Carl Zeiss X-ray Microscopy, formerly Xradia Inc., Thorn-

wood, N.Y., announced that Toshiba Nanoanalysis Corp.,

Kawasaki, Japan, selected the ZEISS Xradia 520 Versa

x-ray microscope

(XRM) to expand its analysis lab’s capa-

bilities. The microscope was designed for

studying hard-to-image materials and the

evolution of their microstructures within

industrial and scientific laboratory envi-

ronments. It extends the boundaries of

nondestructive 3D imaging in situ and in

4D (over time) with advanced contrast

tuning capabilities, extensive filtering options, and en-

hancements delivering greater accuracy and workflow ef-

ficiency.

For production environments that require quality and re-

peatability, AbrasiMatic 450 from Buehler, Lake Bluff, Ill., is

a fully automated 18-in. (455 mm)

abrasive cutter

that de-

livers consistent results. It comes fully equipped with 3-axis

motion and a full suite of advanced cutting features that

save time and protect the integrity of the cut surface. With

both

and

wheel motion and

table motion, larger sam-

ples can be easily sectioned, while serial cutting can be

programmed and recalled for repeated use. New capabili-

ties allow users to secure methods with a PIN, preventing

accidental changes or deletion.

EOS of North America, Novi, Mich., expanded its

powder

metal materials

portfolio with EOS Titanium Ti64ELI and

EOS StainlessSteel 316L to open up new fields of applica-

tion for components fabricated by laser sintering of powder

metals. Ti64ELI provides high-detail resolution while Stain-

lessSteel 316L features high ductility for medical applica-

tions such as surgical instruments and orthopedics. Parts

built in EOS Titanium Ti64 have a chemical composition and

mechanical properties corresponding to ASTM F136, and

parts built from EOS StainlessSteel 316L have a chemical

composition corresponding to ASTM F138.
