HTME-1000 module - High-Temperature Heating Stage for Superior EBSD Analysis

The HTME-1000 module is a specialized heating stage developed for high-temperature Electron Backscatter Diffraction (EBSD) analysis at temperatures up to 1000 °C. It can be utilized in any SEM without requiring an Alemnis mechanical testing system.

It is built for vacuum operation and is tuned to limit sample radiative heating at temperatures above 500 °C to guarantee the best possible EBSD analysis.

Compact, Simple, and Retrofittable

The Alemnis HTME-1000 is thesmallest heating stage. Thanks to a straightforward and durable construction, it can be fixed without modification to any SEM stage. All vacuum feedthroughs for electrical connections and cooling water are supported on a single, uniformly sized flange.

Smart Thermal Management

The functioning of the HTME-1000 is safe and dependable, based on significant experience with in situ high-temperature applications. The EBSD-specific thermal shielding and active cooling system are tuned for the finest image quality and detector safety.
