MAHWAH, NJ, March 27, 2019 –EDAX, Inc., a leader in X-ray microanalysis and electron diffraction instrumentation has added a new, faster, low-noise CMOS camera to its Velocity™ EBSD Camera Series. The Velocity™ Super is currently the fastest EBSD camera in the world, offering high-speed EBSD mapping with the highest indexing performance on real-world materials.
The Velocity™ EBSD Camera Series now includes two cameras tailored to specific EBSD analysis applications:
- Velocity™ Plus – collection speed up to 3,000 indexed points per second
- Velocity™ Super – collection speed up to 4,500 indexed points per second
Powered by a CMOS sensor, the Velocity™ EBSD Camera Series combines indexing speeds up to 4,500 indexed points per second with indexing success rates of 99% or better. At these speeds, the Velocity™ cameras use 120 x 120 pixel EBSD patterns for improved band detection. This image resolution, combined with proven EDAX triplet indexing routines, provides orientation precision values of less than 0.1°.
The Velocity™ EBSD cameras can be integrated with compatible EDAX EDS detectors to provide an analytical system for efficient simultaneous EDS-EBSD collection, even at the highest collection speeds. Furthermore, combining the collection with EDAX ChI-Scan™ analysis results in useful integrated data for accurate phase differentiation.
This new addition to the EDAX portfolio of EBSD cameras offers users another option for high-speed mapping and accurate indexing to resolve crystallographic microstructures and help solve materials characterization challenges quickly and easily.
