Principle
The instrument uses two separate optical paths with two objectives and eyepieces to provide slightly different viewing angles to the left and right eyes. This arrangement produces a three-dimensional visualization of the sample being examined.
The stereo microscope is often used to study the surfaces of solid specimens or to carry out close work such as microsurgery, watch-making, circuit board manufacture or inspection. They are thus widely used in manufacturing industry for manufacture, inspection and quality control.
Testing procedure
Magnification range:
- 11,2x to 225x (2D)
- 7,5x to 150x (3D)
A digital camera records high resolution images.
Easy positioning by means of an X-Y table.
Testing applications
- Analyses of surface structures
- Analysis of dimensions (thickness, fibre length, etc.) and defects
- Sharp imagery of multilevel parts
