Buying an Upright or Inverted Microscope
Metallographic microscope, also known as material microscope, is mainly used to observe the structure of metal tissue, which can be divided into upright metallographic microscope and inverted metallographic microscope
The upright metallographic microscope forms a positive image during observation, which brings great convenience to the user's observation and identification. In addition to the analysis and identification of metal samples with a height of 20-30mm, it is in line with people's daily habits. , so it is more widely used in transparent, translucent or opaque substances. Observation objects larger than 3 microns and less than 20 microns, such as cermets, electronic chips, printed circuits, LCD substrates, films, fibers, granular objects, coatings and other material surface structures and traces, can have good imaging effects. In addition, the external camera system can be easily connected to the video screen and computer for real-time and static and dynamic image observation, storage, editing, printing, combined with various software to meet the needs of more professional metallography, measurement, and interactive teaching fields. Inverted metallographic microscope uses the method of optical plane imaging to identify and analyze the structure of various metals and alloys. It is an important tool for metallographic research in metallography. It can be widely used in factories or laboratories for casting quality and raw material inspection. , or the research and analysis of metallographic structure of materials after process treatment, so as to provide intuitive analysis results, it is the key equipment for quality identification and analysis of casting, smelting, and heat treatment in mining, metallurgy, manufacturing, and mechanical processing industries.
In recent years, the microelectronics industry needs high-magnification planar microscopy to support chip production. Therefore, metallographic microscopes have been introduced into this field for promotion and use, and are being continuously improved to meet the special needs of the industry. Inverted metallurgical microscope, because the observation surface of the sample coincides with the surface of the workbench downwards, and the observation objective lens is located under the workbench to observe upwards, this observation form is not limited by the height of the sample, it is easy to use, the instrument is compact in structure, and Beautiful and elegant, the base of the inverted metallographic microscope has a large supporting area, the center of gravity is low, stable and reliable, the eyepiece and the supporting surface are inclined at 45°C, making observation comfortable.
