Equipment designers save substantial engineering and development costs by integrating Olympus' well-known microscope frames into their product instead of designing optical systems themselves. Olympus supplies upright and inverted frames and stereo microscopes for applications such as spectroscopy, semiconductor inspection, digital pathology, and automated cell morphology.

Upright Reflected & Transmitted Light Frames

Olympus upright microscope frames are modularly designed to allow for application-specific configurations and employ Kohler illumination to provide even distribution of light across the back focal plane of the lens for optimal image formation. The infinity space above the illuminator provides space for optical assemblies and laser inputs.

Olympus offers two series of upright microscopes:

BX3M Series

	The BX3M series is designed for reflected light applications and has the ability to incorporate reflected light brightfield, darkfield, DIC, and polarized imaging mainly.
	>See the product information

BX3 Series

	The BX3 series is designed for transmitted light and fluorescence as primary imaging techniques mainly.
	>See the product information

Inverted Reflected & Transmitted Light Frames

	The new IX3 series of inverted microscope frames, for reflected and transmitted light observation, has an open deck design that allows for integration of intermediate attachments, custom optical assemblies, and laser integration mainly.

Motorized Frames

Motorized upright microscope frames are available when software control of hardware is required—functions that involve the nosepiece, mirror cube turret, aperture stop, and/or filter wheels. Olympus can provide command codes, drivers, and SDKs for software integration.

Stereo Microscopes

SZ51 & SZ61

With SZ51 and SZ61 stereo microscopes, users can select from 45- or 60-degree eyepiece inclination to best suit the mounting position, and a trinocular version is available for digital camera integration. All SZ51/61 stereo microscope bodies and main accessories discharge static electricity from 1000V down to 100V in less than 0.2 seconds, protecting the equipment and preventing damage to samples. Olympus also offers a wide selection of various bonder and prober arms for mounting of equipment.

SZX16

The SZX16 incorporates ultra-refined Galilean optics—the industry standard for advanced stereomicroscopy. This stereo microscope's enhanced power is assured by an exceptionally high zoom range and increased focal depth contributing to high quality during macro observation at low magnification, as well as microstructural observation at high magnification. Observations by parallel light paths and by digital imaging, plus ease of use, are additional features that help users realize the full potential of stereomicroscopy.
