtime, and improve overall reliability, allowing researchers and technicians to focus more on their scientific objectives.
Our experience in the field of motion control is central to delivering high-accuracy, synchronized movements critical for beamline applications. Through sophisticated PLC programming, we can coordinate multiple axes, manage feedback loops, and implement safety interlocks. This precise control ensures that delicate components are moved smoothly and accurately, minimizing potential disturbances to experimental results. The result is a system that not only performs efficiently but also maintains the integrity of sensitive experiments.

Custom Solutions
When working on complex or custom projects, we always work in close collaboration with the customer to make sure all requirements are met, and projects are executed in a timely manner.

Large projects
Components for the APS upgrade project
A recent project, which is a good example for this collaboration, is the production of components for the APS-Upgrade. For this meticulously planned upgrade of the Advanced Photon Source in the US, we provide components with a total value of over 6 million USD.
The scope of supply includes 19 Compound Refractive Lens (CRL) systems, positioning equipment for long range, heavy weight, and highly precise and stabile motions. Moreover, a large number of slits, masks, filters and beam diagnostics are delivered.
One of the highlights of the supply is the new Small-Angle X-ray Scattering flight tube — one of the first major new components to be installed on a feature beamline. This system includes an integrated vacuum flight path and detector motion system. The flight path allows sample-to-detector distances ranging from 3601 mm to 11500 mm using a collapsing series of bellows. Furthermore, there is a 5-degree horizontal motion based on air casters.

This premier national research facility provides ultra-bright, high-energy x-ray beams to more than 5,000 (and growing) scientists from across the United States.
