Inverted Metallurgical Microscope - Binocular Metallographic Microscope - 10X-100X LWD, WF10X/18

The Master Science Inverted Metallurgical Microscope is a compact metallographic stand with a finite distance optical system and long working distance plan objectives from 10X to 100X. The optical coating gives a transmittance of at least 95%, and the 10X eyepiece carries a cross-hair scale for measurement.

A polarizer and analyzer plus green, blue and yellow filters are part of the illumination system of the Master Science Inverted Metallurgical Microscope. Higher-power objectives, a quintuple nosepiece, a photo/video attachment and grain size analysis software can be added as options.

Key Benefits

• Flat samples sit face-down:: the Master Science Inverted Metallurgical Microscope views the specimen from below the stage.
• Bright, clear image:: optical coating with at least 95% transmittance.
• Measure as you view:: eyepiece with cross-hair scale.
• Polarized light built in:: polarizer and analyzer supplied.
• Room to grow:: optional objectives, camera attachment and grain size software.

For LED illumination and semi-apochromatic objectives, see the Master Science LED inverted metallurgical microscope.

Common Problems This Microscope Solves

Routine metallography brings a few recurring obstacles.

• No scale in the field of view:: the cross-hair eyepiece provides one.
• Structures look alike in plain light:: the polarizer and analyzer add contrast.
• Results cannot be recorded:: an optional photo/video attachment is available.
• Grain size judged by eye:: optional software performs the analysis.
