Research Hub
ANSTO's research capabilities, led by the OPAL nuclear research reactor and associated instruments provide access to users investigating areas as diverse as materials, life sciences, climate change and mining/engineering.
Motion Control
Neutron Beam Instruments require motion with rotational accuracies of up to 1/1000o and linear accuracies of up to 1µm.
Some of the design goals include:
- Use of off-the-shelf industrial components
- Communications via ethernet
