GHEXA-A13.2606 Inverted Metallurgical Microscope (Reflected Light)

The GHEXA-A13.2606 is a professional inverted metallurgical microscope optimized for reflected light observation of opaque samples, including metals, alloys, semiconductors, ceramics, coatings, and polished metallographic specimens. Its inverted design provides generous working space and eliminates the need for cover slips, allowing direct examination of bulky, irregular, or mounted samples. It features a trinocular head for simultaneous visual observation and digital imaging, wide-field WF10x/22mm eyepieces with one including a 0.1mm reticle for precise measurements, a quintuple nosepiece carrying long working distance infinity plan semi-apochromat objectives (5x, 10x, 20x, 50x) for flat, high-contrast, color-corrected imaging, a large three-layer mechanical stage (210×180mm with 50×50mm travel) for smooth and accurate positioning of heavy or large specimens, and coaxial coarse and fine focusing for effortless, precise control. This robust, high-performance model is perfectly suited for metallography, quality control, failure analysis, and materials inspection in industrial, pharmaceutical, biotech, university, and research laboratories.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

Q: Why choose an inverted design for metallurgical microscopy? A: The inverted configuration provides ample clearance between the objective and specimen, allowing direct observation of large, bulky, or irregularly shaped samples (e.g., machined parts, castings, wafers) without cover slips or complex mounting—ideal for industrial and QC applications.

Q: What is the maximum magnification of the GHEXA-A13.2606? A: It delivers up to 500× total magnification with the 50× objective and 10× eyepiece (expandable to 1000× with optional 100× objective if oil immersion is required), suitable for detailed microstructural features, inclusions, and surface defects.

Q: How is the 0.1mm reticle eyepiece used? A: The included WF10x/22mm reticle eyepiece with 0.1mm graduation allows direct, on-stage linear measurements of grain size, inclusion diameter, coating thickness, crack length, or feature dimensions—essential for standardized reporting and quality documentation.

Q: Can digital imaging be easily integrated? A: Yes, the trinocular head includes a dedicated phototube for attaching microscope cameras, enabling live viewing, high-resolution photography, measurements via software, and integration into reports, publications, or quality management systems.

Q: What is included in the package? A: The package includes the complete trinocular inverted metallurgical microscope, WF10x/22mm standard eyepiece, WF10x/22mm 0.1mm reticle eyepiece, quintuple nosepiece, LWD infinity plan semi-apo objectives (5x, 10x, 20x, 50x), three-layer mechanical stage, reflected light epi-illuminator, coaxial focus system, power adapter, dust cover, and user manual.
