Inclined Metallurgical Microscope MM-2 - ALMICRO
The ALMICRO MM-2 Inclined Metallurgical Microscope is designed for precise surface inspection of metals and alloys, offering enhanced operator comfort and improved illumination control. Compared to earlier basic upright metallurgical microscopes, the MM-2 introduces a 45° inclined monocular viewing tube, reducing user fatigue during prolonged observation while maintaining high optical accuracy.
Equipped with a bright-field horizontal illuminator with centering provision, field and aperture diaphragms, and filter slots, the MM-2 delivers better contrast control and uniform illumination than conventional entry-level models. The inclusion of a graduated mechanical stage enables more accurate sample positioning and repeatable analysis, making it suitable for both instructional and routine industrial applications.
With LWD metallurgical objectives (M10× and M45× SL) and wide-field eyepieces, the MM-2 offers improved working distance and clearer surface detail, positioning it as a practical upgrade over earlier fixed-tube metallurgical microscopes used in teaching labs and basic inspection environments.
Ideal for:
Metallurgy labs, material science training, quality inspection, and educational institutions seeking improved ergonomics and precision over standard metallurgical models.
