The following topics can be found in this area:
surface decarburization , crystalline structure and
segregations
The represented examples don't have to lead to the
failure of the material in every case. These are merely examinations of structure anomalies,
which differs from the standard.
At the enlarged views a measuring function is available.
The measuring spots 1 and 2 get specified with the left mouse button and the distance
between them gets computed on base of the magnification scale. An optical measuring
point marking takes place on the screen by means of little measuring crosses. For the
use of the measuring function you must activate Javascript in your browser.
