INDUSEM

The INDUSEM is a new model of a scanning electron microscope intended for industrial applications. The system is based on a platform of  the third generation of  VEGA SEMs built-in a robust frame. This compact and transportable device equipped with an extra large chamber enables wide sample range for quality control and failure analysis within production plant.

Let the SEM Work for You

User can take an advantage of high-performance system for quick sample evaluation, optionally with elemental EDX microanalysis, all available from EasySEM™software interface. Device control is powered by numerous automated functions with possibility to create user-defined fully automated procedures.

Characteristic Features of the InduSEM

Industrial Design

  • Compact design with a wheeled chassis for routine transport
  • Extra large chamber with robust manipulator is able to accommodate large and heavy specimens
  • Variable pressure vacuum system allows investigation of different samples, including non-conductive materials
  • Easy-to-use touchscreen control interface for routine sample evaluation
  • Active vibration isolation greatly reduces ambient vibration

Modern Optics

  • The column design allows fully automated column set-up and alignment without any mechanical adjustments
  • A unique four-lens Wide Field Optics™ design offering a variety of working and displaying modes.
  • The proprietary Intermediate Lens (IML) that works as an "aperture changer" makes the exchange of the effective final aperture electromagnetically.
  • Usage of premium materials for the lenses and coils allows an ultra-fast imaging rate down to 20 ns/pixel with minimized dynamic distortion effects.
  • Newly Implemented  In-Flight Beam Tracing™  for higher system performance and beam optimization

Analytical Potential

  • First class YAG scintillator based detectors
  • A comprehensive choice of optional detectors and accessories
  • Chamber interface ports are optimized for micro-analytical use
  • Obtaining the clean chamber vacuum by a powerful turbomolecular and rotary fore vacuum pumps within a few minutes

Automation Enabled

  • Design of the system enables full software control and needs no mechanical adjustment
  • Range of automated procedures supports automated operation, setup and alignment
  • Optional software extension for automated particle analysis, large area observation
  • Built-in scripting language (Python) enables access to all control functions and allows building a user-defined fully automated procedures

TIMA


The TESCAN Integrated Mineral Analyzer (TIMA) is a new SEM-based automated mineralogy solution for the mining and minerals processing industries. TIMA measures mineral abundance, size by size liberation, mineral association, grain size and PGM search automatically on multiple samples of grain mounts, thin sections or polished sections. Applications include ore characterization, process optimization, remediation and the search for precious metals and rare earths.
