XIM500 Inverted Metallurgical Microscope for Opaque Specimens

XIM500 Inverted Metallurgical Microscope for Opaque Specimens

XIM500 is an inverted metallurgical microscope designed for inspecting opaque specimens such as metals, ceramics, and electronic components. It features infinity-corrected LWD Plan objectives, a trinocular head with adjustable light distribution, and a mechanical stage with precise 0.1 mm scale. Illumination options include halogen and LED with 100V–240V input, and it supports bright-field, dark-field, and polarizing modes.

  • Inverted design allows inspection of large or thick opaque samples without obstruction
  • Infinity-corrected LWD Plan objectives ensure high image quality and consistent focus across magnifications
  • Trinocular head with 100:0 or 80:20 light distribution enables direct eyepiece viewing and camera integration
  • Mechanical stage with 50×50 mm movement range and 0.1 mm scale for accurate sample positioning
  • Supports bright-field, dark-field, and polarizing configurations with dedicated objectives and filters

Technical features

  • Trinocular head inclined 30°, interpupillary distance 48–76 mm
  • Quintuple nosepiece standard; quadplex nosepiece available for bright/dark field objectives
  • Mechanical stage size 210 mm × 180 mm, moving range 50 mm × 50 mm, scale 0.1 mm
  • Coaxial coarse and fine focusing: coarse stroke 10 mm, fine stroke per rotation 0.2 mm, division 2 μm
  • Polarizing unit with polarizer and analyzer included
  • Illumination: 12V/50W halogen (100V–240V input) or 5W LED (100V–240V input)
  • Filter options: blue, green, amber, grey
  • C-mount options: 1×, 0.75×, 0.5× with focus adjustment

Who it is for

  • Materials testing labs in manufacturing and R&D
  • Electronics and semiconductor production facilities requiring surface inspection
  • Importers sourcing inverted metallurgical microscopes for industrial clients
  • Distributors building a catalog for industrial and materials analysis equipment

Use guide

  • Select the standard (●) or optional (○) components based on inspection needs (e.g., dark-field, camera output)
  • Use the 100:0 light distribution for direct eyepiece viewing; 80:20 for camera integration
  • Choose 5×–50× LWD Plan objectives for general metallurgical inspection; 80×/100× for high-magnification detail
  • Use the mechanical stage with 0.1 mm scale for repeatable positioning in production or testing
