The manufacturer teaches you to choose the right one step from the purpose, the multiplier, and the configuration
With the increasing demand for industrial testing, semiconductor, metallographic analysis, jewelry identification, and teaching and scientific research, many companies, laboratories, and purchasing friends can easily step on the pit when choosing a microscope: the model is indistinguishable, the magnification is randomly selected, the configuration is high and the budget is wasted, and the low price does not meet the testing requirements.
As the original manufacturer of professional microscopes, Suzhou Yikamo Optics today compiled a practical and easy-to-understand microscope purchase guide, and novices can quickly choose the right model.
1. Teaching laboratory, biological observation and → selection microscope
It is mostly used in school teaching, biological biopsies, medical laboratory tests, and routine microscopic observations. It is simple to operate, clear in imaging, and cost-effective.
2. Metal material, coating, semiconductor detection → and metallographic microscope
Suitable for metallographic structure analysis, material grain observation, circuit board, semiconductor wafer, metal coating defect detection, commonly used in industrial quality inspection laboratories.
3. Electronic repair, precision parts, jewelry → sorting stereo microscope
Stereoscopic imaging, large field of view, easy to operate, suitable for anatomical observation, parts inspection, antique jewelry identification, electronic maintenance industry.
4, mineral crystals, jewelry, material stress detection → polarization microscope
With its own polarization system, it can observe crystal structure, mineral lithofacies, jewelry authenticity identification, and material stress analysis.
Many people mistakenly think that the higher the multiplier, the better, but it is enough to be the most suitable:
• Routine biology instruction: 100-400x is sufficient
• Normal metallographic examination: 50–500 times interval
• Visual inspection: 10–45 times
The magnification is too high, but the field of view is small, the focus is difficult, and daily use is inconvenient.
3. Do you want to use a microscope camera imaging system?
If you need to take photos for archiving, computer display, and save test reports, be sure to use a microscope digital imaging camera.
Procurement of microscopes is recommended to prioritize physical manufacturers, with obvious advantages:
Choosing an industrial microscope does not need to entangle complex parameters. First, determine the use scenario, then determine the magnification, and finally see whether digital imaging is required. Basically, you can choose a cost-effective model.
Suzhou Yikamo Optical Instrument focuses on the R&D and production of biological microscopes, metallographic microscopes, stereoscopic microscopes, and polarizing microscopes. It supports customization, wholesale, and OEM. It provides a complete selection plan and after-sales service. If you have any needs, you can inquire and visit the factory at any time.
Tell us the material, the feature you need to see and the magnification range. We will recommend a configuration and quote it.
