This microscope is designed for studying the microstructures of metals, alloys, semiconductor materials and other opaque samples.
The inverted microscope design does not limit the size of the sample examined; only its weight is limited up to 2 kg. The sample to be analyzed must first be appropriately processed, then positioned on the stage with the surface of interest facing downwards.
The microscope performs three contrast techniques in reflected light: bright field, simple polarization and differential interference contrast.
/> The brightfield method allows for an authentic enlarged image of the object. Simple polarization removes reflection from metal surfaces and highlights polymers and other foreign elements. Differential interferential contrast colors the difference in height of an object, revealing its topography. The object of study will appear in relief.
The trinocular tube and the side port for the camera allow simultaneous connection to a monitor and a camera.
The microscope can be used in various fields (metallurgy, engineering , aerospace, nuclear and energy industries) as well as in research laboratories and technical universities.
Microscope head
Focal length of the tube: infinity (∞). When assembling the microscope, the user can rotate the optical tubes 180° and adjust the eye relief to adapt the instrument to their height. The instrument is equipped with a trinocular head.
The monitor must be housed in the third tube of the trinocular head, while the digital camera can be installed in the appropriate side port. The beam splitter on the trinocular head is 50/50 (open tube) or 100/0 (closed tube), while on the body it is 100/0 or 0/100.
Nosepiece nosepiece
The 5-objective nosepiece is installed on the stand, below the stage.
The nosepiece has a special DIC slider housing used with the differential interference contrast method with 5x, 10x and 20x.
Objectives
Plan achromatic objectives with long working distance are designed for bright field, simple polarization and differential interference contrast methods. For dark field microscopy, choose the Magus Metal V700 BD.
Focusing mechanism
The coaxial fine focus knobs (micrometer screw) and coarse (coarse screw) are positioned on both sides at the base of the microscope. The user can rest his hands on the table and assume a relaxed pose while observing. Sharpness adjustment is smooth and effortless.
On the right, there is the coarse focus fixing knob (coarse screw), for quick adjustment after changing the sample. On the left side, there is the tension adjustment wheel for focusing.
Mechanical stage
The object is moved by moving the stage along two axes. A round, rotatable plate with a hole with a diameter of 10 mm, 20 mm or 30 mm is installed in the center of the table. A specimen holder/slide holder is used to hold the observed object in place.
Light source
The bulb housing houses a halogen lamp 30 W. It has sufficient light intensity for objectives from 4x up to 100x, used for bright field, polarized light or differential interference contrast microscopy techniques. The halogen lamp emits light with a color temperature that guarantees greater comfort for the eyes.
Reflected light lighting
The lighting system makes it possible to set up the Köhler illumination. Aperture and field diaphragms are centered by default and do not require further adjustment. If necessary, the apertures can be adjusted using the centering screws. The light source is centered along three axes. The removable analyzer and polarizer are required for polarized light microscopy techniques. The polarizer rotates from 0° to 360°, while the analyzer is fixed.
The DIC prism slider is used with the differential interference contrast method with 5x, 10x and 20x objectives.
A set of filters can help modify color reproduction.
Accessories
The use of additional accessories improves the technical performance of the microscope. Eyepieces and objectives increase the magnification range. A digital camera transmits the observed image to a computer screen or monitor. Calibration slides help make measurements of observed objects.
