1.2 Instrument description and main features
Two models of the Axiotech microscopes are available: Axiotech and Axiotech
vario
. Both are upright
microscopes with a medium stand size. The Axiotech models are also equipped with transmitted-light
illumination which is integrated in the stand. Furthermore, Axiotech microscopes feature the
characteristic pyramid design, while the Axiotech
vario
models are based on a column stand.
Standardized customer interfaces for the Axio line of objectives/eyepieces, illuminators and tubes, and
interfaces on the camera/TV port, permit the use of a variety of additional components. The modular
design and the user-friendly and clear arrangement of controls guarantee the fast adaptation of the
instruments to the required application.
A new reflected-light optical system in the time-tried ICS line (Infinity Color-corrected System) guarantees
a high optical performance for all techniques (field number 23, tube factor 1
×
).
The objectives in the Epiplan line are universal objectives. There are two different groups: "Epiplan" for
brightfield and "Epiplan HD" for the additional use of reflected-light darkfield. Of course, all the other
objectives in the ICS line can also be used.
Depending on the configuration, Axiotech microscopes are equipped with - or prepared for - a 30 W or
100 W halogen illuminator for reflected-light applications and with a 30 W halogen illuminator for
transmitted-light applications. The lamp voltage is adjustable and can be read off a LED line on the
Axiotech. The correct color temperature for color photography is reached automatically at the end stop.
The new 6V 30W wide-range power unit for line voltages between 100 and 240 V AC is integrated in
the stand of the Axiotech 30 microscope. The Axiotech 100 stand contains the time-tried, stabilized
12 V 100 W power unit which operates in the two switchable line voltage ranges 100 .. 127 or 220 ...
240 V AC. For the Axiotech
vario
100, external power units are provided, depending on which illuminator is
used. Before start-up, the user of these power units must ensure that the voltage of the power unit and
the line voltage are identical.
The Axiotech and Axiotech
vario
reflected-light microscopes are equipped with a camera port for
photo/video documentation as a standard feature.
Photomicrography applications are possible with various adapters and 35 mm SLR (mirror reflex) cameras
from various manufacturers, or the two microscope camera systems from Carl Zeiss,
MC 80
DX
and MC
200
CHIP
(35 mm and large format).
Videomicroscopy and documentation can also be performed using commercially available video
cameras..
