The TEM Wedge Tool is used to thin materials to electron transparency for TEM observation. The rear micrometer heads allow radial or axial (wedge) angle adjustments in the sample. Non-rotating micrometer heads are available to eliminate faceting of Delrin® feet.
The cross-sectioning and Pyrex® paddles attach using a cam-locking system (no tools needed), allowing quick, easy removal for sample inspection and exact repositioning throughout the polishing procedure. The small Pyrex® footprint reduces planarization time due to less surface area making contact with the abrasive.
