Advantages
Ready to go out of the box
There is no need for a technician to screw things together at the customer site. Our microscopes ship fully assembled and ready to use right out of the box.
Plug & Play
Our microscopes are easy to setup and easy to use. They are designed fundamentally to be used by anyone in any location.
Multimodality at its best
Experience the convenience and power of multimodal imaging in a flexible, upgradable, modular package.
No optical table
There is no need for an optical table. Our microscopes are designed to be used anywhere, by anyone.
Energy efficient
