XUM700 Upright Metallurgical Microscope
The XUM700 is an upright metallurgical microscope with a Seidentopf binocular or trinocular head, designed for inspecting polished metal surfaces, semiconductor wafers, and thin-film materials.

Product Overview
The XUM700 is an upright metallurgical microscope with a Seidentopf binocular or trinocular head, designed for inspecting polished metal surfaces, semiconductor wafers, and thin-film materials. It uses infinity-corrected plan objectives with long working distances, allowing inspection of samples without contact. The 6V/20W or 6V/30W halogen reflection illumination provides consistent light for surface detail, and the 80:20 light distribution splits beam paths between the eyepiece and camera port. The mechanical stage supports large samples up to 200x140mm with 76mmx52mm travel.

Key Benefits
- Infinity-corrected long working distance objectives allow inspection of thick or uneven metal samples without contact
- 80:20 light distribution sends 80% of light to the eyepiece and 20% to the camera port, enabling simultaneous visual and digital inspection
- Rotatable 360° Seidentopf head with 48-75mm interpupillary adjustment suits multiple operators and ergonomic viewing
- Mechanical stage with 76mmx52mm travel supports large samples and precise positioning during inspection
- Optional polarizing attachment with 1x and 0.5X focus-adjustable analyzer enables stress and crystal structure analysis
Application Scenarios
- Inspection of polished metal surfaces in heat-treatment or foundry quality control
- Surface defect analysis on semiconductor wafers or thin-film coatings
- Microstructure examination of castings, welds, and alloyed materials under reflected light
- Documentation of grain boundaries and phase distribution with a digital camera connected to the trinocular port
- Teaching metallurgical structure identification in university or vocational training labs
Who It Is For
- Metallurgy and materials quality labs in manufacturing and foundry operations
- Semiconductor and electronics component inspection teams
- University and technical school labs teaching materials science and metallurgy
- Research labs analyzing microstructure and surface stress in metals and alloys
- Precision engineering workshops inspecting machined or heat-treated parts
Problems It Solves
- Fixed working distance objectives require sample thinning or surface flattening before inspection
- Lack of separate camera port forces the operator to switch between visual and digital modes
- Non-rotatable heads limit ergonomic viewing for different operator heights or positions
- Insufficient stage travel makes it hard to scan large or irregularly shaped samples
- No polarizing option prevents analysis of stress patterns and crystal orientation in metals

- Mechanical stage with 200x140mm size and 76mmx52mm travel, suitable for large or irregular samples
- 6V/20W or 6V/30W halogen lamp for consistent reflected illumination
- Five-hole filter unit (blue, green, amber, grey, empty) for contrast enhancement
- C-mount polarizing attachment with 1x and 0.5x options for stress and crystal analysis

Comparison With Other Options
| XUM701 upright metallurgical microscope | The XUM700 includes a trinocular head and 80:20 light distribution as standard; the XUM701 offers only binocular and no dedicated camera port. |
|---|---|
| XUM702 upright metallurgical microscope | The XUM702 has a 6V/30W halogen lamp and polarizing attachment as standard; the XUM700 requires these as optional upgrades. |
| Standard biological microscope | A biological microscope uses transmitted light and requires transparent samples; the XUM700 uses reflected light and is designed for opaque, polished metal or semiconductor surfaces. |
Use Guide
- Adjust the interpupillary distance to 48-75mm before focusing to ensure a single merged image
- Start with the lowest magnification objective to locate the area of interest, then switch to higher magnifications
- Use the 80:20 light distribution to balance eyepiece brightness and camera exposure when recording
- For polarizing analysis, ensure the 0.5X focus-adjustable analyzer is properly aligned with the polarizer
- Clean the objective lenses and sample surface with lens paper before inspection to avoid contamination
