“I’ve been using SEMTech Solutions refurbished Scanning Electron Microscopes for almost 9 years now… The image quality is comparable or sometimes better than some of the other SEMs on campus. Even better, their uptime usually exceeds the uptime of any other SEMs on campus… SEMTech Solutions’ new SEMView8000 has been way more useful than I thought it would… I’m extremely happy with the SEMs I’ve purchased from SEMTech Solutions and would recommend them to anyone looking for a good SEM.”
