Overview Electron Microscopy Flow Creator converts microscopy workflows into repeatable, operator-run recipes. It supports routine unattended batch imaging and complex research sequences while requiring no programming skills.

Key benefits

• Process sample batches through standardized recipes without operator intervention
• Run unattended overnight or between shifts to increase instrument uptime
• Enable non-specialist users to execute predefined workflows safely
• Reduce repetitive setup so staff can focus on analysis and troubleshooting

How it works
EM Flow Creator provides a drag-and-drop recipe builder. Users assemble procedural blocks from a library into a sequenced recipe, defining acquisition steps, conditions and transitions without coding.

Key capabilities

• Execution logic: supports sequential execution, loops and conditional branching
• Intelligent image recognition: algorithms locate features and auto-centre the field of view
• Platform compatibility: available for Hitachi SEM and TEM instruments
• Extensibility: optional Python scripting for custom routines and advanced control

Typical observation workflow and case studies
Included examples demonstrate automated workflows for lithium-ion battery analysis, semiconductor inspection and bio-sensing/life sciences, covering multi-magnification imaging, sequential procedures and automated feature finding.
