This is a feature-packed, economical metallurgical microscope with an upright design, and both trasmitted and incident illumination. The episcopic illuminator includes removable polarizer and analyzer, as well as adjustable field and aperture diaphragms. The plan-achromatic optical system offers sharp, flat-field images with excellent color-correction. With 10X and 16X eyepieces, twelve magnification settings are provided: six metallurgical (50X, 80X, 100X, 160X, 500X & 800X), and six bright-field (40X, 64X, 100X, 160X, 400X & 640X). The Siedentopf head with dual diopters and high-eyepoint eyepieces provides a comfortable and adjustable viewing platform. There is also a dedicated photo port for simultaneous viewing and imaging.The 18MP digital camera captures still images and video, and allows you to view a live stream on your PC. With software available for Windows, Mac, and Linux, its a multi-platform imaging solution. The included Windows software offers image-development and measurement tools, as well as advanced compositing features such as image-stitching and extended-depth-of-focus. Independent preview and capture resolutions allow you to view high-speed video while capturing high-definition images. For Mac and Linux, there is a lite version with limited processing features.Features: An advanced metallurgical microscopy system with incident and transmitted illumination Polarized lighting for structural analysis Includes a range of filters for lighting manipulation Six metallurgical magnification settings: 50X, 80X, 100X, 160X, 500X & 800X Six bright-field magnification settings: 40X, 64X, 100X, 160X, 400X & 640X 5X, 10X, and 50X long-working-distance metallurgy plan achromat objectives 4X, 10X, 40X achromat objectives 10X plan eyepieces for flat-field viewing 16X wide-field eyepieces for higher magnification Co-axial coarse & fine focusing system 30 degree inclined 360 degree rotatable trinocular head Full optical glass elements Precise ground glass lens All metal mechanical parts Coaxial coarse and fine focusing Dual focusing control knobs Focusing tension control mechanism Adjustable interpupillary distance Adjustable diopters on both eye tubes Solid metal frame construction with stain resistant enamel finish Manufactured under ISO 9001 quality control standards Excellent five (5) year factory warrantySpecifications: Head: 30 degree inclined trinocular Eyepieces: High-eyepoint WF10X/18 Interpupillary Adjustment: Siedentopf Nosepiece: forward quadruple RMS thread Tube length: 160mm Metallurgical Objectives: 5X/0.13, 10X/0.25, 50X/0.6 long-working-distance plan achromatic DIN Bright-field Objectives: 4X/0.1, 10X/0.25, 40X/0.65 achromatic DIN Polarization System: removable analyzer/polarizer filters for episcopic lighting with +/- 25 adjustment Focus System: coaxial coarse/fine focus Focus Travel Range: 28mm Fine-focus Precision: 0.002mm Stage: 140x132mm double layer mechanical stage Stage X-Y Movement: 75x50mm Illumination: 30W reflected, 20W transmitted Metallurgical Objective Lenses Magnification Corrections NA Working Distance Cover-glass Thickness 5X Plan-achromatic 0.13 15.5mm 0 10X Plan-achromatic 0.25 8.7mm 0 50X Plan-achromatic 0.60 5.1mm 0 Biological Objective Lenses Magnification Corrections NA Cover-glass Thickness 4X Achromatic 0.10 - 10X Achromatic 0.25 0.17 40X Achromatic 0.60 0.17Camera Specifications: Sensor: Aptina (color) Sensor Type: CMOS Sensor Size: 6.14x4.61mm Pixel Size: 1.25 Resolution: 18.0MP Frame Rate: 32.2fps @ 1228x922, 18.1fps @ 2456x1842, 5.6fps @ 4912x3684 Sensitivity: 0.62 V/lux-sec Compatibility: Windows (32/64 bit) XP/Vista/7/8/10, Mac OSX, LinuxSoftware Specifications: OS Requirements: Windows (32/64 bit) XP/Vista/7/8/10, Mac OS 10.8+, Linux kernel 3.13+ Hardware Requirements: Intel Core2 2.8GHz or comparable processor, 2GB RAM, USB3.0 port for maximum speedPacking List : One ME580-2L microscope with trinocular Siedentopf head One photo tube Three LM Plan achromatic objectives (5X, 10X, 50X) Three achromatic objectives (4X, 10X, 40X) One pair of PL10X18 eyepieces One Pair of WF16X eyepieces One sub-stage condenser One Halogen episcopic illuminator module One 6V 30W G4 halogen bulb One 6V 20W G4 halogen bulb Six filters (polarizer, analyzer, green, blue, yellow, diffuser One AC cord One pack of lens tissues One dust cover One tension wrench One 18MP USB3.0 digital camera One reduction lens Two camera mounting adapters One USB cable One software CD
