The Optika B-383MET is a trinocular metallurgical microscope for opaque specimen analysis in reflected and transmitted light. It carries IOS W-PLAN MET no-cover-glass objectives from 4x to 50x, designed for metallographic samples that need direct observation without a cover slip. The exclusive X-LED3 illumination covers both transmitted and incident light paths, with polarizer and analyzer filters for incident light work. The stage accepts samples up to 15 mm high. It suits materials science, metallography, and industrial quality control.

Trinocular Metallurgical Microscope for Reflected and Transmitted Light Analysis

The Optika B-383MET is built for observing specimens that stay opaque even at microscopic thickness, such as metals, ores, ceramics, and polymers. It combines IOS W-PLAN MET no-cover-glass objectives with X-LED3 illumination on both the transmitted and incident light paths, plus polarizer and analyzer filters for incident light analysis.

  • IOS W-PLAN MET objectives designed for use without a cover slip
  • Combined transmitted and incident X-LED3 illumination
  • Polarizer and analyzer filters for incident light metallography
  • Stage accepts samples up to 15 mm high
  • Suited to materials science, metallography, and industrial quality control

Optika B-383MET Trinocular Metallurgical Microscope

The Optika B-383MET is a trinocular metallurgical microscope from the B-380 series, built for reflected light microscopy of opaque specimens such as metals, ores, and ceramics.

IOS W-PLAN MET objectives are designed for use without a cover slip, and X-LED3 illumination covers both the transmitted and incident light paths.

No-Cover-Glass IOS W-PLAN MET Objectives

The objective set covers 4x, 10x, 20x, and 50x, designed specifically for microscopy without a cover slip, ideal for metallographic samples and other opaque specimens.

Combined Transmitted and Incident Illumination

X-LED3 illumination covers both the transmitted and incident light paths with manual brightness control, and polarizer and analyzer filters support incident light metallography.

Stage for Bulk Metallographic Samples

The 233×147 mm double layer mechanical stage accepts samples up to 15 mm high, with a 78×54 mm X-Y moving range.

Coaxial Focusing with Limit Stop

Coarse and fine focusing share a coaxial control, with 25 mm coarse travel and 2 um fine resolution. An upper stop prevents contact between the objective and the specimen.

Ideal Applications

The B-383MET suits laboratories that examine opaque, reflective materials.

  • Metal and alloy microstructure analysis
  • Ore and mineral examination
  • Ceramics, polymers, and composite material inspection
  • Semiconductor and integrated circuit inspection
  • Industrial quality control and materials research

Choose the B-383MET when:

  • You need reflected light microscopy for opaque specimens
  • You want combined transmitted and incident illumination on one stand
  • You need polarizer and analyzer filters for metallography
  • You examine bulk samples up to 15 mm high

Optika Value Proposition

The Optika B-383MET combines no-cover-glass IOS W-PLAN MET optics with combined transmitted and incident X-LED3 illumination on a trinocular stand, backed by Optika 10-year mechanical and optical warranty plus lifetime X-LED warranty.
