The problem
In almost every lab where there is a a microscope, there is a need to document images. But the needs varies largely for different labs and organizations. In the easiest case you probably just want to capture one or a few images, save it to file, and later use them in some kind of report. In the more advanced scenario, you might have requirement to document all samples analyzed, with thousands or even hundred of thousands images per year.
Almost certainly you want to share your images with others and even with other labs or departments in your organization.
Our products can do all the above. This article is to explain which products might suit you best.
Grain Size MODULE
Measure GRAIN SIZE
Compute average grain size and ASTM G-value according to ASTM E112 using the intercept method.
Grain boundaries are detected automatically via AI — including materials with twins — or manually using point-clicking.
The software accumulates results across multiple fields, notifies you when enough fields have been measured for a statistically reliable result, and reports a grand total fully compliant with the ASTM standard.
Key Features
● ASTM E112 Compliant
Full standard compliance for intercept method — linear and circular patterns.
● AI Grain Boundary Detection
Automatic segmentation supports equiaxed grains and materials with twins such as austenitic steel.
● Multiple Grid Patterns
Vertical, horizontal, random, clockwise and circular intercept lines — ideal for rolled or anisotropic materials.
● Multi-field Accumulation
Measure across as many fields as needed. Running grand total updates after each field.
● Statistical Reliability Indicator
Software notifies you when sufficient fields have been measured for a reliable result per ASTM guidelines.
● Reporting
Create stunning reports that follows the ASTM-112 standard. Customize to your liking.
