Meet the Axcend Focus family

Compact Systems. Powerful Performance.

From real-time monitoring to automated injection, the Focus line delivers high-performance HPLC in a flexible, compact format that adapts to your workflows—not the other way around.

The Axcend Focus LC is small enough to be easily placed near the sample source, yet powerful and reliable enough to be used in any state-of-the-art laboratory.











The Axcend Focus LC delivers greater sensitivity than other UV-absorption-based HPLC systems, producing accurate test results rapidly, while using 1,000th of the solvents and generating 1,000th the waste.

The award-winning design of the Axcend Focus LC utilizes compact, tool-less and easily swappable cartridges to make modifying hardware settings fast and easy, something not found with most HPLCs.

Additionally, integrating the Axcend Focus LC with other instruments is a snap, whether you want the added sensitivity of a mass spectrometer or need the repeatability delivered by auto-samplers.

Lastly, not only is the the Axcend Focus LC highly competitive price-wise, but the ongoing costs to operate this capillary HPLC may be as low as 1,000 times of your current expenses for solvents and waste disposal.

The Axcend Focus LC® is not only compact and portable so you can have HPLC Anywhere® but it is also extremely versatile allowing it to be customized to your needs. There are endless configurations with single or dual column and detector wavelength options, various CDS choices, Autosampler and Robotic sample platform interfaces, third-party column connection, plus external detector selections such as MSD, VWD, and DAD.
