Heated stage microscope
Melting and solidification processes can be observed in situ using the hot stage microscope. A near-infrared camera can also be used to create videos of the phase transformation processes. The sample is located in a special process chamber, which can be evacuated using a turbomolecular pump. Alternatively, inert or reactive gas atmospheres can also be set.

Description of the system
With this system, metallic solidification processes can be observed in situ using thermographic microscopy. The system basically consists of a high-vacuum chamber in which the sample is heated, microscope optics and a thermographic camera that operates in the near-infrared range. Wetting angles of samples with a geometry of up to Ø 2 mm can also be determined.
Technical details:
- Heating of samples up to 900 °C in high vacuum possible
- Non-contact temperature measurement at microscopic level
- Control, monitoring and evaluation of the tests via measuring PC
