ZEISS Axio Vert.A1
Inverted Routine Microscope for Materials
Gain insights into large and heavy materials samples with ZEISS Axio Vert.A1, your compact, inverted microscope. Benefit from using a wide range of contrast methods and combine them to achieve a maximum amount of information. Take advantage of the encoded nosepiece turret that recognizes a change of objectives automatically. A light manager lets you save and recover light intensity values. Quantify your samples’ microstructure efficiently. Evaluate the properties and quality of your materials. Use these insights e.g., to optimize production processes.

Fast Imaging with a Wide Range of Objectives
For your applications you need a variety of objectives. Select the appropriate magnification at all times with the 5x encoded nosepiece turret. Save time and eliminate sources of error: the encoding allows Axio Vert.A1 to automatically recognize your objective.

Contrast Methods for All Details
Axio Vert.A1 provides all common contrast methods: with the 4x reflector turret you switch quickly and easily in reflected light between brightfield, darkfield, DIC, C-DIC, fluorescence and polarization contrast, allowing you to examine anisotropic materials such as magnesium and aluminum. Switch to transmitted light illumination and work with brightfield, polarization or phase contrast.

Reproducible Measuring and Comparing
Gain a quick, comprehensive overview of your sample at first sight using the field of view of 23°. Use reticles and structure comparison disks for measuring and counting. In addition, ZEISS ZEN core offers you a powerful range of modules such as grain size, phase analysis, layer thickness and interactive measurement for your investigations.
