Scanning electron microscope software EM Flow Creator

for transmission electron microscopesfor researchacquisition

Overview
EM Flow Creator turns microscopy workflows into reusable recipes that any operator can run. It automates SEM and TEM procedures across applications to enable efficient, unattended operation and lets users focus on analysis and R&D rather than manual setup.

Key benefits

• Process sample batches through standardized runs without operator intervention
• Run unattended overnight or between shifts so instruments keep productive when staff are absent
• Extend access to non-specialists: predefined recipes allow less-experienced users to perform complex workflows
• Eliminate repetitive setup tasks so technicians have more time for imaging analysis and troubleshooting

How it works
EM Flow Creator provides an intuitive drag-and-drop visual recipe builder. Users assemble procedural blocks from a comprehensive library and sequence them to automate complex SEM/TEM workflows with no coding required.

Key capabilities

• Sophisticated logic: sequential execution, looping and conditional branching to enable dynamic responses to observations
• Intelligent image recognition and auto-centering to locate and target features of interest
• Broad compatibility: supports Hitachi SEM and TEM platforms
• Python scripting options for advanced customisation and specialised processes

Use cases & examples
Typical applications include lithium-ion battery analysis (automated observation of electrode materials), semiconductor device inspection (automated high-magnification cross-sectional workflows) and life-science sensing (automated electrode-gap sensor observation). These case studies show both routine imaging and demanding research workflows.
