Borehole microscope
Intended mainly for automobile manufacturing, but offering potential for laboratory work, the ZKG borehole microscope from Klughammer is equipped with a CCD camera
An infinity-corrected microscope is required.
The extension tubes are available to adjust path lengths of other objectives on the turret.
The PMO is available for RMS threads as well as for Leica, Nikon, Mitutoyo, Olympus, and Zeiss microscopes.
The PMO Piezoelectric NanoPositioning System allows the automatic capturing of a stack of images in combination with the Klug ScopePro software.
This PMO is used where high resolution with nanosteps is required.
The stack of images may be rendered to a 2D image or if captured as a confocal stack with the white light/fluorescence light CGS OptoLine microscope a 3D image may be rendered as well.
