Description

GHEXA-13.0201-A2 Inverted Metallurgical Microscope (Reflected Light, Polarizing Optional)

The GHEXA-13.0201-A2 is a robust, trinocular inverted metallurgical microscope designed for reflected light observation of opaque samples such as metals, alloys, semiconductors, ceramics, composites, and polished sections. It features a trinocular viewing head for simultaneous eyepiece and camera use, wide-field WF10x/18mm eyepieces, a quadruple nosepiece equipped with long working distance (LWD) plan coverless objectives (10x, 20x, 40x, 100x) delivering flat, high-contrast images without cover slips, a large mechanical stage (180×150mm with 15×15mm travel) for precise positioning of bulky or irregularly shaped specimens, coaxial coarse and fine focusing for smooth operation, and bright, adjustable 6V 20W halogen reflected illumination for excellent color rendering and detail revelation. Polarizing capability is available as an optional upgrade. This model offers reliable performance and ergonomic inverted design—ideal for metallography, failure analysis, quality control, and materials science laboratories in industrial, pharmaceutical, biotech, and academic settings.

Key Applications & Uses

• Metallography & Materials Characterization: Perfect for examining polished metal surfaces, grain structure, phase distribution, inclusions, heat treatment effects, and weld microstructures in ferrous and non-ferrous alloys.
• Failure Analysis & Quality Control: Enables detailed inspection of fractured surfaces, corrosion products, coating thickness, surface defects, and material imperfections in automotive, aerospace, manufacturing, and heavy industry labs.
• Semiconductor & Electronics Inspection: Supports observation of wafer surfaces, die bonding, solder joints, thin films, and microelectronic components without cover slips.
• Ceramics, Composites & Polymers: Ideal for analyzing polished sections of advanced ceramics, metal matrix composites, thermal spray coatings, and engineered materials in R&D and production environments.
• Petrography & Mineralogy (with Polarizing Upgrade): When fitted with the optional polarizing kit, it facilitates examination of ore minerals, thin sections of rocks, and anisotropic materials under transmitted or reflected polarized light.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

Q: Why are coverless LWD objectives used in this inverted metallurgical microscope? A: Coverless objectives eliminate the need for cover slips, allowing direct observation of polished, opaque samples with long working distances—preventing scratches, contamination, or focus issues on irregular or bulky specimens.

Q: What is the maximum magnification of the GHEXA-13.0201-A2? A: It provides up to 1000× total magnification with the 100× objective and 10× eyepiece, suitable for high-resolution examination of fine microstructures, grain boundaries, inclusions, and surface features.

Q: Can polarizing observation be added later? A: Yes, the microscope is designed to accept an optional polarizing kit (polarizer, analyzer, and rotatable stage insert if required), enabling transmitted or reflected polarized light microscopy for anisotropic materials and mineral identification.

Q: Is the halogen illumination adjustable? A: Yes, the 6V 20W halogen reflected light source offers adjustable intensity, delivering bright, even, and natural-color illumination ideal for critical color differentiation in metallographic and materials analysis.

Q: What is included in the package? A: The package includes the complete trinocular inverted metallurgical microscope, WF10x/18mm eyepieces, quadruple nosepiece, LWD plan coverless objectives (10x, 20x, 40x, 100x), mechanical stage, 6V 20W halogen reflected illuminator, power supply, dust cover, and user manual. Polarizing kit, digital cameras, immersion oil (for 100× if needed), and additional accessories are available separately on ghexa.com.
