X-Ray Microscope Leasing for Labs

High-resolution, non-destructive 3D imaging—without tying up your budget. Lease the X-ray system that fits your workflow.

What Is an X-Ray Microscope?

X-ray microscopes use soft or hard X-rays to generate high-resolution images of internal sample structures without sectioning. They’re widely used in materials science, semiconductor analysis, geology, and biological research.

Why Lease an X-Ray Microscope?

X-ray microscopes enable non-invasive, nanoscale imaging of internal structures—but with X-ray sources, detectors, shielding, and environmental controls, they can be among the most capital-intensive imaging tools available.

Excedr offers flexible leasing options to help your lab access advanced X-ray microscopy technology—without the upfront financial strain.

Where Leasing an X-Ray Microscope Adds Value

X-ray microscopes offer high-resolution, non-destructive imaging of internal structures—ideal for materials science, failure analysis, and structural biology. But acquiring these advanced systems often requires significant capital investment and long procurement cycles.

Leasing can be a smart choice when:

  • You’re analyzing materials at the nanoscale—Access internal imaging without funding delays.
  • You’re scaling research or core facilities—Deploy high-performance systems without straining budgets.
  • You’re running complex assays or failure analysis—Upgrade quickly as detection or throughput needs grow.

Whether characterizing materials or exploring biological structure, leasing an X-ray microscope delivers advanced imaging—without capital roadblocks.
