The first X-ray accessory resulting from cooperation between AJK Analytical Services and Huber is the Capillary Boy, designed to simplify and speed filling of capillary tubes used in X-ray diffraction. It enables filling of these tiny tubes in less than two minutes, depending on the powder. The Capillary Boy claims to provide hassle-free filling of capillary tubes, to break less tubes, to reduce cost per analysis and to save up to 15 minutes for each capillary tube filled. It is portable, weighing less than 1 kg, and uses a standard 9-v battery. www.ajk-analytical.com
