WEBINAR | Up to 40% Faster Automated TEM Lamella Preparation with new Ga⁺ FIB Column

Accelerating the Art of Discovery

Tescan builds imaging and analysis tools that help scientists push the boundaries of what’s possible. From powerful electron microscopes to advanced micro-CT and FIB solutions, we design systems that make complex research clearer, faster,
and more intuitive.

Who We Are

Tescan is more than an instrument manufacturer. We’re a global team of engineers, scientists, designers, and application experts — building advanced imaging instruments and the solutions around them.

For over 30 years, we’ve helped scientists see deeper with advanced SEM,
micro-CT, and now 4D-STEM technologies — like our TENSOR platform, the first transmission electron microscope built from the ground up for 4D performance.

We design with real workflows in mind — from materials science and geosciences to life sciences and semiconductors — ensuring every system is intuitive, application-ready, and fully supported throughout its lifecycle.

Our Aspiration

Is to empower our customers and partners with instruments, software and service fit for the future. By transforming complex technologies into intuitive, human-centric solutions, we aim to equip the world with what it needs to move faster, think deeper, and accelerate our collective discovery.

Our Approach

Is to remove the complexity and friction between question and discovery. We’re working towards a world without the barriers that have long stood in front of scientists - so they can spend less time fighting systems, and more time moving science forward.

Our Drivers

We value collaboration, forward thinking, and outcomes that truly make a difference, from the every day to the big discoveries. We believe the best solutions come from working closely - across teams, disciplines, and with our partners. We’re not afraid to challenge convention or rethink what’s possible, because progress demands it. And we always put experience first, designing tools that feel intuitive, human, and built for the way scientists actually work.

Building partnerships

to encourage research

Headquartered in Brno, Czech Republic - where we began in 1991 - Tescan now supports researchers in over 80 countries through a network of subsidiaries, offices, and partners. We’re proud to stay close to our roots while operating globally, wherever science needs us.

Partnerships That Power Discovery

To move research forward
We are proud to stand alongside our trusted partners, whose expertise and dedication help us bring Tescan’s cutting-edge technologies to scientists and innovators around the world. Together, we empower research, advance discovery, and shape the future of science.

The Tescan Collaboration Network

The Tescan Collaboration Network is a global community of advanced users who share access to their instruments and the knowledge that comes with them. Members give others in the network access to their systems, creating a shared resource built on trust and mutual support. Members also contribute to beta testing, join our events, and share their results to help shape the future of our technology. It’s not just a network - it’s how we build a more collaborative scientific community.

Our story

Tescan began in Brno, Czech Republic - a global hub for electron optics - with a clear goal: to make high-performance imaging more accessible to researchers everywhere. Today, we deliver more than instruments. We design complete solutions, systems, workflows, and supportservices that fit how scientists actually work. While the specs are important, we believe that user experience is key to enabling discovery, anddiscovery and turning partnership into progress.

From Tesla to Tescan

Tescan was born in Brno, Czech Republic, where a legacy of electron optics was already part of the city’s DNA. Founded by former engineers from the Tesla factories (one of the world’s first leading electron microscope hubs), the mission was simple but ambitious. Build world-class imaging systems that were easier to use and more accessible to the researchers who needed them most.
