AMETEK EDAX, a leader in X-ray microanalysis and electron diffraction instrumentation,
collaborated with AMETEK Vision Research, a leading provider of ultra-high-speed cameras,
to launch the Velocity™ Super – the world’s fastest Electron Backscatter Diffraction (EBSD)
camera. Powered by CMOS sensors developed by AMETEK Vision Research, the EDAX
Velocity Super offers a superior solution, solving materials characterization and elemental
composition challenges in both research and industrial applications. For their collaborative
effort, EDAX and Vision Research won the inaugural AMETEK Innovation Award for
developing this groundbreaking technology.

AMETEK Creaform, a leader in 3D measurement technology, received two Red Dot
awards for the innovative product design of their new HandySCAN BLACK and Go!SCAN
SPARK metrology products. The next-generation HandySCAN BLACK was optimized to
provide highly accurate and repeatable 3D measurement results, particularly in difficult
environments and with complex surfaces. The Go!SCAN SPARK offers the fastest and most
user-friendly 3D scanning experience, allowing customers improved product development
processes and shorter time to market.

AMETEK CAMECA, the world leader in atom probe tomography, launched their EIKOS-UV
atom probe microscope. The EIKOS-UV delivers nanoscale structural information, enabling
a new understanding of materials for research and faster development of products for
industrial applications. This new product complements CAMECA’s LEAP 5000 atom probe,
which provides the fastest, most sensitive 3D imaging and analysis system with nanoscale
resolution across a wide range of applications.
