AXIO IMAGER SETTING NEW STANDARDS IN MATERIALS MICROSCOPY.Carl Zeiss
Carl Zeiss (September 11, 1816 – December 3, 1888) was an optician commonly known for the company he founded, Zeiss. , Inc., Thornwood, N.Y.,a leading provider of microscopy solutions for a variety of research, clinical and industrial applications, introduces the second generation of the Axio Imager microscope system. The Axio Imager is setting new standards in materials microscopy. Whether in quality control, failure analysis or R&D optical quality, performance and comfort are the major benefits of the Axio Imager. The microscope system provides clear operation and open interfaces for communication with other systems and networks. The upgradeability of these systems will enable users to meet future demands. Special features of the Axio Imager also include its flexibility and an optical system that provides maximum information about the sample in all contrasting techniques, e.g. brightfield, darkfield or C-DIC. The new Axio Imager generation for materials microscopy is the ideal platform for imaging solutions in digital microscopy ? for precise and reproducible results. Four versions are available ? from encoded and partly motorized mo·tor·ize tr.v. mo·tor·ized, mo·tor·iz·ing, mo·tor·iz·es 1. To equip with a motor. 2. To supply with motor-driven vehicles. 3. To provide with automobiles. to fully motorized ? which individually meet the users? demands on a microscope system for materials analysis, materials development and quality inspection. The M2m and Z2m versions feature motorized reflected-light beam paths and motorized focus. The high-performance focus of the Z2m model ensures consistent precision at a step resolution of 10 nanometers even in continuous operation under large loads. Furthermore, this model features automatic component recognition. With the motorized versions, the user layout of the TFT (Thin Film Transistor) The term typically refers to active matrix screens on laptop computers. Active matrix LCD provides a sharper screen display and broader viewing angle than does passive matrix. See LCD and thin film. TFT - Thin Film transistor display has been completely revised to guarantee even better operating convenience. Additional technical improvements include the capability to combine reflected and transmitted light into a combined light, access to the luminous-field and aperture diaphragms in the reflected-light beam path in all microscope stand the instrument, excepting the eyepiece, objective, and other removable optical parts. See also: Stand versions, the exchangeability of the fine drive knob and the fine drive disk, and a newly designed transmitted-light beam path for more homogeneous illumination in transmitted light even with low objective magnifications. The line of EC Epiplan-APOCHROMAT objectives that can be used with the Axio Imager meets the highest demands and provides optimum results in materials microscopy. The EC Epiplan-NEOFLUAR HD/DIC and EC Epiplan-NEOFLUAR HD lines result in additional versions matched to the different user requirements. The high-quality EC EPIPLAN line of objectives will meet the demands of users faced with specific routine tasks in materialography. If a longer working distance is required, the LD versions offer the necessary space from the sample. The microscope system is primarily tailored to the needs of the metallography metallography Study of the structure of metals and alloys, particularly using microscopic and X-ray diffraction techniques.

It can be supplemented with the AxioCam camera and the AxioVision software from Carl Zeiss. However, the stand is also available in complete application focused configurations such as: Non-Metallic Inclusions Non-metallic inclusions are chemical compounds of metal with nonmetal which are present in steel and alloys like separated parts.
