TEAM Pegasus: Next Generation in Synergistic Materials Characterization

Edax has introduced the TEAM Pegasus system, which combines Energy Dispersive Spectroscopy (EDS) and Electron Backscatter Diffraction (EBSD) hardware with EDAX's TEAM software platform to create the next generation in synergistic materials characterization. moreFeb. 02, 2011

EDAX Introduces Apollo Silicon Drift Detector Series for TEM

EDAX released the Apollo Silicon Drift Detector (SDD) Series for the transmission electron microscope (TEM). The series includes the Apollo XLT with a Super Ultra Thin Window (SUTW) and the Apollo XLTW, a windowless version. The windowless version further maximizes the collection efficiency and improves sensitivity up to 500% for low-energy X-rays. As a result, the mapping speed and light element detection in low concentrations are enhanced with the Apollo XLTW. moreDec. 23, 2009

Apollo SDD Series for EDS Analysis

EDAX has introduced the next series of Apollo SDD detectors for X-ray microanalysis. "While the Apollo Series offers a range of detector sizes and performance levels including a large-area SDD chip," notes Judy O'Loughlin, Director of Product Marketing for EDAX, "it emphasizes a more important feature, the positioning of the detectors close to the sample, making it comparable to the best-designed Si(Li) detectors. EDAX's Apollo Series offers users the best of both worlds. All SDDs are able to map at high resolution, and all SDDs can map at high count rates. moreDec. 18, 2009

To Change the Way You Do Analysis

With the implementation of Smart Features that provide Analytical Intelligence, the user can easily obtain quality and reliable results in no time. Smart features allow for optimal analysis set-up automatically selected by the system. These features include:
Smart Diagnostics: The Environment Panel (EP) monitors and reports on the operating conditions of the environment. Smart Diagnostics monitors the column, stage, detector, and magnification of the system. moreNov. 04, 2009

Another Generation of Micro X-Ray Fluorescence Spectrometer

EDAX has introduced the Orbis micro-XRF elemental analyzer system, setting a new standard in analytical flexibility. Building on more than 10 years of micro-XRF experience, the Orbis spectrometer incorporates a motorized turret that integrates video and X-ray optics allowing coaxial sample view and X-ray analysis.
Two additional X-ray collimators can be added to the optical turret for a total of three X-ray beam sizes to expand Orbis' analytical capabilities beyond traditional micro-XRF analysis. moreNov. 01, 2007
