X-Ray Diffraction Lattice GO ● Compact lightweight XRD for easy portability. ● Delivers precise results within a few minutes. ● Analyze anywhere / Wide-angle goniometer (0°-130°/ -3°-156°).

The Lattice GO redefines portable X-ray diffraction, delivering laboratory-grade performance in a compact, lightweight system. Designed for versatility, it integrates a specialized X-ray source, Bragg-Brentano diffraction geometry, and an advanced 2D array detector to generate high-quality XRD spectra in minutes.

Optimised for field research, on-site quality control, and space-constrained laboratories, the Lattice GO provides high-intensity data with exceptional angular precision, rivaling traditional benchtop systems. Its rugged construction, rapid scanning capability, and user-friendly operation ensure reliable results in any environment.

With the Lattice GO, high-resolution diffraction is no longer confined to the lab—bringing powerful material analysis wherever it’s needed.

Outstanding service

I have been using Meritics for a number of years and they always provide outstanding service and support.
They have a rapid response turnarounds and are very knowledgeable of the techniques and products they provide.

LeanneB-375

Good service, very helpful

We use Meritics for the PM service and installation of all our FlowCams . Megan has been coming to our site for a number of years. She is very efficient in her work, but most of all Megan is very helpful. We have had issues with one of instruments after the install and Megan did her utmost to try and solve it while on site, even though it wasn’t solved Megan has been in contact with the supplier of the instrument to try and solve this problem for us.

Superb and prompt service

I have used this company through the laboratory I work for frequently. We specialise in soil analysis, and Meritics were chosen as they have extensive knowledge of the instruments we use. We have several laser particle diffraction analysers with a service contract, and service is always very prompt and meticulous….

JamesG-2483

Good experience over two years

Meritics have covered the annual servicing of our Multisizer 4e instrument since we purchased it from them just over two years ago. The application scientist who performed the servicing was friendly, knowledgeable, and extremely helpful, happily answering a barrage of questions about how best to use and maintain the instrument. All my interactions with Meritics staff have been positive. I would happily recommend them.

RajG-62

Fully committed to customer service

Service second to none, both units serviced and all questions answers by engineer while on site.

Highly recommend Meritics for equipment purchases and aftercare services

After owning one of our instruments for over 8 Years which was purchased from Meritics, it suffered its first breakdown. Upon contacting Meritics, I was instantly put through to an engineer who was very helpful. Upon inspection of the manual, it was decided that it would be more cost effective to have a Meritics engineer visit. The Meritics staff were very communicative and kept me up to date.

Excellent Service

Lovely, friendly and extremely helpful. David and his team are always on call with advise and are very easy to work with and are always happy to help.

Professional, Customer-oriented, fast service

We had issues with one of the aperture tubes provided by Meritics on a Friday afternoon, while very pressed for a review deadline. Meritics handled our inquiries very fast and professionally and helped us out by shipping us their spare tube to use in the mean time free of charge, while we waited for our new tube to arrive. Communication was very pleasant.

VeerleB

Very helpful and prompt

I emailed for some technical help and also to get some spares and both the engineer (David) and purchasing (Sophie) were very prompt to respond and helpful. We do have a service contract but I appreciated being able to email the engineer directly.
