Why Choose This Model

Professional inverted platform

The inverted stage keeps larger specimens stable during routine and higher-detail inspection.

Imported High-Quality Optical System

Infinity optics produce high-contrast images for material evaluation and documentation.

Brightfield and darkfield choice

Met IB is the brightfield configuration, while Met IBD adds darkfield capability.

Production laboratory fit

Used in foundry, steel, heat-treatment and production quality-control laboratories.

Key Technical Features

Optical System

Imported High-Quality Optical System with infinity plan achromatic objectives.

Observation Modes

Met IB uses brightfield observation. Choose Met IBD when the inspection also requires darkfield.

Magnification

Configured for metallurgical observation up to approximately 1000x magnification.

Stage

Larger stage approx. 242 x 200 mm with approx. 30 x 30 mm travel.

Viewing Tube

The trinocular tube accepts a camera for image records and analysis.

Nosepiece

The quintuple nosepiece keeps five objectives available during inspection.

Typical Applications

Foundry Laboratories

Prepared casting samples reveal graphite form and matrix structure under reflected light.

Steel

A practical use of the professional inverted metallurgical microscope configuration for prepared material examination.

Heat Treated Components

Helps operators review microstructural response after heat treatment on properly prepared sections.

Castings

Prepared casting samples reveal graphite form and matrix structure under reflected light.

Forgings

A practical use of the professional inverted metallurgical microscope configuration for prepared material examination.

Phase Analysis

Stable optics keep prepared microstructures in focus while representative fields are captured.

Quality Control

Fits repeatable shop-floor or laboratory checks where straightforward sample handling matters.
