3D microscope aids zero defect quality
The VH-X digital microscope is an indispensable tool for accurate inspection and analysis in a wide variety of laboratory, quality assurance and manufacturing environments.
The VH-X digital microscope is an indispensable tool for accurate inspection and analysis in a wide variety of laboratory, quality assurance and manufacturing environments Superior depth of field is achieved that is up to 20 times greater than that of conventional microscopes, allowing accurate and sharp representation of any point even if the target surface has large depressions or protrusions

Contact sensor provides simple measurements
The IP67 rated GT incorporates a linear ball-bearing "air-push" spindle tip that pneumatically extends and retracts for each measurement cycle.
Displacement sensor handles challenging surfaces
Precise, stable measurements can be easily and accurately obtained on any type of surface or material, including black rubber, translucent and transparent targets and reflective or mirrored surfaces.
The need to re-focus is completely eliminated, ensuring speedy observation.
The VH-X enables visual assessment of profiles that have been difficult to understand with 2D images.
Coming standard with a simple to use 3D display function, using the industry first DFD method to enable image composition using less sampling data, the VH-X allows the user to assess the profile at a glance and observe the target from various angles.
Magnified images are displayed onto the built-in 15in colour LCD monitor, allowing several people to monitor the target at once and discuss the images simultaneously.
Observation can be performed freely without the need to place the target on a stage and without the need to disassemble, break, cut or process the target.
High-resolution images can be recorded to the VH-X large-capacity hard disk, capable of recording up to 3500 image files, or transferred through a LAN network or across the Internet.
Alternatively images may be immediately printed in colour when connected to Keyence's 5Mpixel high-definition digital colour printer. Request a free brochure from Keyence (UK) ...
