Oversize chamber with fully motorized
stage for automated data collection. Specimens as
large as 3 kg can be observed with a stage x-and-y
travel of 100 mm X 100 mm. In-situ mechanical testing
using tensile, bending, and fatigue stages.

The oversize chamber accomadates
large specimens and a vareity of in-situ stages. |
Selected area channeling pattern capabilities
(SACP) with a spatial resolution of 3 micrometers.

Selected area channeling
pattern from TiAl reveals superlattice line details. |
Electron back scattered diffraction/orientation
imaging microscopy (EBSD/OIM) capabilities using a
CamScan Ortex camera and HKL Technologies Channel
Software. System allows both beam and stage scanning
control.
