Take Eight minutes to learn tips for using iMetal-530B/BD Upright Metallographic Microscope.

Hello everyone. Today, I will explain in detail the operation method of the iMetal-530B/BD Upright Metallographic Microscope produced by Mikrosize. Mikrosize, with its outstanding technology and exquisite craftsmanship, has provided high-quality microscope equipment for numerous fields such as scientific research and industrial inspection. This iMetal-530B/BD Upright Metallographic Microscope is an outstanding representative among them.

Before starting the operation, preparation work should be carried out first. Place the  Metallographic Microscope steadily on the workbench to ensure that the workbench is stable and free from vibration. Check whether all components of the microscope are in good condition, such as the eyepieces, objectives, and stage. Connect the power supply and turn on the power switch of the microscope. At this time, the light source of the microscope turns on, and pay attention to adjusting the brightness of the light source to meet different observation requirements.

Next is the preparation of the sample. Place the metallographic sample to be observed on the stage and fix the sample with the stage clamp to ensure that the sample does not move during the observation. When placing the sample, note that the observation surface of the sample should face upward, and try to place the sample at the center of the stage.

During the operation, adjusting the eyepieces is the first step. Rotate the adjustment rings on the eyepieces to make the field of view of the eyepieces clear. At the same time, pay attention to adjusting the distance between the two eyepieces to adapt to the interpupillary distance of your own eyes, so as to obtain the best observation effect.

After that comes the selection and adjustment of the objectives. The iMetal-530B/BD is equipped with multiple objectives with different magnification factors. Select the appropriate objective according to the observation requirements. Rotate the objective turret to align the required objective with the sample. When changing the objectives, move gently to avoid the objective colliding with the sample. After selecting the objective, adjust the coarse focusing knob and the fine focusing knob to make the sample image clear. The coarse focusing knob is used to quickly adjust the focal length and find the approximate imaging position of the sample; the fine focusing knob is used for fine adjustment to make the image reach the clearest state.

During the observation, parameters such as the interpupillary distance and diopter of the microscope can also be adjusted to obtain a more comfortable and clear observation experience. At the same time, pay attention to observing different parts of the sample and change the observation position of the sample by moving the stage.

After the operation is completed, turn off the power switch of the microscope, carefully remove the sample, and clean the stage. Rotate the objective of the microscope back to the low-power objective position, cover it with a dust cover, and store it properly.
