Digital technologies have revolutionized everyone’s work and everyday lives. In particular, industrial quality control – which places the most stringent requirements on macroscopic and microscopic imaging and image processing – benefits from innovative, reliable digital technology. Leica Microsystems’ new generation of digital microscopes – Leica DVM5000, DVM3000, and DVM2000 – opens new horizons of mobility and speed.
With the Leica DVM line, the microscopic image is displayed directly on a high-resolution monitor. The streamlined zoom optics reach extremely difficult-to-access surfaces for nondestructive inspection of even the largest stationary parts, which could only be examined with great effort using traditional microscope techniques. Leica digital microscopes not only feature outstanding, high-quality optics, they also offer a wide variety of quantitative analysis options – whether 2D analysis or advanced 3D surface measurements.
Leica DVM5000 – the portable all-in-one-system
For quality control, a sample is usually transferred to the microscope for inspection and analysis. However, some products cannot be transported and do not allow a sample to be taken for microscopic analysis; only nondestructive inspection is possible. The Leica DVM5000 is specifically designed for such situations. Here, the microscope is easily brought to the sample. The digital microscope, including the optics, monitor, and computer, can convert into a compact, portable system with just a few adjustments.
