KEY FEATURES OF CLEMEX VISION ANALYSIS SOFTWARE

Universal Grain size analysis

With the AI Plugin “GrainSeg”, segmenting even the most difficult images is fast and reliable. You can analyze copper alloys, austenitic steels or titanium alloys containing twins and it supports all methods of the ASTM-E112 standard.

CUSTOMIZE YOUR ANALYSIS

Detect, characterize and measure phases or objects of interest using our extensive instruction library. You can easily combine any set of instructions and create your own routine.

MARTENSITIC GRAIN SIZE INSTRUCTION

The powerful Martensitic functionality is inserted at the beginning of an automated image analysis routine to detect the boundaries of grains. Several parameters allow the user to fine-tune detection.

POWERFUL PROCESS AUTOMATION

Quicker analysis time is made possible with this robust software capable of processing thousands of images and generating data all day long without human intervention.

TRACEABLE DATA

Validate detected features and delete artifacts across multiple fields using the Map and Go function. Object data in the built-in spreadsheet are dynamically linked to the actual position of the objects on the sample.

ANALYSIS PROPERTIES

Information from property fields can be automatically inserted into reports, file names or folder names. Use standard properties such as Magnification, Date or Sample Name or create custom fields.

AUTOMATED REPORTING

Reports are generated automatically after each analysis and can be adapted to suit your needs. Add a company logo, images captured during analysis, graphs and statistics, and save your results as a csv, xlsx or pdf file.

MOSAIC IMAGE STITCHING

Clemex Vision software automatically stitches multiple fields to form a seamless composite image of the whole sample which can then be analyzed and saved. This function can be used with a manual or motorized stage.

CFR 21 PART 11 COMPLIANCE

With the User Management module, administrators can add users, create user groups, and trace events in the audit trail. This optional module allows electronic signature embedding and is secure and reliable.

MORE FEATURES

ACCURATE DETECTION
Detect objects that are difficult to distinguish because of their their transparency, low contrast or faint outlines.
CLASSIFY OBJECTS
Isolate objects using any measurement type (length, width, aspect ratio, roughness, etc.).
CONDITIONAL INSTRUCTIONS
Analyze objects that meet certain criteria, such as size, shape or orientation.

DIRECT MEASURES & ANNOTATIONS
Annotate your images on-the-fly during your analysis; include results and visuals in reports.
EXTENDED DEPTH OF FIELD
Obtain a sharp composite image made up of several image slices, perfect for uneven surfaces.
EXTERNAL DEVICE CONTROL
Activate external devices such as valves, locking devices, alarms, lights.
IMAGE OPTIMIZATION
Shading correction, auto-exposure, white balance, auto-focus, parfocality and paraxiality for each magnification.
MOTORIZED STAGE CONTROL
Controlled through the software, scanning regions can be defined using pre-built templates.

NIST-TRACEABLE CALIBRATION
Eliminate operator subjectivity by automatically calibrating each lens using a NIST-traceable micrometer.
SEPARATE OBJECTS
Separate adjacent objects automatically prior to performing measurements.
SCAN REGION AUTOMATION
Automated stage pattern creation based on detected objects or sample reference points.
THIRD PARTY IMAGES
Import images from various sources, such as SEMs or scanners.
