Axio Lab A1

Routine Polarizing Microscope

The Axio Lab. A1 constitutes an all-purpose polarization microscope for applications in fields such as geology, mineralogy and in the exploration of fossil fuel resources. Systematically designed for use in laboratory routine and education, it convincingly combines practical and comfortable handling with exceptional optical performance.

High performance halogen transmitted light source offers high intensity illumination, in particular for demanding applications like darkfield . Alternatively you could opt for an LED lamp with a service life of 10,000 h as the energy saving equipment version. Axio Lab.A1 for Polarization provides maximum performance with all relevant contrasting methods

Transmitted light:

• Orthoscopy: linear and circular polarization
• Conoscopy
• Brightfield
• Darkfield
• Phase contrast

Integrated analyzer and Bertrand optics
Both analyzer and Bertrand lens are integrated in the instrument and are logically coupled, which makes the conoscopy stand particularly comfortable and easy to work with. Once the Bertrand lens moves into the beam path, this logical interaction causes the analyzer to automatically move into place as well.

*N.B. - A research grade Axio Imager Pol is available also. See brochure at side.
