EDAX Launches OIM 2000, 4000 And 7000 Systems For Electron Backscatter Diffraction (EBSD)



March 2003

Mahwah, NJ - EDAX Inc - a leader in X-ray microanalysis, X-ray fluorescence and electron diffraction instrumentation - introduces the next generation of Electron Backscatter Diffraction (EBSD) Systems - the OIM 2000, OIM 4000 and OIM 7000.
"EDAX is pleased to offer a new range of EBSD systems. Our TSL products already are widely regarded as the leading edge in EBSD analysis," explains Del Redfern, Micro Characterization Tools Product Manager for EDAX. "We have continually improved the functionality and enhanced the usability features of our systems. Our OIM systems represent the next logical evolution of our products."

"There is a need for a variety of systems in the EBSD marketplace from introductory analytical packages to high-end advanced research level systems. Our OIM 2000, 4000 and 7000 systems are designed to meet the needs of a wide range of EBSD users," notes Redfern.

"The OIM 2000/4000/7000 Series includes state of the art EBSD cameras, fast and accurate data collection, and analysis software that provides a wide range of tools for characterizing crystalline microstructures," he adds.

"The release of the OIM Series also coincides with the release of ChI-Scan - an application that takes advantage of simultaneously collected EDS and EBSD data to more accurately handle multi-phase samples. With ChI-Scan and other optional applications, we are able to build a system that meets users' current requirements and offers an upgrade path for future expansion," comments Redfern.
