MACROSCOPE portable microscopes
MACROSCOPE portable microscopes are designed to fill the need for superior image
quality in simple, cost effective configurations for application in research, production,
quality control or wherever superior image
quality is essential. MACROSCOPE
portable microscopes represent a significant
departure from current day trends towards
more sophistication and more elaborate
features. Instead, they offer a simple, basic
design and an ease of use not found in
today's laboratory microscopes but without
compromising optical or mechanical
quality. MACROSCOPE 25X,
MACROSCOPE 45X and MACROSCOPE
60X Power Unit. All three units produce images superior to most laboratory instruments
in resolution, contrast, brightness and field of view but at only a fraction of the cost.
MACROSCOPE 25 is a fixed magnification unit that provides 25X magnification over a
field of view measuring approximately 6mm (1/4 inch). It incorporates a measuring
reticle providing precise measurements. The 25X Macroscope is ideal for insect
identification in turfgrass environments.
The MACROSCOPE 45X and 60X is a fixed magnification unit that is equivalent in
performance to instruments costing thousands of dollars but is much quicker and easier to
use. The 45X and 60X Macroscope is ideal for disease diagnosis on turfgrass plants.
A by-product of the simpler mechanical design is portability. Both units can be used not
only in the field but also for in-place observation of specific portions of large or
immovable objects such as, a bridge girder, an aircraft wing or cement structure, etc.,
without the need for destructive sampling for laboratory analysis.
Applications for both units are diversified and numerous. Archeology, botany,
entomology, forensics, geology, horticulture, numismatics and philately, quality control
and textiles are just a few of the disciplines that can benefit from the use of
MACROSCOPE portable microscopes.
