ACA - Seamless Integration of ASA with Hitachi Desktop SEM TM3030 for Enhanced Analysis

The Alemnis Compact Assembly (ACA), Alemnis’ most compact design, combines the time-tested technology of the ASA with the small Hitachi Desktop SEM TM3030. The integration is simple, needs no instrument modification, and can be completed quickly by any user, allowing the TM3030 to be utilized for regular SEM operations.

The Advantages:

Low-vac mode for non-conductive specimens

Compact footprint, no special infrastructure requirements

No SEM experience or technician required

Magnification from 25× to 250,000×

The ACA can be used ex-situ for testing in the air and is also compatible with the High Strain Rate module.

Example of application:

Evaluating the durability of glass structures made using the selective laser etching technique.

True Displacement Control is a feature of the desktop SEM’s compact solution, just like it is with all Alemnis indenters.

Strain rates from 0.0001 s^-1 up to 1000 s^-1

Load range from 4 µN up to 4 N

Perfect control of indentation depth and compression strain

Constant displacement speed thanks to piezoelectric actuation
