EM TXP Cross-Sectioning Device
EM TXP is a mechanical cross-sectioning device that precisely downsizes samples for visual inspection. With EM TXP you can optimize sample pre-preparation to minimize ion beam milling time and ensure creation of mirror-like surfaces for light microscopy inspection.
For research use only
Buried structures prepared for broad ion beam milling
Multi-tool capabilities offer the right accessory for each process step, precisely honing in on your area of interest, and accurately positioning tool rotation and tilt angle.
Precise pre-cutting uncovers structures buried in the sample and shortens ion beam milling time by removing unwanted material.

Simply bring your sample through the workflow
Multi-tool capabilities offer the right accessory for each process step, precisely honing in on your area of interest, and accurately positioning tool rotation and tilt angle.
Increase efficiency and reduce handling steps with sample support compatibility. Use the same holder for EM TXP and EM TIC 3X for the whole surface preparation workflow. Keeping consistent sample mounting and orientation through the entire preparation process decreases the risk of sample damage and misalignment.
