Find the solution for your needs
There are various Leica metallographic microscope solutions that help you perform efficient and accurate inspection and analysis.
- Standard: When you need to do simple inspection of samples.
- Advanced: When you need to perform simple inspection as well as analyze and document multiple sample features.
- Professional: When you need to acquire images of many samples or images with both high resolution and a large field of view.
For any of the above solutions, you can choose either an upright or inverted microscope.
Various Leica software modules for metallographic analysis
Accurate and reproducible grain size analysis
Analyze the grain size with the LAS X Grain Expert software module to gather information about metals and alloys, e.g., tensile and yield strength, elongation at fracture, and ductile-brittle transition temperature. It covers multiple international standards like ASTM E112, DIN/EN/ISO 643, etc.
Phase analysis with better detection accuracy
Perform precise analysis of multiple phases and microstructures, measuring area percentages of metals, with the LAS X Phase Expert software module. It employs high bit-depth or HDR images and accurate detection algorithms to investigate subtle phase differences.
Steel quality rating
Ensure steel quality with the LAS X Steel Expert analysis software. It helps you rate accurately and quickly non-metallic inclusions and meet international, regional, and organizational standards for various industries. A number of standards can be licensed, such as ISO 4967, EN 10247, ASTM E45, DIN 50602, etc.
Structural analysis of cast iron
Quickly analyze graphite microstructures in nodular/ductile or compacted cast iron with the LAS X Cast Iron Expert software module. It automatically identifies type, shape, size, and distribution of graphite nodules, adhering to international standards like ASTM A247, ISO 945-2, and JIS G 5502. You can also determine the ferrite/pearlite ratio and rapidly analyze graphite, ferrite, and pearlite in parallel.
Surface carbon depletion in heat treated steel
Ensure the quality of tempered steel with the LAS X Decarburization Expert module. It is suitable for analyzing carbon depletion in steel caused by heat treatment. This software allows you to analyze the functional decarburization depth. Multiple international standards, such as ASTM 1077, DIN 50192, ISO/DIN/EN 3887, etc., are covered.
Flexible-to-use tools for stereology-based structural analysis
Turn the LAS X 2D Measurement module into a versatile toolbox for stereological analysis of metal samples with the LAS X Metallography Toolbox. Simplify manual tasks when defining parameters for calibrated measurements, such as baseline lengths, lineal intercepts, point counting, segments of circles, etc. You can assign individual classes to measurements and generate component and phase-specific results.
