Lambda Photometrics has a new generation of versatile, high resolution digital microscopes from Scalar in Japan The Scalar DG-2A is a complete system based around a 2.3Mpixel digital camera, with a CompactFlash memory card

The range of lenses and accessories, along with the level of definition and portability, make this a versatile and important tool for any organisation involved in research or quality control in the automotive, manufacturing, aeronautical, aerospace, electronics and forensics industries.

This is the same system that is used by NASA to inspect the wings and fuselage of the space shuttles.

The images can be viewed on the integrated 2in LCD monitor, then can be transferred via memory cards to a PC or fed directly to a monitor via a video output.

The large range of available lenses means that video or still images can be acquired from a huge range of situations.

High resolution lenses to x1000 magnification, micro-macro lenses to x100 magnification and standard lenses of x30 to x200 lead the option list that is supported by a wide range of specialist lenses including; fisheye, coaxial illumination, zoom (to x200 magnification), bore, side viewing, UV/visible, infra-red/visible, side lighting, endoscopes, nonshadow and phase contrast lenses.

Included with the basic kit are a battery, charger and a PCMCIA adapter card, with options of wireless adapters, hoods, microscope stands, and larger capacity memory cards.

The system is transported in an attractive lightweight carry case making it ideal for use in fieldwork, on-site or in nondestructive testing applications.

Applications such as recording automotive paint imperfections, insects, textile fibres, windscreen impacts and searching inside equipment and crevices are common. Request a free brochure from Lambda Photometrics ...
