OPTIKA B-510MET Trinocular Metallurgical Microscope with Incident Illumination
OPTIKA
MATERIAL SCIENCE / METALLOGRAPHYReflected light microscopy is the method for observation of specimens that remain opaque even when ground to a thickness of few microns. The range of specimens falling into this category is incredibly wide and includes most metals, ores, ceramics, many polymers, semiconductors (unprocessed silicon, wafers, and integrated circuits), coal, plastics, paint, paper, wood, leather, glass inclusions, and a wide variety of specific materials. |

IMPROVING THE MOST IMPORTANT ASPECTS OF MICROSCOPY EXPERIENCETOP IMAGES COME FROM IMPRESSIVE OPTICS
LABORATORY GRADE OPTICS

CONTRAST ENHANCING METHODS WITH OBLIQUE ILLUMINATION AND DIAPHRAGMSOblique illumination, also known as simple darkfield, is considered an alternative to the darkfield technique except that, instead of using dedicated darkfield objectives, the system uses the same brightfield objectives and the specimen is lighted from a movable "curtain" that has the task to modulate the oblique light; doing this, the light comes from only a different perspective generating a pseudo-darkfield effect. |

BEST RESOLUTION, COLOR AND CONTRAST WITH KÖHLER ILLUMINATIONB-510 Series is equipped with Köhler which optimizes the microscope optical path to produce high sample contrast and homogeneous bright light, reducing image artifacts, reflections and glares. In this way, you will achieve the full control over the illumination aperture to reach the best compromise between resolution and contrast and for some enhancements on the depth of field. |
X-LED3 AND X-LED8 EXCLUSIVE LIGHTING SOURCEAchieve bright images, improved color fidelity, pure white color temperature, incredibly low energy consumption and longer lifespan with the unique X-LED technology, able to double the light intensity for incomparable performance. Relevant money and energy saving thanks to the incredibly low energy consumption which allows you to cut the electricity bills by 90%! X-LED3 is on transmitted light (when included); X-LED8 is on reflected light. |
