Common uses are grain size, and examination of surface defects. Metallurgical microscopes are offered in upright or inverted configurations. An inverted metallurgical microscope allows for examination of larger / taller samples, and will have reflected light only. Upright metallurgical microscopes are available with both transmitted and reflected illumination. Additionally metallurgical microscopes are available in brightfield or darkfield Adding a reticle to the eyepiece of a metallurgical microscope will allow you to make visual measurements.
