MAGUS Stereo A6 Stereomicroscope

The MAGUS Stereo A6 stereomicroscope allows you to view objects in three dimensions. Featuring the CMO (Common Main Objective) system, this is a research-grade device that can be used in various fields of science and production. It pairs well with a digital camera and allows you to produce high-quality photos and videos without distortion. The microscope works with transparent and opaque specimens and allows you to examine relief features in great detail.

The Stereo A6 model has a binocular microscope head. The tubes are installed at an angle of 20° to the horizontal plane. It allows the researcher to assume a comfortable position while working. You can install a digital camera in the microscope head, which can be used to conduct public research or reports, illustrating the story with visuals generated in real time. To complement the microscope with a camera, you will need an intermediate attachment with a photo output and a C-mount adapter.

In CMO system microscopes, two optical paths from the eyepieces join in the common main objective. It is located at a 90° angle to the surface of the specimen, which means the researcher sees the object without geometric distortions. A plan achromatic objective with large lenses provides a 11° stereoscopic angle, produces a large field of view, and creates an image with minimal aberrations. The stereomicroscope has a large working distance of 78mm that allows you to study even fairly voluminous samples.

The zoom objective simultaneously changes the focal length and magnification, zoom ratio 6:1. The image in the objective is initially upright; it does not need to be flipped by a system of prisms.

The focus is adjusted using knobs on the stand. The user can adjust the coarse focus. The travel tension can also be adjusted to suit the user.

As the microscope operates in transmitted and reflected light, the stage is equipped with two types of plates. The transparent plate is used to study transparent and translucent samples. It allows you to achieve uniform illumination of the object and diffuses light well. The black-and-white double-sided plate is needed for working with objects that are impenetrable to light: The white surface serves as a background for dark objects, and the black surface is for light ones.

The research object is illuminated by LEDs (operational life – 50,000 hours). The device is equipped with a 6W transmitted light illuminator and a 3W reflected light illuminator that operates using the oblique lighting method.

Microscope elements can be replaced to obtain other magnifications or to supplement the functionality of the device. Eyepieces of different magnifications change the final magnification of the microscope. The main objective affects the width of the field of view and the magnification of the microscope. It also determines its working distance. If an object needs to be measured, calibration slides are used in 0.1mm increments.
