Materials Science and Failure Analysis
Conventional microscopy inspects the surface optically with light microscopes and is limited by the microscope’s depth of focus. Quantitative surface information must be obtained by a separate 2D or 3D surface analysis instrument. Since specimens in material development often contain fractured surfaces with steep flanks or rough surface topography, InfiniteFocus® offers a unique solution to document the entire surface.
The analysis of the optical appearance of the surface coupled with the topographic data is directly correlated to the reconstructed 3D color image.
The analysis of the optical appearance of the surface coupled with the topographic data is directly correlated to the reconstructed 3D color image. Fatigue fracture analysis and material deformation at ductile fracture zones can be easily quantified through volumetric, area, or profile measurements directly on the true color image.
