Macroscopic Examination: Quality Through Clarity

Macroscopic Examination, also known as Macro Testing or Macro Examination, provides critical insights into the quality and consistency of test samples. By observing macrostructural features with minimal magnification, it becomes possible to detect imperfections and evaluate the overall integrity of materials.

​

Key Features of the Stereo Microscope

1. Wide Field of View

   • Designed for low-magnification observation, allowing clear visualization of larger surface areas and structural features.

2. 3D Visualization

   • Provides a three-dimensional view of the sample, essential for analyzing surface conditions and weld structures.

3. High-Quality Optics

   • Equipped with advanced lenses for sharp, distortion-free imaging, ensuring accurate analysis of macrostructural details.

4. Adjustable Magnification Levels

   • Offers flexibility to zoom in on specific features while maintaining a broad overview of the sample.

5. Integrated Digital Imaging

   • Captures high-resolution images for documentation, reporting, and comparative studies, facilitating detailed assessments.

6. Ergonomic Design

   • Ensures user comfort and precision during extended observation sessions, enhancing productivity and accuracy.
