Grain size analysis
Most commonly used in testing metal grain sizing, this suite of routines will not only show size, shape and distribution. It will also show volume percentage of alpha grains, aspect ratio and orientaion of different phases, minimum and maximum grain length and intercepts and boundaries.
Phase analysis
These routines have been developed to determine phase area percentage within various particles, for example, of fine, medium and coarse magnesium silicide particles in aluminium. Dual phases in materials can be distinguished, measured and banded according to recognised standards. Measurable parameters include: area, length, perimeter, mean, horizontal and vertical chord, area percentage, count, density and aspect ratio.
Particle analysis
The particle sizing package is designed for use with a wide range of particles including bubbles, fibres, rough particles, blood cells, smooth particles, spheres in liquids and spheres.
Parameters include: area, count, circumference, diameter, length, width, feret average, sphericity, roundness and aspect ratio.
Layer thickness analysis
The layer thickness package accurately measures multiple layers of both similar and differing types along with depth.distribution.
Parameters include: length, mean width and mean vertical chord.
