Axio Imager - clearly better optics |
Axio Imager redefines the boundaries of optical performance, making even more details visible and enabling you to obtain even more information. From the illumination through to the beam path, and from the objectives through to the camera and software interfaces, everything has been optimised. The result is an unprecedented level of optical quality and contrast, especially when working with fluorescence, DIC or in Darkfield.
The IC2S beam path – innovation for higher quality
 The beam path, redesigned for Axio Imager, is the result of the systematic optimisation of the proven Carl Zeiss ICS infinity optics. Its outstanding benefits include high image contrast, perfect homogeneity and unprecedented resolution. It is such an advance that we felt it deserved a new name - IC2S – the Infinity Contrast & Colour Corrected System.
Free access to the beam path – more flexibility
With its freely accessible infinity space, Axio Imager allows you to interface additional components, such as light sources and detectors. This means it is extremely easy to build your own individual system solutions, enabling you to realise all your research ideas.
High-performance objectives – seeing even more details
We have redesigned and expanded our ranges of proven high-performance objectives especially for Axio Imager.
- The EC Plan-Neofluar universal objectives. Minimisation of stray-light results in a clear increase in contrast, a decisive factor in all microscopic techniques.
- The Plan-Apochromat 63x/1.4 Oil objective is impressive not only because of outstanding point spread function but also because of its improved chromatic correction.
- The LCI Plan-Neofluar 25x/0.8 and 63x/1.3 Imm Korr objectives have been devised specifically for live cell imaging techniques and optimised for critical temperature intervals.
Perfect DIC – more homogeneous illumination
 Axio Imager boasts consistent interference contrast with all magnifications from 5x to 100x over the whole field of view. Time-consuming shading correction is unnecessary - a boon for digital imaging. Another decisive advantage is that you can choose between two DIC sliders for the Plan-Apochromat 63x/1.4 and 100x/1.4 objectives: HR for highest resolution or HC for highest contrast – both optimally adapted to your application.
LED illumination – constant colour temperature
The best alternative to conventional halogen illumination, LED Illumination offers a number of decisive advantages:
- constant, brightness-independent colour temperature
- low heat radiation
- high durability.
The LED illumination system also includes a filter mount to allow individual adjustment of the colour temperature to match your specific requirements. It is fitted directly under the condenser, in accordance with the “fixed Köhler principle”, for simple adjustment with all contrasting techniques. Or, it can be positioned instead of the traditional halogen lamp for full Köhler illumination.
