Field-proven and commonly used in boilers, heat exchangers and fin-fan tubes.

  • Optical Microscope

Eye piece: 10x

Objective: 5x, 10x, 20x, 50x, 100x

Filter: Blue, Green, Yellow

Analysis:Microstructural analysis, grain number, grain size, layer thickness measurement, inclusion etc.

  • Stereo Binocular Microscope

A stereo microscope provides a three-dimensional view of the specimen. It does this with separate objective lenses and eyepieces for each eye. They have lower magnification when compared to compound microscopes, but they also have a longer working distance and It uses for failure analysis & investigation of a component at low magnification on fracture surface to see the crack/failure initiation zone or other features.

  • Scanning Electron Microscope

Scanning electron microscope (SEM) is a versatile equipment which works on the principle of interactions of the electron beam with the atoms at various depths within the sample to produce the images. It produces various types of signals containing the information about the surface topography as well as the compositions of the sample.

Specificaion:

Accelerating Voltage: 0.5 to 30kV

Resolution: 3.0nm at 30kV,SEI

8.0nm at 3kV SEI
