Olympus’ CX23 Microscope Wins Prestigious iF Design Award

Olympus’ outstanding microscope design has been recognised with the highly regarded iF Design Award for its CX23 routine and educational upright microscope. Acknowledged as a symbol of design excellence around the world, the iF Award receives over 5,000 submissions from 70 countries yearly.

Keeping the user’s workflow in mind, the CX23 microscope features an extremely compact, robust and ergonomic design, enabling exceptional comfort and ease-of-use for users at all levels of expertise. Its durable LED light source ensures a long service time of over 20,000 hours as well as low energy consumption. The sturdy metal frame and the low weight (5.9 kg) of the CX23 make it a robust and cost-effective choice for use in the field as well as for many educational and routine applications.

The clever design of the CX23 is combined with Olympus’ high-quality optics. A field number of 20 ensures a higher field-of-view than other microscopes in this class and the plan achromat objectives provide excellent image flatness over the entire field-of-view. Furthermore, the left and right diopter adjustment enables easy eye focus and comfortable observation for all users of this award-winning microscope. These features, realised with the customer in mind, make the CX23 a high-performing, reliable choice of microscope for routine observation in educational, routine or in-the-field environments.
