Large motorized stage for Keyence VHX digital microscope

Extended scan area of up to 300mm

Now even large specimens can be scanned with the Keyence VHX microscope.

Our motorized desktop stand extends the travel range of the VHX digital microscope up to 300mm. The easy to use control software ScanX allows more automated scanning and larger stitching as well as import of position lists / map files. Optionally transmitted light available.
Thereby we combine the high functionality of the VHX with our sophisticated positioning and control unit to an optimally matched overall system.

Technical data for standard system:

XY travel range: 300 x 300mm

Aperture for transmitted light: 250 x 250mm

Z-travel range: 45mm* motorized incl. autofocus

* An additional manual Z adjustment is optionally available.
