The GX53 inverted microscope features exceptional image clarity and excellent resolution at high magnifications. With accessories including a coded revolving nosepiece and software, the microscope's modular design makes it easy to customize for your requirements.
Designed for use in the steel, automotive, electronics, and other manufacturing industries, the GX53 microscope delivers crisp images that can be difficult to capture using conventional microscopy observation methods. When combined with PRECiV image analysis software, the microscope streamlines the inspection process from observation to image analysis and reporting.
