An X‐ray diffractometer for industrial applications has been designed, installed at SPring‐8 BL24XU and tested by measuring a standard Al 2 O 3 powder sample. The measurement results prove the high precision of the diffractometer. The diffractometer was also tested by conducting grazing‐incidence X‐ray diffraction measurements of ion‐implanted chromium‐coated steel. The validity of a new method for X‐ray stress measurements of polished stainless steel is also proposed and confirmed. The results prove the suitability of this diffractometer for industrial applications.
