Get caught up on the latest in EDAX APEX software

Get your results faster and more accurately with EDAX® APEX™ 3.1, which is out now and brings support for new features for energy dispersive x-ray spectroscopy (EDS) and electron backscatter diffraction (EBSD) techniques.

Rebuild elemental maps up to 50x faster

  • Generate true elemental maps in seconds or minutes instead of hours. Our refactored analytical engine calculates net count and, atomic or weight percent maps quickly, enabling rapid interpretation and improved workflow efficiency

Achieve greater accuracy on complex samples

  • Experience ~2× better carbon quantification accuracy with our enhanced analytical model
  • Advanced features are now available to everyone. Advanced features, such oxygen by stoichiometry and conductive coating correction, are now in APEX EDS Standard, making it easier to analyze challenging samples reliably

Easier to use

  • Personalized acquisition and analysis settings are now associated with your user to prevent unwanted changes
  • Sort analytical results by position or element to simplify quantitative analysis of multiple samples or regions of interest
  • Uses the same quantification engine across all experiment types
  • New safety functionality to improve protection of EBSD detectors during insertion

Supports a wider range of microscope columns and microscope vendors

  • Supports a broader range of electron microscope columns and vendors, enabling more laboratories to leverage EDAX detectors and software seamlessly

Elevate your data collection and analysis with APEX 3.1, now running on Microsoft Windows 11.
