These beamlines will support a broad range of biomedical structure determination methods. The experimental stations are designed and fabricated in-house to meet the challenging requirements resulting from the small beam size of 1 µm and the extremely short working distance of only 190 mm from the beam exit window to the FMX focal spot. The compact beam conditioning unit contains, within 140 mm, a beam position monitor, an attenuator, primary slits, an intensity monitor, a sub-millisecond shutter, and secondary slits. The diffractometers consist of an interchangeable dual axis air bearing-based goniometers with a target sphere of confusion of 100 nm, an on-axis microscope, an x-ray fluorescence detector and dynamic beam shaping slits. The end stations are integrated in a compact space on a granite machine bed with high modularity for future upgrades and extensions. Real-time autonomous robotic systems are being implemented for high through-put cryogenic sample handling.
