    Portable Benchtop Video Microscopes with Built-In Monitor

    Image of ProductInUse. Front orientation. Microscopes. Portable Benchtop Video Microscopes with Built-In Monitor.
    View images and video of extra-small details right from your manufacturing floor without needing an outlet nearby. Great for collaboration, the monitor on these microscopes is big enough for multiple people to see. For larger groups, connect an additional monitor with an HDMI cord (not included) to show what’s under the lens on two screens at once. To save what you’re seeing for later, you can store high-resolution photos and video on the microSD card or transfer it directly to a computer with a USB cord (not included). Use the included computer software to measure lines, circles, and angles of the item you’re viewing—the software stores your measurements too.
    A built-in LED ring light creates ultra-bright, shadow-free light, so you don't need an external light source. The light can also be adjusted to reduce glare on reflective objects.

    Vertical Benchtop Optical Comparators

    By projecting a magnified shadow or image of your part onto a screen, these optical comparators give you an easy way to measure and inspect its precise features. They work similarly to overhead projectors, but with fixed magnification to preserve proportions. Because of how easy they are to set up and use, they’re a staple in most machine shops. They shine light from above, so they’re best for inspecting flat parts, such as gaskets and O-rings. Unlike traditional optical comparators, these comparators are compact to fit easily on a benchtop.
    To use these comparators, choose profile or surface lighting. Profile lighting creates a shadow of your part, which you can use to plot points for precise measurements. To plot each point, move the stage the part rests on until the point lines up with the crosshair on the projector screen. For precision, the stage moves in increments thinner than a sheet of paper. Surface lighting makes these comparators work like an illuminated magnifier, blanketing the part with even light to reveal scratches, dents, and other surface flaws.
    Save the measurements you’ve gathered for later by exporting the data as a text file using an RS-232 cord (not included).

    Graphic Display Screen

    Optical comparators with edge detection increase accuracy and efficiency by reducing human error. No need to identify each edge yourself with the crosshair—these comparators register whether they are passing over your object's shadow or a gap, such as a hole or cutout. The graphic display screen shows a visual representation of the part you’re measuring, making it easy to identify and measure specific features. To make sure each part is inspected the same way, create a program that guides anyone using the comparator on what steps to follow.

    Benchtop Video Microscopes with Built-In Monitor

    Image of ProductInUse. Front orientation. Microscopes. Benchtop Video Microscopes with Built-In Monitor.
    View a live feed of extreme details—from pores in raw materials to connection points on finished parts—right on the screen of these microscopes. These microscopes have an LCD monitor that’s big enough for multiple people to see, making them great for collaboration. For larger groups, connect an additional monitor with an HDMI cord (not included) to show what’s under the lens on two screens at once. With the built-in camera, snap high-resolution photos and record video. These microscopes come with software you can use to measure lines, diameters, and angles of the item you’re viewing on the monitor. Use the included USB flash drive to save photos, videos, and measurements for later or transfer everything to a computer.
    An LED ring light creates ultra-bright, shadow-free light, so you don't need an external light source. Each quadrant of the light is adjustable to help optimize brightness. The light also attaches magnetically for quick removal.
