We see from your search that you're looking for information on the term "Microscopy",
and we have a large number of manufacturers' news releases and technical articles here on Manufacturingtalk which will be of interest.
Let me be your guide.
Start with
the news release Crystal orientations analysed speedily, accurately from
Thermo Fisher Scientific, which we summarised at the time by saying "Advanced orientation imaging microscopy is for analyzing crystal orientations in materials and provides a sophisticated combination of speed, accuracy and flexibility in production
environments".
A couple of weeks before,
we featured the news release 'Hexapods' to simplify complex positioning from
PI (Physik Instrumente): "'Hexapod' 6-axis precision parallel kinematics systems replace a stacked series of stages, as describd in a brochure that also includes positioners and robots featuring sub-micrometer resolution".
In August 2007, we covered the news from Nikon UK
concerning its INEXIV VMA-2520 3D video measuring system
- take a look at 3D video uprates laser machining service
which says: "An innovative micro and nano-engineering centre has become the first UK site to order a precision 3D video measuring system to improve a laser micromachining service".
Take a look also at the news release from Carl Zeiss, Latest cameras will oust complex video types,
as well as Industrial cameras are highly responsive from Scorpion Vision,
and Ironless linear positioners are low-cost from Parker Electromechanical Automation USA.
