Illumination

Employment of high-intensity LED illumination (Eco-illumination)

Compared to conventional halogen illumination, these high intensity LED sources need only about one third of consuming electricity and last approximately 30 times longer. The MA100N ensures stable sample observation with uniform color temperature even in different light intensity.

Stage

Controlled stability even with heavy samples/ Boasts superior durability

The MA-SR-N Rectangular Stage was developed especially for the MA100N. The three-plate structure allows for observation of heavy samples, such as a grinder resin mounted samples.

Compact Body

Redesigned to be smaller

Designed for LED illumination, the footprint is 11% smaller than conventional models, allowing users to have more installation choices.

Aperture Diaphragm

Standard with MA100N

The epi illuminator comes standard with a variable aperture diaphragm to control image contrast and depth of field.

Accessories

Basic stage set

A triple-platform stage structure lets you use heavy samples.

NIS-Elements

Using a tablet PC

Simply installing NIS-Elements L on a tablet PC enables setting and control of DS-Fi3/ DS-Ri2 microscope cameras, live image display, and image acquisition.

A wide variety of tools

NIS-Elements L enables the conducting of simple measurements on images, with input of lines and comments. These can also be written onto and saved with the image, and measurement data can be output.

Scene Mode

Ten camera setting patterns for optimal color reproduction and contrast for each microscope light source, observation method and type of sample, as well as custom settings, can be selected.

  • Wafer / IC
  • Metal, Ceramic / Plastic
  • Circuit board
  • Flat Panel Display
