Tabletop SEM — EM-40 / EM-40PE The EM-40 represents COXEM's latest addition to their expanding family of Tabletop SEMs. Equipped with ultra-fast 5th-generation signal processing technology, it delivers high-quality imaging at frame rates of up to 13 fps.

Tabletop SEM — EM-40 / EM-40PE

The EM-40 represents COXEM’s latest addition to their expanding family of Tabletop SEMs. Equipped with ultra-fast 5th-generation signal processing technology, it delivers high-quality imaging at frame rates of up to 13 fps. Four imaging modes — Fast, Slow, UltraFast, and Photo — allow the user to select the ideal balance of image quality and speed for their application.

The EM-40PE is a derivative of the EM-40 designed to accommodate large samples as well as standard 47 × 47 mm membrane filters. Combined with a compact EDS module and the Feature option, it delivers ideal performance for rapid, high-throughput particle analysis workflows.

Key Applications
