Axia ChemiSEM

Smart SEM-EDS for Fast Elemental Analysis

The Thermo Scientific Axia ChemiSEM combines high-resolution SEM with integrated EDS for real-time quantitative elemental analysis. This next-generation system simplifies workflows with automated features like SmartAlign, eliminating manual adjustments and ensuring instant, accurate results.

Its spacious chamber handles large samples up to 10 kg, ideal for industrial components, while rapid pump-down enables faster loading. The tungsten-source SEM-EDS delivers reliable performance for materials research, failure analysis, and contaminant identification.

Designed for efficiency, the Axia ChemiSEM reduces training time with an intuitive interface and requires minimal maintenance. Live quantitative mapping provides immediate elemental data, accelerating time-to-results in quality control and R&D.

Perfect for both new and experienced users, the Axia ChemiSEM makes advanced microscopy accessible while improving productivity across applications.

Experience faster SEM-EDS analysis with the Axia ChemiSEM.
