How does Massbox characterize transition zones in functionally graded materials?

This breakthrough analysis using LALI-TOF-MS (Laser Ablation Laser Ionization Time of Flight Mass Spectrometry) shows compositional variations in functionally graded materials. In this example, the 50-micron resolution elemental mapping reveals a curved pattern caused by meltpool mixing in the 3D printing process.

This is game-changing for process control and failure analysis required by engineers, quality managers, materials scientists, and anyone pushing the boundaries of advanced manufacturing.
