Optical microscopy is a highly important method for observing and interpreting the microstructure of materials, and it is a fundamental aspect of metallography. With the help of optical microscopy, it is possible to detect cracks, pores, inclusions of foreign substances or oxides within metals or alloys, ceramics, polymers, and other materials. It allows for the identification of the type, size, and shape of metal or alloy grains, as well as the various phases and their distribution. Furthermore, it provides insight into the mechanical or thermal processes that a material has undergone during its manufacturing.
Additionally, optical microscopy can be used to inspect the quality of welds in metal sheets or conduits and detect possible corrosion at welding points. It can also check the correct plating of conductors, circuit boards, printed circuits, and electrical contacts. Moreover, it can assess the functionality of small electronic components and other materials.
Our company offers tailored solutions for a wide range of microscopes, including educational and research laboratory microscopes, industrial microscopes, inspection microscopes, stereo microscopes/stereoscopes, geological/petrographic microscopes, microscopes for asbestos detection, digital microscopes, microscope accessories, magnifying lenses, microscopy cameras, and, of course, metallographic microscopes (both optical and inverted). We represent the world-leading microscope manufacturer NIKON METROLOGY from Japan in the field of industrial microscopes, as well as SANXO from Hungary in the field of digital observation systems.
