Observing metal microstructures with EBSD allows for smooth consideration of material selection and changes.
Electron Backscatter Diffraction Pattern (EBSD) allows for the following when combined with a Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM): - Separation of phases with different crystal systems - Distribution ratio and crystal orientation analysis for each separated phase In this case, we introduce "metal microstructure observation of wire (spring material) using EBSD." We investigated the changes in metal microstructure during the processing of spring material (drawing with a diameter of Φ1.00mm and 0.07mm) and confirmed that the metal microstructure changes after drawing. This measurement technique is very useful for selecting metal materials and comparing during material changes. We encourage you to give it a try. Additionally, our company conducts various cross-sectional analyses using TEM and surface analysis using XPS, allowing for multifaceted analytical assessments. Both sales and technical staff are available to assist directly, so please feel free to consult with us. Seiko Future Creation Official Website https://www.seiko-sfc.co.jp/
