Olympus GX53 Inverted Microscope

The Olympus GX53 inverted metallurgical microscope is a highly advanced microscope that has been designed specifically for metallurgical applications. This microscope offers a range of advanced features, including an LED illumination system, a built-in 6-position objective turret, and a high-resolution camera system that can capture up to 16-megapixel images. These features make it an ideal tool for the analysis of metallurgical samples, including steel samples.


  • When it comes to measuring grain size, there are two primary methods: the planametric method and the intercept method. The planametric method involves measuring the grain size using an image of the sample taken through the microscope. This method involves tracing around each grain in the image and calculating the grain size based on the traced area. The intercept method involves drawing a series of lines across the image and counting the number of times each line intercepts a grain boundary. The grain size is then calculated based on the length of the intercept lines and the number of grain boundary intersections.

    The ASTM E112 and ISO 643 standards provide guidelines for measuring the grain size of metals using both the planametric and intercept methods. These standards specify the equipment and procedures required for measuring the grain size of various metals accurately. The ASTM E1382 standard also provides guidelines for the calibration of microscope and camera systems used in grain size analysis, ensuring accurate and reliable results.

    The microscope's Mplanfl type objective lenses with bright field and darkfield are specifically designed for metallurgical applications. The bright field objective lens provides clear images of the sample's microstructure, while the darkfield objective lens is ideal for highlighting specific features in the sample, such as grain boundaries or inclusions. Both lenses offer high optical performance, ensuring accurate and reliable results.
