Back to Top The Model D500i DimpleR® has become an indispensable tool for TEM
specimen preparation. Th dimpling technique, applicable to a myriad of
material types, yields a higher quality specimen with a broader, near electron
transparent area which reduces ion milling times. The Model D500i®
automates the dimpling technique so that the most demanding specimens
can be dimpled to 10 microns routinely and repeatably. Real time
measurement of tool height, specimen thickness, and tool runout allow the
user to precisely control the dimpling process. With the proper tooling and
parameter adjustment, the dimpling technique with the D500i can be
completed with ease.
