VDM-E/Z Video Direct Microscope
Fatigue-free 3D visual inspection of small parts and assemblies
Squinting into a microscope eyepiece all day long for parts inspection can be very uncomfortable. That's why we developed the VDM system.
Features:
- Stable metal stand with small footprint
- 150W illuminator
- Real-time color imaging on a 15" LCD monitor
The VDM-E/Z™ is available with two interchangeable optics options:
- Patented Extended Depth of Field (EDF) Objective with on-axis lighting
- Zoom Objective with fiber optic ringlight and add-on lenses
The system is complete with fiber optic lighting and is available with a number of options to enhance its versatility. When inspecting small parts from any angle, VDM is the effortless clear choice.
