SEM Solutions for Earth Sciences and Natural Resources
TESCAN TIMA is a dedicated solution for automated mineralogical analysis requirements in Earth sciences studies as well as industrial mineral processing. Now in its fourth generation, TESCAN TIMA has improved ease of use and delivers ultra-fast analysis to speed the time to trustworthy and reproducible data. Up to four EDS detectors work simultaneously to increase sample processing throughput, while TESCAN’s unique, high sensitivity spectral summing algorithm assures accurate quantification for low abundance elements. And TIMA data is easily correlated with other techniques for mineral characterization.
