The ALMICRO MM-3 Binocular Metallurgical Microscope is an advanced surface inspection system designed for accurate metallurgical analysis with enhanced viewing comfort and higher magnification capability. Compared to the MM-2 inclined monocular model, the MM-3 upgrades the observation system to a binocular head with hard-coated prisms, allowing fatigue-free, extended inspection and improved depth perception during material evaluation.

The MM-3 features a bright-field horizontal illuminator with centering provision, delivering more uniform and controlled illumination than basic metallurgical microscopes. Its special graduated mechanical stage enables precise sample movement and repeatable positioning, improving measurement accuracy over earlier non-graduated or basic stage designs.

With standard objectives up to 45× and optional magnification extending to 450×, the MM-3 offers a significantly wider magnification range than MM-2, making it suitable not only for routine surface inspection but also for detailed microstructural examination. Variable light intensity control through a heavy-duty transformer further enhances contrast optimization for reflective specimens.

Key advantages over MM-2  inclined monocular model,:

• Binocular viewing replaces monocular inclined tube for better comfort

• Higher achievable magnification range (up to 450×)

• Improved ergonomics for prolonged metallurgical inspection

• Better suited for research, QA, and industrial labs

Ideal for:
Metallurgy labs, quality control departments, material science training, and industrial inspection environments requiring higher magnification and binocular observation.
