Magnifiers are inspection instruments that are used to magnify a product or part detail via a lens system. Magnifiers are inspection or assembly instruments that enlarge the image of a product or feature. The level of magnification (generally less... Search by Specification | Learn More about Magnifiers

...microscope, the magnifying glass, provides 10X magnification. The compound microscope has two systems of lenses for greater magnification: an ocular eyepiece and an objective lens. Using the proper microscope accessories and supplies can enhance any... Learn More about Microscope Accessories and Supplies

...images of objects. There are two basic types of devices. Stereomicroscopes use two light paths for three-dimensional (3D) viewing. They provide high depth perception, low resolution, and low magnification. Some devices include a built-in light source... Search by Specification | Learn More about Optical and Light Microscopes

...and are available in 5X, 10X, 15X, and 20X designations. Wide field eyepieces have a larger diameter and a wider field of view. Microscope lenses and microscope objectives are used with various types of optical filters. Color filters include a wide range... Learn More about Microscope Lenses and Objectives

Specialty microscopes are designed for specific applications such as metallurgy or gemology. They use specialized techniques or technologies such as acoustics to produce magnification. Search by Specification | Learn More about Specialty Microscopes

For instance, a 10X probe reduces the measured signal to 0.1 of its amplitude, allowing the test instrument to measure signals ten times larger than what its maximum range allows. Choices typically include 1X, 10X, 100X, 500X, and 1000X. There are many... Search by Specification | Learn More about Electrical Test Probes

Fresnel lenses resemble a planoconvex or planoconcave lens that is cut into narrow rings and flattened. If the steps are narrow, the surface of each step is generally made conical and not spherical. Search by Specification | Learn More about Fresnel Lenses

...scattered or secondary emission of the specimen where the probe strikes it. The magnification is controlled by the length or area scanned. Transmission electron microscopes (TEM) pass image-forming rays through the specimen being observed. Contrast... Search by Specification | Learn More about Electron Microscopes
