MT5000EH EBSD Tensile Stage with Heating

Deben MT5000EH: a 5 kN dual-motor tensile and compression stage for in-situ SEM and EBSD, with heating to 1000 °C.

Key features

EBSD and SEM imaging
Optimised for both EBSD at a 70° pre-tilt and horizontal SEM imaging, with flat samples in either position.
Live observation
Watch slip bands, strain marks, dislocations and crystalline defects in the SEM while the sample is loaded.
Heating to 1000 °C
Heater with water cooling (chiller included) and a standalone controller.
Control
Deben Test Suite software.
Dual motor
Jaws move independently or together.
Jaws
User-exchangeable flat jaws and 70° tilt EBSD jaws, with a clear line of sight to the SEM lens and EBSD detector.
