The New SX45 Stereo Zoom Microscope… optimising performance & affordability

More than 50 years of design and manufacture of optical solutions have delivered the SX45 to appeal to the budget conscious decision maker, whilst affordable, it maintains the optical excellence you would expect to find on an optical solution from Vision Engineering Limited. The SX45 sees the new stereo viewer as an ideal investment for the budget conscious engineer looking for a stereo microscope with high performance optics to inspect and rework their PCBs.

What makes the SX45 a choice investment is the combination of optical excellence and affordability. Continuing costs for running the microscope are kept to a minimum through long-life LED illumination.

A trinocular viewing attachment to be utilised for the SX45, with the option for a digital or USB camera to be used simultaneously so comparable images of PCB can be reported. Additionally, multimedia solutions are available for image archiving, acquisition, processing, analysis and documentation, a fundamental function for most companies optimising their traceability and for checking PCBs and components against the gold standard.

Available in a variety of stand options including: the bench stand for optimum stability and substage illumination; the boom mount for greater working distances and added versatility; the articulated arm, ideal for large and bespoke work stations/benches requiring extended reach.

The zoom ratio is 6.3:1 with the greater magnification of x50, twinned with long working distances and a large depth of field, offers operators optimised functionality for inspection and rework.
