Effective methods for purchasing microscopes
Question 1: What is the sample you want to observe before purchasing?
Because microscopes are classified according to their functions, there are generally polarizing microscopes, metallographic microscopes, biological microscopes, stereoscopic microscopes and so on. Different functional microscopes have different usages. For example, polarizing microscope is mainly used in geological ore research and structural analysis, observing the structural details of crystal inclusions, nerve fibers, animal muscles and plant fibers of teeth, bones, hair and living cells, and analyzing the denaturation process. Metallographic microscope is mainly used to observe, identify and analyze the internal structure of various opaque materials such as metals. Suitable for factories and mines, universities and scientific research departments. Biological microscope is mainly used for diagnosis, laboratory test, teaching and research in health field, schools and scientific research units. Therefore, before purchasing, you should find out what the sample you want to observe, so that the merchant can recommend you a suitable microscope.
Question 2: What is the budget?
Because there are domestic and imported microscopes, under the same function, imported microscopes are generally more expensive than domestic microscopes. If the budget is not high, domestic microscopes can also be considered. In fact, many domestic microscopes have greatly improved their optical performance. If they are not used in very research, domestic microscopes can also meet the requirements.
Question 3: Do you need a digital imaging device?
Because now the digital microscope has become a big selling point in the microscope industry, it can realize synchronous preview in the computer, and can save microscopic pictures in the computer, and can modify and edit these microscopic pictures, which is of great help to microscope users. In general, we still recommend the optional digital imaging device.
Question 4: What kind of effect do you want to achieve? How many times to enlarge, etc.
Nowadays, many enterprises will use microscopes in product quality testing, but microscope salespeople may not all know customers' products. Therefore, the purchaser can put forward his own requirements with the supplier, such as how many times to enlarge, whether the surface cracks of the product can be seen, or whether the internal structure of the product needs to be seen, and so on, that is, what kind of effect needs to be achieved.
Question 5. What kind of ancillary services do you want?
The microscope industry pays great attention to technical services, and the pre-sales and after-sales services must be in place, otherwise, it will be a very problem for microscope buyers. There are also related terms of service such as delivery date, payment method, installation or not, which are all worth explaining.
