Microscope Head revisited.

Many scientists face a dilemma one day:

I have a brilliant idea how to improve my microscope, but I cannot manage all the opto-mechanics involved: precision focusing, sample mounting and positioning, objective replacement…

Then, our microscope head comes in handy.

MARKET CONTEXT

The market of optical microscopes, dominated by a few big competing players, has a strong footing with constant growth, driven mainly by increasing investments in biotechnology and other scientific disciplines. Our solution is directed to microscope producers who want to strengthen their competitive position through innovation which increases usability, safety and convenience of use of the microscopes.

INNOVATION

We offer the innovative next generation optical microscope head. With the horizontal layout, instead of the vertical arrangement of most microscopes, it provides better access to the light paths and optical components, improved mechanical stability as well as increased safety of the microscope users. It is particularly suited for all types of custom-built optical microscopes, replacing traditionally used opto-mechanical components systems (eg. Thorlabs or Optoform cage systems) or commercial microscope bodies.

The head is designed for easy integration with external optical components and sub-systems: light sources, detectors, imaging optics etc.

KEY BENEFITS​
  • Flexibility
  • Convenience
  • ​Base platform for custom design
  • Unmatched light beam access 
    throughout the setup.
  • Streamlined integration with 
    external optical components and systems
  • High mechanical stability due to
    compact design.
