Optical inspection
Industrial technology
Optical inspection in electronics manufacturing, quality assurance and research requires equipment with defined magnification, reproducible image quality and a stable mechanical structure. The range covers digital hand microscopes (Dino-Lite EDGE), stereomicroscopes (Vision Lynx EVO, Zeiss Stemi 305/508, Mantis Elite), digital and video microscopes (Vision EVO CAM II), stands from 4H Jena, Pulch & Lorenz and Zeiss, cold light sources (Schott, Starlight, Zeiss) as well as lenses, eyepieces and hand magnifiers from Eschenbach.
The product range extends from a simple handheld USB device for spot checks to a fully equipped stereo workstation with ergonomic stand, motorised focusing and an external cold light source for continuous inspection. Stands and illumination components are combinable across manufacturers provided objective diameter and connection geometry match.
