Metallurgical Microscopes
Our metallurgical microscopes support accurate microstructural evaluation from routine inspection to advanced analysis. The IM-3000B is an economical, durable option for everyday work, offering brightfield and polarized light with reliable plan achromatic optics. The IM-5000 expands capability with darkfield and Differential Interference Contrast (DIC) illumination for improved contrast and feature visibility. The new IM-7000 delivers the highest performance, combining advanced illumination modes with premium long working distance LM Plan S-APO objectives, ultra-wide field eyepieces, and LED illumination for exceptional resolution, color accuracy, and digital imaging performance.
