Avantes introduces our smallest instrument ever, the AvaSpec-Micro!
It measures only 38.5 ml, about the size of a matchbox. The Micro will make its worldwide debut at the Laser show in Munich, Germany (13-16 May).
This newest addition to the CompactLine family of spectrometers comes very recently after the launch of the AvaSpec-Mini. The new AvaSpec-Micro is only 30% of the size of the Mini.
