XUM500 Upright Metallurgical Microscope

Key Benefits

• Infinity plan objectives provide flat, distortion-free images across the field at all magnifications
• Long working distance objectives (up to 18.48mm) allow inspection of thick or uneven metal samples without contact
• 5W LED warm light source with 100V-240V input supports stable, low-heat illumination for extended use
• Trinocular head with C-mount and optional digital cameras enables real-time image capture and measurement
• Coaxial coarse and fine focusing knobs allow smooth, precise focus control with minimal hand movement
• Rotatable 360° and inclined 30° head improves ergonomics for multiple operators and long inspection sessions

Application Scenarios

• Inspection of polished metal surfaces for cracks, inclusions, or grain structure in foundry or heat-treatment quality labs
• Failure analysis of semiconductor wafers and thin-film layers in production or R&D environments
• Quality control of machined parts, castings, and tooling surfaces in precision manufacturing
• Documentation of microstructure features with measurement software and digital capture for reports
• Teaching metallurgy or materials science in university or vocational training labs using a shared screen

Who It Is For

• Metallurgy, foundry, and heat-treatment quality control labs
• Semiconductor and microelectronics production and R&D teams
• University and technical school materials science and engineering departments
• Precision machining and tooling manufacturers doing surface inspection
• Research labs studying microstructure, corrosion, or material fatigue

Problems It Solves

• Short working distance objectives require close proximity to the sample, risking damage to both the objective and the specimen
• Fixed illumination systems lack flexibility for different sample reflectivity or color temperature needs
• Separate camera and microscope setups often mismatch in tube diameter, focus, or optical alignment
• Lack of measurement software in basic models forces manual recording of dimensions and features
• Non-ergonomic heads make prolonged inspection uncomfortable or difficult for multiple users

Technical Features

• Infinity optical system with long working distance plan objectives for high image quality
• Swiveling Seidentopf binocular or trinocular head with 30° inclination and 360° rotation for operator comfort
• Interpupillary adjustment 48-75mm to fit different users without head movement
• Coaxial coarse and fine focusing knobs with smooth, precise motion for consistent focus
• 5W LED warm light source with wide input voltage range (100V-240V) for global use
• Five-hole filter unit (blue, green, amber, grey, empty) for contrast enhancement in different samples
• Mechanical stage with 200x140mm size and 76mmx52mm travel for accurate sample positioning
• C-mount 1x adapter with optional 0.5X focus-adjustable adapter for camera compatibility
• Digital imaging options include USB2.0 3MP, USB2.0 5MP, USB3.0 12MP, and 9.7" LCD touch screen tablet cameras
• All digital cameras include measurement software for dimensioning, area, and angle reporting

Specifications

Customization Options

• Choose between binocular and trinocular head on the same XUM500 body
• Add optional eyepieces with reticule and adjustable focus for measurement tasks
• Upgrade to higher-resolution digital cameras: 5MP USB2.0, 12MP USB3.0, or 9.7" LCD touch screen tablet
• Add polarizing attachment (analyzer and polarizer) for stress or crystallographic analysis
• Use optional 0.5X C-mount adapter to adjust camera focus or field of view
• Select from different objectives based on working distance and magnification needs

Comparison With Other Options

Use Guide

• Adjust the interpupillary distance between 48mm and 75mm before focusing to ensure a single merged image
• Start focusing at the highest magnification objective, then move to lower magnifications to maintain focus across the zoom range
• Use the 5W LED light source with appropriate filter (e.g., blue or green) to enhance contrast on reflective metal surfaces
• Connect the digital camera to a USB2.0 or USB3.0 port; the camera draws power from the same cable
• Use the measurement software to record dimensions, angles, and areas directly from the captured image
• For polarizing analysis, install both the polarizer and analyzer and rotate one to observe interference patterns
