The AQS (Acquisition System) is the logical and succeeding design of Bruker’s AVANCE concept. The modular construction of the AQR and AQX units have been unified, higher integrated and more standardized. The flexibility of the AQS design allows that each AQS chassis can be configured to optimally support the different NMR needs and applications. Further digital implementation of important system parts leads to even higher stability, reliability and more compact hardware.
