Optical inspection systems are flexible
Optical inspection systems can replace microscopes and can be customised to give a desired field of view, resolution, magnification and depth of focus.
Recently, Prior has introduced a new Comparator Microscope by combining two high quality stereo microscopes with video cameras and a "black box" to provide an affordable alternative to vastly expensive systems currently on the market.
The system enables two images to be aligned on screen and a direct comparison made.
It is possible to combine up to four video inputs and display them simultaneously.
The microscopes offer a zoom ratio of 6.5:1 and can give a total magnification of almost 200x.
A glide stage on each microscope allows easy and precise positioning of specimens.
Feedback from launch customers indicates that this set-up is particularly cost effective for training applications along with routine analysis.
If higher magnification is required the EpiMet from Prior would also interface with the video system allowing comparison of polished metallic samples at magnifications of up to 1000x. Request a free brochure from Prior Scientific ...
