This is not your father's SEM
This week on Tech Corner we look at the JEOL NeoScope (JCM-7000) scanning electron microscope from Nikon Metrology. Auto functions, stage automation, and software enable easy sample imaging and elemental analysis.
The new RS6 Laser Scanner for the Absolute Arm makes 3D laser scanning better and easier than ever. Built on innovative SHINE technology that allow it to measure almost any surface using its default exposure settings, the RS6 makes the collection of high-quality data both fast and simple. It’s still laser scanning, but better.

Tech Corner: Nikon SMZ 1270i Stereo Microscope
We look at the SMZ 1270i stereo microscope, which offers a wide viewfield at low magnification, enabling easy confirmation of observation targets,while its cutting-edge optics provide bright and sharp images through the entire viewfield.
Data collection happens throughout the work day but how do the critical measurements get stored and analyzed? We review some manual as well as automated techniques that can help ensure the data collected is reliable.

This week: A close look at the Olympus DSX1000 Digital Microscope
We look at a new digital microscope from Olympus. The DSX1000 boasts a 20–7,000X magnification range and the ability to instantly switch between six observation methods. A fast motorized optical zoom lets you optically zoom in and out by simply turning the dial on the console. Advanced algorithms enable you to capture high-resolution 3D images just by pushing a button.
Gages are found throughout manufacturing facilities. We discuss key identifiers that should be present on effective gage labels and stickers.
