概述

The desktop beamline (dtb) is a highly sophisticated goniometer system. Almost all movements are motorized and can be controlled by a host computer. This allows for a detector system mounted onto the dtb to be aligned with the beam without user intervention. The dtb is capable of finding the beam and refining the optimal position thus yielding the best possible primary X-ray beam intensity. In addition, a beam profile can be obtained and slit apertures can be determined automatically to fit the monochromators properties.
