The Master Science Metallurgical Microscope is an upright materials microscope with both an epi-illumination system and transmitted illumination, so opaque and transparent specimens can be examined on the same stand. Long working distance plan objectives from 5X to 50X leave generous clearance above the sample.
It is mainly used in manufacturing fields such as semiconductors, flat panel displays, circuit boards, metallic materials and precision tools, and it also suits teaching and research. The Master Science Metallurgical Microscope supports polarizing observation and gives a flat, comfortable view through FN 22 widefield eyepieces.

Common Problems This Microscope Solves
Inspecting solid parts under a microscope raises its own difficulties.
- Opaque samples cannot be lit from below:: the epi-illumination system lights them from above.
- Objectives touch tall or uneven parts:: long working distances keep the lens clear.
- Glare hides surface detail:: Kohler illumination and filters control the light.
- Focus lost between similar samples:: the locking and limit device holds the position.
