Euromex Delphi-X Inverso Advanced Materials Science Microscope

10 Years Warranty

The Euromex Delphi-X Inverso is a professional inverted microscope designed for demanding materials science and industrial inspection applications.

It supports brightfield, darkfield and polarised-light observation, with optional differential interference contrast. Its high-numerical-aperture, long-working-distance infinity-corrected objectives provide excellent resolution when examining opaque materials without cover glasses.

The large mechanical stage can support samples weighing up to 30 kg, making the microscope particularly suitable for examining large or heavy industrial components.
