ZEISS Smartzoom 5 Automated Digital Microscope

The ZEISS Smartzoom 5 is a smart digital microscope that may be used for quality control and assurance in nearly any industry. It is so simple to operate that even unskilled individuals will create outstanding results.

It is quick and straightforward to set up, completely automatedand equipped with specific quality assurance and quality control components. Smartzoom 5 has a macro recording mode that streamlines the process of repeating sample analyses of the same kind step by step.

ZEISS puts the IQ in Industrial Quality with Smartzoom 5.

Highlights

Smart Design

The Smartzoom 5 is always aware of the state of all key components and corrects for component variances

Quality assurance and quality control analysis (QA/QC) technologies are built into the Smartzoom 5

The optical engine, which combines three functions — zoom, overview cameraand coaxial illumination — in one component, comes standard with the digital microscope

Smart Workflow

Presets and enhancements for images help users achieve the finest results. Automatic measurements are possible with this digital microscope, thanks to a variety of picture algorithms

A macro recording option on the Smartzoom 5 improves the workflow for repeating sample analyses of the same kind in a step-by-step way

A seamless macro-to-detail workflow is supported by the integrated QA/QC visual user interface, which combines with gesture control to allow for simple navigation at all times

Smart Output

The guided workflow of the system, together with calibrated components, allows for user-independent measurement results

Users can quickly annotate images and export reports to Word templates

Smart Design

Users may choose from three distinct objectives with magnifications ranging from 10x to 1011x with Smartzoom 5. The bayonet interface powers the segmentable LED ring light built into the objectives. Make use of intelligent safety features: if the objective comes into contact with the sample or user’s hand, the motor will instantly stop, safeguarding both the user and the sample.

Smart Workflow

Smartzoom 5’s integrated QA/QC visual user interface supports a continuous macro-to-detail workflow, making orientation straightforward. Separate lenses are used to record the whole sample surface. Users can immediately observe which sections of the samples are suitable for microscopic examination.

The process is neatly stored away, ready to repeat the microscopic study step by step again and again. Simply pick the best image from the preview images or use live image-enhancing capabilities like HDR, noise filtering, sharpeningand stabilization for the best presentation.

Smart Output

The swingarm of the microscope allows the user to observe features on the sample surface at angles ranging from -45° to +45°. The pivot point of the swivel axis stays steady while the user does so, and the focus stays squarely on the sample.

Shuttle & Find

Users may effortlessly move regions of interest from Smartzoom 5 to the electron microscope using Shuttle & Find. With the digital microscope, define a region of interest, and then quickly reposition your ROI in the electron microscope. Then, to make a new overlay image, align both images.
