XIM700 Inverted Metallurgical Microscope

Key Benefits

• Inverted design allows inspection of large or thick metal samples, wafers, and castings without flipping
• Infinity plan objectives deliver flat, distortion-free images across the field at 5x to 100x
• 1.95mm to 3.00mm working distances support high-magnification inspection of polished surfaces
• 360° rotating, 45° inclined Butterfly Siedentopf head enables shared viewing and camera alignment
• 70:30 light split between eyepiece and camera tube allows simultaneous observation and digital capture
• Coaxial coarse and fine focusing with 2μm fine division ensures precise focus control at high magnifications
• Mechanical stage with 0.1mm scale and 75x40mm travel supports repeatable positioning of samples

Application Scenarios

• Inspection of polished metal cross-sections in foundry quality control
• Failure analysis of semiconductor wafers and thin films in a metallurgical lab
• Quality check of cast iron, steel, and alloy surfaces after heat treatment
• Documentation of grain structure and micro-defects in a university materials science lab
• Routine inspection of machined parts, bearings, and tooling surfaces in a precision workshop

Who It Is For

• Metallurgy, foundry and heat-treatment quality labs
• Semiconductor and optical component inspection lines
• University and technical college materials science and engineering departments
• Research labs studying metallography and microstructure
• Precision manufacturing workshops inspecting tooling and machined components

Problems It Solves

• A standard upright microscope cannot accommodate thick or large metal samples without repositioning
• Fixed head designs prevent easy camera alignment and shared viewing during inspection
• Non-infinity optical systems produce curved or distorted images at high magnification
• Lack of fine focus control makes it hard to maintain focus across a sample's surface
• No integrated stage scale or limited travel makes repeatable positioning of samples difficult

Technical Features

• Inverted optical design for large or thick sample inspection
• Infinity plan objectives with high numerical aperture for sharp, flat images
• Butterfly Siedentopf head with 360° rotation and 45° inclination for ergonomic viewing
• 70:30 light distribution between eyepiece and camera tube for dual use
• Coaxial coarse and fine focusing with 0.2mm per rotation and 2μm division
• Mechanical stage with 0.1mm scale, 75x40mm travel, and φ110mm round slide capacity
• 5W LED warm light source with universal input (100V-240V) for stable illumination
• Polarizing unit with polarizer and analyzer for stress and crystallographic analysis
• C-mount 0.65x adapter built into the body for camera integration

Comparison With Other Options

Use Guide

• Adjust the interpupillary distance to 48-75mm before focusing to ensure a merged image
• Start focusing at the lowest magnification (5x) and move up to higher objectives to maintain focus
• Use the 0.1mm scale on the mechanical stage to record sample positions for repeatable inspection
• Connect the HDMI camera to the C-mount adapter and power it via the included cable
• Set the light distribution to 70:30 to balance visibility in the eyepiece and image quality in the camera
