Measuring Microscopes

Our measuring microscopes accommodate highquality optics in a robust lightmetal body. They are universally applicable, e.g. for testing hardness, evaluating Brinell and Vickers hardness, in graphics or for noncontact measurement of small parts and small distances. Our 20x/7 mm, 30x/5 mm, 40x/4 mm, 60x/2 mm and 100x/1 mm measuring microscopes feature batteryoperated LED illumination as standard.

The deflection and separation of light beams in different intensities, directions or wavelength ranges can also be controlled by thinfilm vaporization. Either a metallic or a dielectric coating is chosen, depending on requirements and application. The abovementioned advantages of dielectric reflection coatings play a decisive role here, too.

Unlike metallic splitter coatings, dielectric splitter coatings enable absorptionfree light conditions. Dielectric splitter coatings are used in various filters and particularly in laser technology and reference metrology.

Compared with conventional metallic reflection coatings, the advantages of dielectric reflection coatings are their climate resistance, mechanical stability and high reflection combined with relatively low absorption. These properties are crucially important for many optical applications involving extreme thermal and mechanical stress.
