3D Visualization Software Hitachi map 3D
Three-dimensional models allow Z-height Measurements
Using Hitachi' s latest high speed, 4-segment Backscattered Electron Detector, a three-dimensional model can be generated without sample tilting or manually collecting consecutive images.
- Directly edits on the flexible layout display.
- Supports various measurements such as height, area, and volume as well as ISO-compliant□surface roughness.
- Automated and traceable analysis workflow including report creation.
Features
Hitachi map 3D Software Overview
Hitachi map 3D generates three-dimensional images without sample/stage tilting or image shift.
Hitachi map 3D captures all four directional images simultaneously with a high-speed, segmented Backscattered Electron Detector (BSED).
Flexible Profile Analysis
Automatically collects data from the sample surface or cross-sectional profile for surface roughness and structural height, or makes various measurements between the 2 points.
- Cross-sectional profile display from any points within the 3D map
-
Measurement location can be selected freely from vertical, horizontal, and diagonal points from the 3D image.
Whenever the measurement location is changed, the measurement results respond in real time.
- Height and angle measurements are possible on the user defined line profile.
-
X, Y, and Z analysis between 2 points on the surface or cross section.
Distance, Z-height, slope, or angle can be measured between 2 points on the 3D map image.
High-definition 3D Image Display
- Numerous 3D rendering modes are user selectable for surface characterization. Animations can be applied to the 3D image and saved as a video file.
Sample：Screw
A Wealth of Report and Measurement Functions
- Surface and line profile roughness measurements can be made on any area of the 3D reconstructed image.
- Any sample results before and after the processing can be simultaneously displayed side by side on a report layout.
Various Output Formats Supported
- Report data can be output to several formats including RTF (Word-compatible), PDF, and more.
- Three-dimensional reconstruction data can be output in txt, STL format (3D printer compatible), and more.
Full-Featured Help Function in Multiple Languages
- The help function describes the formulas used for each measurement mode.
- Available in 11 languages.
