Summary
Machine-generated summaryThe Technical University of Denmark (DTU), through its Space institute's Measurement and Instrumentation Systems division, is procuring a desktop scanning electron microscope (SEM) for its Destructive Physical Analysis laboratory. The instrument will be used for topography imaging and chemical analysis of metallographic samples, chiefly non-conductive, mechanically polished epoxy moulds containing cross-sectioned electronic components and assemblies. DTU seeks a compact, robust and stable SEM that is ready to operate around the clock, requiring minimal maintenance and simple to run after short training.
