ZEISS | Axio Zoom.V16 for Material Research

The Axio Zoom.V16 is an advanced on-axis zoom microscope that provides impressive 16x magnification with high resolution. Its large working distance allows seamless zooming from an overview image to the finest details, all with a single objective lens. Large images at low to medium magnification can be effortlessly and quickly merged into high-resolution tile images.

Zoom from Large Objects to Fine Details

The Axio Zoom.V16 combines powerful 16x zoom with a high numerical aperture, enabling up to double the resolution even at low and medium magnifications. This eliminates the need for complex image stitching. Complete components can be captured with just a few images, significantly speeding up workflows and reducing the potential for errors.

Tailored Zoom Modes for Your Applications

The Axio Zoom.V16 offers different modes that can be selected at the touch of a button to suit various applications:

• Brightness Mode: For maximum brightness in fluorescence images across the entire zoom range.
• Eyepiece Mode: Ideal for observations through eyepieces with conventional lighting, allowing maximum depth of field for large object fields and highest resolution at high magnification.
• Camera Mode: Adapts to the camera's performance to provide an optimal balance between resolution and depth of field.
  
  

EpiRel for Enhanced Image Contrast

The EpiRel slider in the Epi-Illuminator Z allows for slight adjustments to the illumination direction, making textures and small edges more visible, especially at high magnifications. This technique enhances object contours more effectively than conventional brightfield microscopy.

eZoom for Double Precision Imaging

The core of the Axio Zoom.V16 is the eZoom, which replaces the traditional mechanical zoom curve with an electronic one. Stepper motors precisely align the lenses, taking into account individual tolerances. This technology provides extremely accurate imaging across the entire magnification range, doubling the precision compared to conventional mechanical zoom bodies. Additionally, the zoom curves can be individually programmed for specific needs.
