Illumination/Boomstands
Precision Lighting and Stable Support for Advanced Imaging
Lighting & Stands
Illumination and boomstand solutions deliver consistent, high-performance lighting and stable microscope positioning for demanding imaging and analysis workflows. Featuring homogeneous, high-intensity cold LED light sources, these systems offer variable intensity control, low power consumption, and maintenance-free operation with up to 50,000 hours of LED lifetime. Options include ringlights, line lights, gooseneck light guides, and oblique illumination configurations—many compatible with a wide range of ZEISS CL and SCHOTT KL series light guides, including compact systems like the SCHOTT KL 2500 with a small, narrow footprint for space-constrained labs. Direct-to-objective mounting enables shadow-free illumination, while segmentation capabilities, polarizers, diffusers, and UV options allow precise control of light direction and contrast. Boomstands and mounting solutions are available in multiple arm styles, bearing types, mount diameters, and base or table clamp configurations to support virtually all stereomicroscope makes, ensuring ergonomic positioning, repeatable alignment, and exceptional imaging clarity for both routine inspection and advanced surface analysis.
