3D optical microscope

Equipment description

This digital Keyence microscope (VHX-900F) has various features such as large depth-of-field, free-angle observation, and depth composition and 3D display functions. The large depth-of-field is a fundamental feature of the VHX Digital Microscope that greatly increases ease-of-use and image quality. The lenses, camera, and graphics engine are designed to optimize depth-of-field, resolution, and brightness. The free-angle observation provides the view an object from any angle by tilting the lens up to 90 degrees and rotating the stage 360 degrees. Because the optics can be moved, observing a target from various angles can be done without having to manipulate the part by hand. Even when a target’s surface has significant variation in height, a fully-focused image can be obtained instantly by compiling images at different focal planes. After creating the composite image, the focal position data can then be used to construct a 3D model.
