Integrating SEM and EDS in one system makes it much quicker and easier to identify the root cause of failures. It’s up to twice as fast as conventional techniques, for a lower cost-per-sample and long-term savings.
SEM-EDS can be used to characterise the composition of polymer composites. This is useful in failure analysis, to detect and identify contaminants and defects, and to check homogeneity.
How SEM/EDS is used in failure analysis of steel, with examples of bend test failures, coating defects and corrosion in the automotive industry.
We’re proud to announce a new partnership with Thermo Fisher Scientific as official distributor of the Axia ChemiSEM scanning electron microscope in the UK and Ireland.
How to analyse layers and coatings with Raman spectroscopy, with the example of paint on coated metal.
Breakthrough technique for identifying contaminants in failure analysis and process control, using O-PTIR.
Unambiguously identify organic contamination on silicon wafers and micro-electronics with a AFM-IR technique, using the Bruker Anasys nanoIR3.
Analytical techniques for process control of manufacturing involving metal powders. How XRD, XRF and micro-CT are used for failure analysis, element composition and mapping, crystalline phase identification, parts inspection and more.
