GX Optical offer a very extensive range of microscopes for Materials Inspection from these major manufacturers: GX Microscopes, Leica, Olympus, Meiji and Motic. Materials microscopy covers a vast range of different specimen types, most require reflected (top light) some also require transmitted (bottom) light. The broad definition of materials specimens is that they are non-biological, they include polished and unpolished metals, ceramics, polymers, minerals, crystals, powders, rocks, electronic components, medical devices, paper, fabrics and concrete. We have arranged the microscope selection below based on the type of microscope typically used for materials inspection applications.

Digital Microscopes
GX Optical specialise in the field of microscope imaging. There are two ways of obtaining images from microscopes. You can either purchase a conventional microscope and attach a camera to it or there is now a choice of a wide range of digital microscopes with built-in cameras on offer, which are shown in this section.
The range includes: USB or Video connection Handheld, desktop and portable models A choice of image resolutions A range of software functionality including measurements on many models Various stand types Magnification range from 1X to 540X

Monozoom Microscopes
Monozoom microscopes are compact, highly versatile, single lens zoom microscopes that are usually supplied with a digital camera attached. These microscopes have very high quality optics and the modular design can be configured for use in almost any application. These microscopes are particularly popular for industrial inspection tasks. They can be attached to any type of stand including long reach boom arm stands as shown above. Magnification range from 2x to 1000x
Our range includes Upright and Inverted Monozoom Microscopes from these major manufacturers: GX Microscopes VSM Navitar

Polarising Microscopes
GX Optical offer the largest range of polarising microscopes. These microscopes are designed for looking at polarising materials such as rocks, minerals, polymers and crystals. They are characterised by having a rotating stage and an analyser and rotatable polariser. Many of the advanced models include mica and quartz wedge inserts and Bertrand lenses. All optics are strain-free.

Materials microscopes are available in a wide range of types due to the enormous range of specimen types, each of which may need to be illuminated and observed using different techniques and magnification ranges. For observation of smaller polished sections of metals, polymers and minerals and for studying powders, crystals, fabrics and small components at high magnifications then an upright or monozoom microscope is most commonly used. If the samples are large and have a polished surface then an inverted microscope can be used. For inspections of subjects that have not been cut and polished at lower magnifications such as PCBs, components, mouldings and fabrics/paper a stereo microscope is often more suitable
