Resolving power of objective lens -NA

Huvitz objective range
This particular feature is very important when considering which microscope objective to use in the application of viewing samples using a microscope. A high NA value allows the microscope user to focus on the finer details that would not be possible with an inferior optical system (low NA). Using a low NA system - fine details would not be resolved under a microscope. But with the resolving power of high NA objectives it separates the features and allows the user to view more detail of the structure. This is an important consideration when viewing the laminar structure of cementite.

An objective with a high numerical aperture (NA) with good resolution to offer improved clarity to reveal the nature of the structure. Whereas an objective with a lower NA will not allow the user to view the detail of the micro structure under the microscope.

The 100x objective has a NA of 0.9 and a working distance of 1mm and can resolve feature of 0.37 micron

Discotom 2

Image
Struers Discotom 2 abrasive cutting machine is an important tool for the professional metallographer.  The first Discotom was introduced in 1965 and offers a robust design with enclosed cutting area and twin vices.  Progressive design improvements have produced a micro sectioning machine of  very good design for the cutting of smaller components ready for mounting and polishing  for optical microscope analysis. A recent project carried out for a customer involved the supply of Leica microscope and a Discotom cutting machine.  The Leica DM4000M and S6D stereo microscope were both in very good condition and offered with microscope cameras. The Discotom needed extensive work to be carried out to meet the requirements for the customer and Spectrographic’s reputation for high quality used metallurgical equipment. See the pictures, which shows the extent of the work undertaken to make the Discotom as good as new ready for delivery to our customer in Sweden. Bearings Belt
