MET900 Series — Upright Metallurgical Microscope Family · 4 Models · Binocular / Trinocular · Reflected or Reflected / Transmitted Light
MET900 Series upright metallurgical microscope family from COLO.Science. Binocular or trinocular configurations, reflected-light or reflected / transmitted-light observation, infinity optics and modular imaging support.
OVERVIEW
MET900 Series is an upright metallurgical microscope family developed for laboratories and industrial users that need reliable observation of metals, coatings, precision components, electronics, PCBs, materials surfaces and other technical samples. The family is structured around four core models: MET900BR, MET900TR, MET900BTR and MET900TTR.
The platform combines infinity optical performance, binocular or trinocular viewing, reflected-light observation and, in selected models, reflected / transmitted-light operation. This makes MET900 suitable for metallurgical inspection, materials analysis, industrial quality control, educational laboratories and documentation workflows that require flexible model selection within one product family.
Professional metallurgical microscope family with 4 practical model variants, binocular and trinocular options, reflected-light or dual-light configurations and COLO.Science support for materials, coatings, electronics and industrial laboratory workflows.COLO.Science · Practical and robust equipment for everyday laboratory workflows.

Product overview
MET900 Series is designed as a flexible family platform for laboratories and industrial users that need upright metallurgical microscopy, precise mechanical handling, stable optical performance and configuration flexibility across different workflows. The family concept helps users choose the right balance between binocular or trinocular viewing and between reflected-light or reflected / transmitted-light operation.
Configuration notice — delivered version depends on selected MET900 model
MET900 is presented here as a family page. The final delivered configuration depends on whether the selected version is MET900BR, MET900TR, MET900BTR or MET900TTR, and whether the microscope includes a binocular or trinocular head, reflected-light or reflected / transmitted-light layout, standard or optional accessories, camera integration or additional optical accessories. The official HTML/PDF technical specification defines the exact scope of supply and available options. Specifications may change without prior notice.
