Ilion III System

The Ilion^® III broad beam argon milling system is a tabletop tool designed to deliver consistent, high‑quality cross‑section milling for a broad range of materials found in industrial laboratory environments. It enables efficient preparation of complex, heterogeneous, and fragile samples while preserving true microstructural detail.

• High‑quality cross‑section milling: Produces clean, damage‑free cross‑sections across a wide range of materials, including difficult and multiphase samples.
• High‑throughput material removal: Accelerates access to depth with milling rates of up to 800 µm/h, reducing time to analysis.
• Wide energy range (0.1 – 10 kV): Enables rapid high‑energy milling for efficient preparation and low‑energy operation for smooth, low‑damage surfaces.
• Reveals more structural detail: ±45° high‑angle sector milling provides a broader analysis area with reduced curtaining, exposing more structural information.
• Controllable, predictable results: Real‑time process visibility allows users to monitor milling progress and adjust with confidence.
