MAGUS Stereo 8B Stereo Microscope

MAGUS Stereo 8B is a binocular stereoscopic microscope with a rotating head. Thanks to it, it is possible to work on three-dimensional samples. The microscope generates a three-dimensional image with a large depth of field and transmits an authentic image of the object. This allows you to perform the necessary manipulations on the object. The Greenough type microscope with independent optical channels has a stereoscopic angle of 15°, and the working area varies from 105 mm (basic configuration) up to 177 mm (optional). The basic methods of observation with the device in transmitted and reflected light (bright field) can be supplemented by the dark field method and simple polarization with accessories.

The microscope head includes two tubes and is completed with 10x magnification eyepieces with a 22 mm field of view. A digital camera can be mounted on one of the tubes instead of an eyepiece. The head rotates around its axis and can be placed in any position.

The main magnification is provided by the zoom lens. Together with the smooth zoom, it adjusts the focal length of the optical system so that the object is always in focus. The MAGUS Stereo 8B microscope has a zoom ratio of 8.4:1. You can change the magnification or field of view as well as adjust the working distance by means of auxiliary objective lenses.

The sharpness is adjustable by coaxially positioned knobs, which regulate the fine and coarse focus. The fine focus is recommended for magnifications greater than 40x. The handles are on the sides of the stand. The user can adjust the stiffness of the coarse focus path.

The microscope can be used to observe transparent and opaque samples. For this reason, the stage is equipped with two plates: a transparent one and a black and white one. The first one is necessary for observations in transmitted light conditions: The object receives a soft and homogeneous illumination. The second plate is installed when using reflected light. The surface of the plate must be in contrast with the object.

The object is illuminated by two LED illuminators, transmitted and reflected light. Both have a power of 3 W with a lifespan of 50,000 hours.

This line of microscopes is complemented by a wide range of accessories. The user can purchase the necessary eyepieces and auxiliary objective lenses to adjust the magnification, field of view and working distance. Complete the set with a digital camera to capture observations or display them on a large screen. Together with a camera or an eyepiece with a graduated scale, you can use a calibration slide to measure a sample or its individual elements. For effective observation of a sample, there are several types of illuminators: a classic ring illuminator, a ring illuminator with a polarizer for studying smooth metal objects (removes reflections), a ring illuminator with sector control to adjust the correct incidence of light and shadow, and a flexible neck illuminator that can be aimed at a specific point. To install the microscope head in the optimal position, you can select a correct stand. Placing the object on the mechanical stage allows it to move along the two axes smoothly and regularly. For polarized light or dark field observations, the microscope can be equipped with a dark field condenser and a polarization device. If the condenser is used with a gem clip, the stereoscopic microscope becomes an excellent tool for jewelry work.
