MAHWAH, NJ – EDAX, Inc., a leader in X-ray microanalysis and electron diffraction instrumentation, has introduced new APEX™ Analysis software for its Element Silicon Drift Detector (SDD) for tabletop scanning electron microscopes (SEMs), a product line focused on serving the needs of the industrial market.
The APEX™ software package for Element was developed with a primary focus on industrial needs and ensures high-end results, combined with ease of use. With its touchscreen capability, the APEX™ interface is very user-friendly and can be customized for a specific workflow, offering a wide choice of layouts, colors and data report formats. It has a modular architecture and can be interfaced with external application packages.
The Element SDD delivers powerful analytical capability in a compact package, maximizing performance and flexibility, while providing streamlined operation to guarantee fast results and easy operation. It offers excellent resolution and market-leading throughput. It is designed with a silicon nitride (Si3N4 ) window to optimize low-energy X-ray transmission for light element analysis. The Element SDD’s advanced design allows for a small footprint for the growing tabletop SEM market.
“The APEX™ Analysis software package is a perfect extension of our customized product line for industrial applications,” comments Oleg Lourie, Senior Product Manager for EDS. “Element with APEX™ Analysis software, provides an easy-to-use microscopy tool, that offers fast and efficient results for industrial analysis needs.”
EDAX will introduce the Element SDD for tabletop with APEX™ Analysis software at the Microscopy and Microanalysis 2016 Conference, July 25 to 28, in Columbus, OH, (Booth #1114).
