PathStereo: Micro-Dissection Imaging Work Station The PathStereo combines Zeiss stereo optics with SPOT imaging to provide superior performance and comfort in a workstation for micro-dissection and imaging of biopsies. PathSuite software provides hands-free operation of camera via foot pedal or voice commands. Images are easily annotated, and specimens measured directly on the touch screen. The barcode scanner option simplifie…
TLB1000: Epi-Illumination Stand for Stereomicroscope The TLB1000 series provides a simple, stable support base for incident light/epi-illumination applications. These stands support most microscope models making them a perfect replacement for inexpensive original equipment bases or as a base for orphaned stereo microscope heads. The TLB1000 base can be purchased by itself with a Volpi fiber optic illuminator, or as a full imag…
TLB4000: Compact Substage Illumination Stand for Stereomicroscope The TLB4000's large work area, combined with its built-in 20 watt illumination, make it an economical and versatile choice for the crowded lab environment. The 6 volt, 20 watt power supply is continuously variable from 3 to 6 volts. It powers a high efficiency Osram Xenophot halogen lamp with a light output of 480 lumens (39 candle power). The high efficiency op…
SMS15/16: Medium Duty Boom Stand for Stereomicroscopes This boom stand series is suited for routine inspection of large samples where continuous horizontal movement of the stereo-microscope is not required. Tried and true design, premium materials and precision machining have made SMS15 & 16 boom stands the standard for high quality, durability and economy for years. The precision ground shafts slide on nylon bearing surfaces…
SMS25: Articulating Arm Stand for StereomicroscopesPerfect for use in a cramped work area, this stand series provides easy positioning of medium duty stereomicroscopes through all three dimensions x-y-z and can “fold” up against the wall when not in use. An additional space-saving advantage for this system is that the support arm requires no back clearance, unlike boom stand systems. The z-dimension movement is assisted with a…
SMS20: Heavy Duty Ball Bearing Boom Stand for Stereomicroscopes This boom stand series is designed for support of large research grade microscopes while providing them with fluid motion in a horizontal plane. The horizontal arm is mounted on linear ball bearing units in the solid aluminum cross slider. Locking the arm in position is quickly accomplished with secure Soft-Grip knobs. The stereo microscope is mounted via the SPOT…
The X-Cite® 120Q system uses a 120-watt lamp to deliver rich spectral excitation with a uniformly illuminated field of view. The proprietary Intelli-Lamp® provides more than 2000 hours of life. The lamp is pre-aligned so changing it is a simple, one-step process. The optional adjustable iris allows the user to set the level of illumination. Ideally suited to routine fluorescence assays and use in multi-user facilities. The X…
