XUM600 Upright Metallurgical Microscope

Key Benefits

• Seidentopf trinocular head with 30° inclination and 360° rotation for shared viewing or camera integration
• Coaxial coarse and fine focus with 25mm coarse stroke and 0.2mm fine rotation for precise depth control
• Mechanical stage with 77mm x 52mm travel range and 50mm fast lowering unit for large sample handling
• Dual illumination: reflected 5W LED or 12V/50W halogen, and transmitted 5W LED or 6V/30W halogen for versatility
• Supports both bright field and dark field with M PLAN objectives and polarizing unit for texture and defect analysis

Application Scenarios

• Inspection of polished metal sections for grain structure, cracks, and inclusions in metallurgy labs
• Quality control of machined or cast metal parts using bright and dark field to reveal surface defects
• Failure analysis of thin films, coatings, and plated layers under reflected light
• Microstructure evaluation of heat-treated or annealed metals with polarized light
• Teaching metallurgical microscopy in university or vocational training labs with shared viewing

Who It Is For

• Metallurgy and materials science laboratories in manufacturing and R&D
• Quality control departments in foundries, heat-treatment, and metal fabrication plants
• University and technical college teaching labs for materials engineering and metallurgy
• Research labs analyzing metal fatigue, corrosion, and phase transformations
• Precision component inspection in aerospace, automotive and tooling industries

Problems It Solves

• A fixed head orientation limits viewing angles for multiple operators or camera setup
• Lack of mechanical stage forces manual sample movement, increasing risk of misalignment
• No dual illumination capability requires separate instruments for reflected and transmitted light
• Fixed focus mechanism makes depth adjustment slow and imprecise during high-magnification work
• Absence of polarizing unit prevents analysis of anisotropic structures like crystal grains

Technical Features

• Seidentopf trinocular head with 30° inclination and 360° rotation for flexible viewing
• Coaxial coarse and fine focusing with 25mm coarse stroke and 0.2mm fine rotation per turn
• Fine focus division of 2μm and upper distance limiter for repeatable positioning
• Mechanical stage with 77mm x 52mm travel range and 50mm stage fast lowering unit
• Dual illumination: reflected 5W LED or 12V/50W halogen, transmitted 5W LED or 6V/30W halogen
• M PLAN objectives for bright and dark field with 0.13 to 0.70 NA and working distances from 1.60mm to 7.30mm
• Polarizing unit with analyzer and polarizer for birefringence analysis
• Abbe condenser with N.A. 1.25 and iris diaphragm for high-resolution illumination control

Customization Options

• Choose between XUM601 (LED reflected) and XUM601D (halogen reflected) for illumination preference
• Select XUM602 (LED transmitted) or XUM602D (halogen transmitted) based on transmitted light needs
• Add optional M PLAN objectives for dark field inspection
• Attach C-Mount adapter with 1X, 0.75X, or 0.5X magnification for camera integration
• Upgrade to higher NA objectives or add polarizing components as required

Comparison With Other Options

Use Guide

• Adjust interpupillary distance to 48mm-76mm before focusing to ensure merged binocular image
• Use the coarse focus first at low magnification, then switch to fine focus for precise depth control
• For dark field, ensure the M PLAN objectives are mounted and the condenser is properly aligned
• Set the condenser iris diaphragm to match the objective NA for optimal contrast and resolution
• Use the stage fast lowering unit to access large samples or thick specimens without moving the stage
