Motic 1100103800171 AE2000MET Trinocular Inverted Metallurgical Microscope with 100W Illumination

Motic's AE2000MET is an Inverted Metallurgical microscope designed to inspect polished cross-sections as well as larger, bulky samples within industries such as automotive, machinery, and metal fabrication. Large metal or die cast parts, too large to view under a conventional upright microscope, can easily be examined for failure analysis, material research or quality control.

With the new AE2000MET, Motic introduces an Inverted Metallurgical microscope dedicated to the inspection of bulky samples in automotive, machinery and steel industry. Large metal pieces or die casting parts, too large to be treated with an upright microscope model, can easily be examined to perform failure analysis, material research and quality control.

Features:

• Robust manufacturing quality for a long lifetime
• New BF/DF objectives for metallurgy
• Sufficient power resources
• A flexible upgrade for digital results

Motic's CCIS® optics, an advanced Infinity concept with maximum flexibility, provides new Brightfield/Darkfield objectives with Long Working distances for the inspection of massive opaque samples. High quality glasses and anti-reflex coating ensure superb image quality. The robust 3-plate stage allows smooth scanning of the specimen. A powerful 100W Halogen light source allows easy performance of Brightfield, Darkfield and POL contrast. The complete AE2000MET microscope is manufactured in accordance with current RoHS standards. To protect the system from fungus growth in highhumidity environments, an anti-fungus treatment is applied to all parts of the microscope.

Robust manufacturing quality for a long lifetime

Motic's AE2000MET incorporates maximum reliability in any aspect of its mechanics. The sturdy microscope stand follows all needs for a prolonged effortless operation. The ball-bearing 5-fold nosepiece for M32 objective thread guarantees proper parcentration and comfortable objective change. The scratch resistant 3-plate stage has an extended surface area of 280x180mm, with a travel range of 50x50mm for safe and fast inspection purposes. The eyepiece tube with 45° viewing angle and 48-75mm interpupillary distance guarantees relaxed viewing for hours. The extended "butterfly" movement increases the viewing height for individual positioning by 40mm. Light split with activated Trino port is 20/80.

BF/DF objectives for metallurgy

Motic's superb CCIS® Infinity concept has created a set of new BF/DF objectives, especially meant for metallurgical samples. Long working distances are verified throughout this class of LM Plan Achromats. Aberration-free images with improved field flatness and resolution are delivered by multi-layer coated glass lenses. All BF lenses from the BA310MET program can be used without parfocality restrictions by adapter rings. The standard eyepieces N-WF 10X/20 with high eyepoint for eyeglass wearers provide consistent diopter adjustment for both eyes. All reticles from the BA series of Upright microscopes can be used.

Sufficient power resources

The AE2000MET is equipped with a strong 12V/100W Halogen light source, delivering enough power to support the requirements of Darkfield and POL contrast. As a safety precaution and for energy-saving purposes, Motic has implemented a "sleep mode" in the AE2000MET. An IR motion sensor detects the user in front of the microscope and automatically turns off the microscope when it is left for more than 15 minutes. By returning to the instrument, the power is reactivated. Darkfield observation requires a high setting of illumination intensity. A switch from Darkfield to Brightfield may cause a dazzling to the human eye. To eliminate this risk, an eye protection mechanism has been implemented in the AE2000MET. This ergonomic feature automatically drives down the illumination intensity when changing from DF to BF and thus avoids a potential glare. In addition to the standard package, the AE2000MET offers a set of polarizer & analyzer for simple POL contrast. The rotatable analyzer ensures the perfect setting of crossed POL filters.

Flexible upgrade for digital results

Documentation of image results is a standard task in industrial quality control. The AE2000MET is accessible by the traditional photomicrography and the more flexible C-mount camera approach. The Trinocular version of the AE2000MET is recommended for a convenient camera adaption. The adaptation of SLR camera consists of a mechanical adapter combined with a photo eyepiece (2.5X or 4X). The necessary T2 adapter specifically fits to the camera model and is supplied by photo specialist shops. The Moticam series of digital C-mount cameras delivers excellent live images, ready for presentations and further storage. All Motic cameras come equipped with proprietary software to transform the AE2000MET into an analysis and documentation station. For limited top landing bench, Moticam 580 is ideal for the presentation of High Resolution images on an HDMI screen without a computer. The wireless models Moticam X and X2 are dedicated to run under tablet and smartphone control through "MotiConnect" App. The tablet cameras with touch screen in first instance work as a fixed monitor solution, but may also create a hotspot for remote tablet/smartphone access.
