With 40 years’ experience delivering electron microscopy solutions, high performance and excellent reliability is guaranteed.

Our expert engineers can work with you to identify the perfect EM equipment for your project and laboratory environment.

Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM)

Our exclusive supplier for SEM equipment and accessories is Hitachi High Tech, world-leading innovators in scanning electron microscopes for over 50 years.

We provide access to the full range of Hitachi High Tech equipment, ranging from tabletop and compact microscopes to very large specimen chamber SEMs. As a long-standing partner of Hitachi High Tech, we enjoy immediate access to the latest innovations across their long-standing EM product lines as soon as they are released.

Our Hitachi range delivers the highest resolution for scanning electron microscope images in the world (0.4nm at 30kV), plus access to revolutionary technology and techniques such as cold-field emission (CFE) scanning and intelligent filament technology (IFT). The maximum magnification of a scanning electron microscope in the Hitachi range reaches up to 3,000,000x. We offer a complete, single-source solution, no matter the scale of your imaging and analysis requirements.

We also offer scaled solutions for every project type, with a selection of powerful mid-range scanning electron microscopes and specialised machines.

Milexia specialise in identifying and configuring the perfect SEM equipment for your project, offering you complete performance in resolution, analytical capabilities, and application specific requirements without overspending.

Sample Preparation

Milexia is partnered with a range of leading suppliers across sample preparation for electron microscopy, allowing us to deliver optimal performance whatever your project requirements.

By choosing Milexia to supply your sample preparation accessories, you unlock flexible equipment configurations that draw on the best from a range of manufacturers. Our expert engineers will install and integrate your equipment, ensuring it works at exact specification for the duration of your use.
We serve a number of sample preparation categories:

UV cleaners - electron-microscopy

Cleaning

We supply UV cleaners, manufactured by Hitachi High Tech, for the removal of organic contaminants from sample surfaces for both SEM and TEM processes.

Our plasma cleaner equipment, distributed exclusively for IBSS, relies on plasma at low temperatures for removal of both organic and inorganic contaminants.

Surface modification

Surface modification

We provide a number of effective surface modification techniques for both scanning and transmission electron microscopy. Our dedicated supplier in this area is Quorum, a leader in surface modification equipment for EM.

We deliver sputter coaters for enhancing sample conductivity and preventing the charging of samples during SEM, as well as glow discharge for modification of sample surface characteristics.

Carbon evaporation technology is available for sample preparation across both SEM and TEM to deliver outstanding contrast and conductivity improvements.

Cryogenic Preparation and Observation

Cryogenic Preparation and Observation

Cryogenic techniques allow for impeccable sample preservation and suspension, allowing analysts to observe samples and their delicate structures in a native state, with minimal artefacts.

We deliver and integrate cryo preparation technology for SEM through our partner Quorum, enabling rapid freezing via liquid nitrogen.

Our supplier partner Simple Origin manufactures best-in-class cryo holders, designed specifically for all TEM brands and models.

electron microscopy specialised equipment

Specialised techniques

Our specialist sample preparation supplier Quorum also enable us to deliver critical point dying solutions, allowing preservation of fragile biological samples with liquid carbon dioxide for drying with minimal shrinkage.

We have two dedicated suppliers for a range of cameras for transmission electron microscopy. Through them you can access a wide range of configurations for mounting, suitable for any research application. Large image areas, high megapixel counts and dynamic ranges, and exceptional acquisition speeds of up to 384 fps ensure that you have high performance imagery for any process.
