Discover Smart Microscopy.
Focus. Snap. Done.
Axiovert is a smart microscope, delivering excel-
lent results with fast time to image. Simply focus 
and press a single button to save a high-quality 
image of your material sample. 
Change samples with no need for refocusing to 
save time and effort. Just place the sample on the 
stage, focus once and stay in focus for further 
samples, even when changing magnification. 
Ergonomic Operating Concept.
Work Comfortably All Day.

Full Confidence in Your Data
The coded components of Axiovert not only make your work easier and more comfortable, but also ensure that erroneous operation and the associated falsification of 
the examination results can be largely ruled out. With Axiovert, you’re assured reliable and reproducible results.
Reproducible Results
The coded components of Axiovert detects changes to objectives or contrast techniques, then adjusts dependent parameters – such as light intensity and scaling – 
automatically. This allows multi-faceted routine workflows to be processed more quickly and easily. Using process parameters that you or others have stored, anyone 
can reproduce an exact workflow at any time and achieve comparable results, independent of individual users’ operating habits or preferences.

ZEISS Axiovert at Work: Contrast Methods
Aluminium alloy, 100×, brightfield
Use the contrast method of reflected light bright-
field to analyze the micro­structures of etched sur-
faces. Recognizing grain boundaries, you can draw 
conclusions on grain sizes, phases and structural 
constituents. See colors and pigments. Detect  
impurities and structural constituents, such as  
graphite in cast iron, prior to etching.
Alpha-Beta Ti, 500×, darkfield. Photo courtesy: Allied High Tech 
Products Inc.
In reflected light darkfield, mechanical surface 
faults such as fracture sites, pores and inclusions 
show up just as well as cracks, scratches and 
­cavities. You can assess the surface quality of  
processed work pieces precisely, and make out  
grain boundaries on etched cuts just as easily.
Use the polarization contrast to analyze the 
­structure of anisotropic materials, such as 
magnesium, aluminum, bronze and brass. In  
polarized light, the individual grains of crystal 
lattice will show their characteristic color.
The Differential Interference Contrast (DIC) lets 
you detect tiny structural differences in height 
with particular sensitivity. Differences in height, 
whether in the form of natural differences or 
­artifacts produced by preparation, take on a  
3D effect as relief-like structures.

ZEISS Axiovert at Work: Non-Metallic Inclusions
Non-Metallic Inclusion Analysis
The type and amount of non-metallic inclusions 
(NMI) in steels strongly affect the mechanical and 
physical properties of these steels.
Metallographic analysis of NMI is governed by 
industry standards that are supported by the 
modular and customizable ZEN core software 
which guides the user quickly and easily through 
the workflow, generating a report and inclusion 
gallery compliant with the standards.
Axiovert 7 with ZEISS ZEN module Non-Metallic 
Inclusion Analysis confirms that manufacturing 
processes, grade and quality of the product meet 
strict specifications for impurities or defects that 
can cause a component to fail or impact its tensile 
strength, toughness and fatigue.
Powerful inspection views and automated  
deformation axis detection features make analysis 
easy, intuitive and repeatable. With additional GxP 
functionality, ZEN core users are able to offer their 
customers full traceability and data integrity in 
NMI analyses, meaning that grade certification  
is auditable, particularly advantageous for 
customers in regulated industries
Supported Standards
•	 ASTM E45  
•	 ISO 4967  
•	 JIS G0555  
•	 GB/T 10561
•	 EN 10247
•	 SEP 1571
•	 DIN 50602
