Unlike most other metallurgical microscopes this model comes with both reflected (EPI) and transmitted illuminations as well as a 5MP true color digital image camera. It is an ideal instrument for metallurgical mineral and crystal identification. It is also a great microscopy system for viewing transparent materials including those in biological applications. This microscope offers eight magnification settings (40X 80X 100X 200X 400X 800X 1000X and 2000X). It comes with a 30 degree inclined 360 degree rotatable trinocular head coarse & fine focusing mechanical stage and halogen EPI-illumination and transmitted illumination system. The digital camera captures still images and video and allows you to view a live stream on your PC. With software available for Windows Mac and Linux it s a multi-platform imaging solution. The included Windows software offers image-development and measurement tools as well as advanced compositing features such as image-stitching and extended-depth-of-focus. Independent preview and capture resolutions allow you to view high-speed video while capturing high-definition images. For Mac and Linux there is a lite version with limited processing features. This is an excellent metallurgical microscopy system for a variety of industrial and research applications including metallurgical labs silicon wafer inspection industrial Inspection quality control and foundries.
