The NIM-100 is primarily classified as an Inverted Metallurgical Microscope, though it shares model numbering with similar series focused on biological and polarized light applications. While the “NIM” designation specifically refers to metallurgical (materials science) use, the broader “100” series from manufacturers like Labnics and NADE includes specialized versions for biological and polarized light observation.
Key Specifications of the NIM-100 Inverted Microscope
- Microscopy Type: Inverted configuration, where the objective lenses are located below the stage, allowing for the observation of large or thick specimens like metal alloys or cell culture flasks.
- Magnification Range: Standard total magnification ranges from 40x to 400x, typically achieved through a combination of 10x wide-field eyepieces and 4x, 10x, 20x, and 40x objective lenses.
- Optical System: Features an Infinite Plan Achromatic optical system, which corrects for field curvature and color aberrations to provide sharp, flat images.
- Illumination: Equipped with a 6V/30W halogen lamp using the Kohler illumination system for even specimen lighting.
- Construction: Includes a trinocular viewing head (30° inclination) to support simultaneous observation and digital imaging via a camera interface.
Related Models in the 100 Series
Depending on your specific application, you may be looking for a different variant in the 100 series:
- NIB-100 (Biological): Specifically designed for living cell and tissue culture, often featuring phase contrast attachments to view transparent biological specimens.
- NPLM-100 (Polarized): A contrast-enhancing instrument used for identifying anisotropic materials, minerals, and polymers using polarized light.
- NIFM-100 (Fluorescence): Used for advanced biological research, such as microbiology and oncology, to detect fluorescent markers in cell structures.
