Abstract��The principles and the technical advantages of the laser scanning confocal microscope ��LSCM�� were introduced�� then the typical applications in the metallurgical industry such as the microstructure observation�� the corrosion morphology mapping and the failure analysis were reviewed combined with the practical application in a company. The analysis indicated that compared with the traditional metallurgical microscope�� the LCSM had the advantages of the large field depth�� the good clarity�� the high resolution�� the quick?sample?preparation�� the easy operation�� the three-dimensional morphological construction and the multi-scale measurements. All above demonstrated that the LSCM was a promising and powerful tool in the metal materials technology.
