Send us your metallic or ceramic sample(s) and we will perform metallographic
imaging for you. This service is priced between $50 and $200, depending on the required
preparation of the samples, which typically involves sectioning, grinding, electro-polishing,
casting and processing in an appropriate
metallographic etchant.
We follow the preparation
procedures recommended in "ASM Handbook: Volume 9: Metallography And Microstructures".
Please contact us for a quote.
In addition to microstructural features, we can also image
unusually large features by mosaicing. Imaging is done
using our inverted, EPI-illuminated optical microscope
equipped with an X-Y stage.
Images are captured at maximum magnification of 1250x,
and maximum resolution of 3008x2000 pixels per frame.
