MICROSCOPES

Microscope comes from a Greek Word Mikro’s: Small, Skopein: To look / See

An instrument which is used for viewing objectsthat are to small to be seen by a naked or

unaided eye

HISTORY

• Almost 1200 years ago microscopes were traced by Abbass Ibn Firanass

• The first true microscope was prepared in1596 at Middelburg, Netherlands

Leica Compound Microscopes

Leica DM500, 750,1000, 2000 & 3000 with outstanding ergonomics

Unique Solutions!

Ergonomics/health

Comfort/ease of use

Reliability of results

Optimisation of workflow

Durability/economical solutions

Flexibility

Features and benefits

Ergonomic tilting tube with 15° viewing angle

Height adjustable focus knobs

Symmetrical alignment of focus knobs and XY-drive

Ergomodules and Ergolifts

Ergonomics in the clinical environment

Ergonomics Viewing Angle (15°)

Optimal head posture

Relaxed neck and shoulder muscles

Straight back

Therefore significantly

reduced risk of RSI

Ergonomics / flexibility tilting angle

Allows to change head posture during the day

Also perfect for multi-user environment

More relaxed posture

Reduced risk of RSI

Adjustable focus knobs

Easily adjustable focus knobs for different hand sizes

Forearms and hands remain relaxed on the table

More relaxed and tension free posture reduces risk of RSI

Patented feature

Ergonomics Symmetrical Operation

Symmetrical alignment of focus knobs and XY-drive leads to …

… symmetrical posture of shoulders (avoids twisting) …

… therefore less pain after hours of work at the microscope

Ideal solutions for different body heights

Ergomodules increase the distance between eye point and focus knobs

Especially suitable when no other intermediate modules are used (e.g. fluorescence axis)

30 mm or 60 mm height Allow relaxed posture

even for tall users

Ideal solutions for different body heights

Ergolifts increase the distance between eye point and bench

Available in two sizes (for DM1000/DM1000LED and DM2000/DM2500/DM3000

Feature tension-free posture of the hands

Enable hours of fatigue-free working

Colour coded aperture diaphragm

HI PLAN SL (synchronized light) objectives

Ergoknobs (soft control knobs)

“Intelligent” automated microscope Leica DM3000

Comfort and Ease of use

Aperture diaphragm adjustment “at a glance”

Coloured markings on objectives and condenser match up

Also available with Pol condenser

Comfortable solution especially for beginners (reduced training period)

Synchronized Light Objectives

4x, 10x, and 20x HI PLAN SL brightness synchronized with 40x objective

Prevent eyestrain

No need to adjust brightness when changing magnification

Colour impression remains unchanged with different magnifications

Comfortable (and ergonomic) solution

Soft Control Knobs

Removable rubber parts on main controls

Convenient surface feel

Highly sensitive control

Ideal for multi-user environment (can be removed easily)

Single Hand Operation of XY-drive & Focus

Flat focus knobs allow one hand operation of focus and XY-drive

Use of counting machines or taking notes is possible at the same time

Comfortable solution in order to reduce stress

Single Hand loading of slides

Improved thickness and thus stability

Real one hand loading of slides for easy operation

Alternatively traditional handling with „knob“ is possible

Available for ErgoStages (one or two slides), and rotating stage

Reliability of results with fluorescence

Fluorescence illuminatorfor DM1000 / DM1000 LED

Three positions for filter cubes in a slider, easy exchange

50 W Hg lamp housing available too(economical solution)

Reliability of results - Fluorescence

Superb Optics Family of HI PLAN objectives

with excellent flatness, contrast, and colour correction enable reliable results

New: HI PLAN 100x/0.80 dry avoids mess with immersion oil

Ideal price-performance ratio 1,25x overview objective

available (HXC PL Fluotar)

Reliability of results

Patented temperature compensation

Therefore no focus drift

Perfect for long-term experiments

Imaging Module

Fits between stand and any of the Leica tubes

Retrofitting solution: purchase of extra trinocular tube not necessary

Integrated and centrable C-mount

100% light routed to the camera

Adaptation Preferences for User

Stage lock (particularly suitable for customers who move the slides by hand)

Can be mounted in the same position as the coaxial drive or on the opposite side when using an ErgoStage

Ideal for multi-user environment, haematology, when operating counting machines, taking notes etc

Durable Ceramic stage

Available as ErgoStage or rotating stage

Colour of ceramic surface delivers better contrast

Different sizes for DM1000/DM1000LED, and DM2000/DM2500/DM3000, for one or two slides
