Material composition analysis
Analysis of structure, topography, and chemical composition.
Challenges:
- Characterization and chemical composition of bulk stock material and raw powder
- Material quality assessment: porosity, cracks, grain structure, critical inclusions
Your benefit with ZEISS:
- Light microscopy: capture large powder particle or raw material size
- Scanning electron microscopy: Automated EDX measurements in ZEISS SmartPI software reveal chemical composition of material
- Segmentation and auto-evaluation of porosity, crack, and inclusion images within predefined ZEISS ZEN core job template
- Consistent material feedstock quality with early detection of fluctuations
- Assess material recycling/reuse strategy.
