Compact Smart-Clip metallographic mount holders for SEM
EM-Tec compact Smart-Clip metallographic mount holders have been specifically designed for compact and table-top SEMs and for high-tilt applications. They have a low weight, minimal diameter and allow for very high tilt angles – close to 90 degrees. The metallographic or metallurgical mount is held by four copper S-Clips which clamp the side of the mount. If embeddings are non-conductive, a grounding path can be easily made with one of the copper S-Clips.
The lightweight, low profile design only adds around 2mm to the diameter of the mount, thus allowing for high tilt without interfering with detectors under the pole-piece of the SEM.
TEM-Tec compact Smart-Clip metallographic mount holders are suitable for mounts with a height of 10mm or more. They can also be used as an adaptor on SEMs using pin stubs for holding cylindrical sample stubs from JEOL and Hitachi with diameters of 25m or 32mm and a height of 10mm or more.
