Metallographic microscope MAGUS Metal 600

The MAGUS Metal 600 metallographic microscope is designed for the study of opaque samples (metals, alloys, paint coatings, semiconductors and other materials) in reflected light with brightfield and polarized light microscopy technique. The microstructures of polished flat samples can be studied. The transmitted light illuminator also allows the examination of particles stuck on filters and translucent materials (such as films) with the microscope. The microscope is suitable for research and analysis conducted by geologists, metallurgists, engineers, archaeologists, and specialists in other scientific fields.

Optical

The trinocular head is equipped with a trinocular tube for mounting on the camera (not included). The light beam can take two positions: 100:0 or 0:100, i.e. the light beam can be directed at the digital camera or the eyepiece tube. The trinocular head is tilted at 30°, making it ideal for long-lasting observations. On the left barrel there is a diopter adjustment ring.

In the basic configuration, the magnification of the microscope ranges from 50x to 600x. To increase the maximum magnification limit, additional eyepieces can be mounted. The nosepiece is oriented towards the inside of the instrument. Five lenses can be mounted at the same time: four are included in the kit and one slot is free for installing an additional lens. The microscope is equipped with planachromatic objectives with a long working distance suitable for brightfield microscopy.

Lighting

The microscope is equipped with transmitted and reflected light illumination systems. Both use 30 W halogen lamps with adjustable brightness, powered by AC power. Halogen lamps emit light with a colour temperature that ensures greater eye comfort.

The microscope is equipped with polarization tools for reflected light observations: a built-in analyzer and a removable polarizer. The aperture and field diaphragms make it possible to set the Köhler illumination. Color filters are also included in the kit. The openings and the reflected light source can be centered.

The transmitted light lighting system uses a traditional Abbe condenser, whose position can be adjusted in two ways: centered and height-adjusted. It is completed by a flip-up lens that allows it to be used with low-magnification objectives. There are field diaphragms and an aperture, which allow the Köhler method of illumination to be used.

Stage and focusing mechanism

The maximum height of the sample that can be placed on the stage is 20 mm. The sample can be moved by moving the stage along the two axes. It is equipped with a slide to be used for observing opaque specimens.

Coarse and fine focus mechanisms are used for focus adjustment. The focus is smooth and precise. The coarse focus is equipped with a fixing knob and the tension of the coarse screw can be adjusted. The focus knobs are coaxially positioned on both sides, so that you don't have to keep your hands in the air while observing, but comfortably on the table.

Fixings

The MAGUS Metal 600 microscope can be further equipped with additional eyepieces, objectives with a long distance, digital cameras and calibration slides.
