Specialty Microscopes

Specialty microscopes provide options beyond what a standard microscope can offer. An inverted microscope has a long working distance suitable for use with culture vessels such as flasks and petri dishes. The light source and condenser are on the top of the inverted microscope. This placement on the inverted microscope allows for viewing living cells in a container instead of transferring the specimen to a slide. Metallurgical microscopes illuminate the specimen through the objective lens, which is ideal for specimens that don’t transmit light. This type of specialty microscope can be used for metals, plastics, ceramics, paint, glass, crystals, and semiconductor components.

Advanced Microscopy Options For Specialized Applications

Specialty microscopes offer advanced features and capabilities beyond those of standard microscopes. Discover our range of specialty microscopes designed to meet your specific application needs.

Top-Mounted Light and Condenser

Enhanced visibility and imaging quality, particularly for live cultures and delicate samples. With a light source and condenser positioned on the top, inverted microscopes provide optimal illumination for observing specimens in culture vessels.

Extended Working Distance

Easily view samples or analyze materials that don't transmit light, without the need for additional sample preparation. Increased space between the objective lens and the specimen allows for the examination of samples with large or irregular dimensions.

Versatile Observation

Explore the vast possibilities and expand the boundaries of your research. Benefit from enhanced visualization and detailed examination of various materials, structures, or biological specimens.

Portable and Compact Design

Out in the field? Enjoy the convenience of a portable and compact microscope that can be easily carried and is built to withstand challenging outdoor conditions.
