Why Choose LECO for Metallographic Imaging?
Streamlined Workflows
PAXIT and IA44 are scalable, complementary solutions that work seamlessly together to support the entire imaging workflow from high-resolution image capture, organization, and data management to advanced analysis and comprehensive report generation. Whether implemented independently or as an integrated platform, they provide a flexible, streamlined solution that can grow with your laboratory’s needs.
Effortless Reporting & Documentation
PAXIT and IA44 simplify the creation of professional, data-rich reports while integrating seamlessly with Microsoft Office applications (Word, Excel, and PowerPoint). PAXIT automatically populates Office templates with images, measurements, and annotations at the click of a button, streamlining documentation and reducing manual effort. Whether used independently or as part of a connected workflow, both solutions improve productivity, enhance data accessibility, and deliver consistent, polished reporting results.
Efficient Data Management
PAXIT and IA44 serve as centralized repositories for images, reports, and associated data, storing each file with rich metadata such as sample IDs, dates, operator information, and other user-defined attributes. Their Quick Search functionality, advanced database searching capabilities, and extensive image management and analysis toolsets make it easy to rapidly locate, review, organize, and work with retrieved images and related files, ensuring information remains accessible, traceable, and actionable.
Automated Analysis
Adding IA44’s advanced analysis capabilities to the PAXIT platform expands the workflow beyond image management to include automated metallographic evaluations such as grain sizing, nodularity, coating thickness, and other standards-based measurements. Together, PAXIT and IA44 deliver accurate, repeatable results through automated multi-field processing, scripting, and real-time image analysis, significantly increasing throughput while improving consistency and reducing the variability associated with manual methods.

How It Works
PAXIT and the IA44 combine to deliver a powerful, integrated imaging solution for metallographic laboratories. PAXIT lays the foundation with high-resolution image capture, intuitive organization, and basic measurement tools. It serves as a centralized database for managing visual data. The IA44 builds on that base with advanced metallographic analysis modules from automated grain sizing and nodularity measurements to multi-field image processing that seamlessly extends PAXIT’s capabilities without adding complexity.
Together, they streamline image acquisition through analysis, then generate reports into one cohesive platform. Users benefit from point-and-click simplicity and wizard-guided processes that make sophisticated analyses accessible at all skill levels. The modular, scalable design allows labs to start with a solo PAXIT system and upgrade to add features and workstations. With support for high-resolution imaging and multi-user network setups, the combined system boosts accuracy, consistency, and productivity while enhancing collaboration.
