![]() Brightfield/Darkfield Switching Lever |
GX51 is available for brightfield, darkfield, DIC, and simple polarization observations. Switching between brightfield and darkfield is simple and easy with an ergonomic efficiency. Operator controls are located in front of the frame for ease of operation and user comfort when inspecting large numbers of samples. |
The use of motorized components can save time and cut costs when large quantities of samples require analysis A single handset is available to quickly control the rotation of objectives. For higher levels of speed and analysis, Stream Image Analysis Software is will manage additional components such as the motorized filter wheel and automated scanning stages.
UIS2 optics delivers bright, sharp, high-resolution images suitable for all observation methods: brightfield, darkfield, differential interference contrast, polarization, and fluorescence. Designed with specific wave front aberration controls and specialty coatings for color fidelity, UIS2 optics ensure images are true to form and highly resolved.
