Product Overview

The Olympus PME-STAGE is the mechanical stage for the Olympus PME and PMG inverted metallurgical microscopes — the correct OEM replacement or spare stage for researchers and institutions maintaining these classic Olympus inverted metallograph systems in active service. The stage provides smooth, precise XY translation of the specimen using right-hand coaxial control stalks, enabling systematic scanning of polished metal sections, castings, welds, and other large opaque specimens that are placed face-down on the inverted metallograph stage. The inverted metallograph configuration — where the objective is below the stage and the specimen rests on top — is ideal for large, heavy, or irregularly shaped specimens that cannot be easily mounted on an upright microscope stage. This unit is in excellent condition with smooth XY travel at a significant discount from the list price, and is an essential replacement component for PME and PMG series metallograph systems.
