These are accessories that can be attached to lenses and cameras to add various optical functions.

１．A filter to protect the lens from dust and smoke, fine scratches and dirt.

２．A filter that selectively reflects, absorbs, or passes a specific wavelength of light to create a specific light effect

３．Special filters, such as polarization, to reduce reflections and glare There are many other types.

As for the installation method, there is a general filter that attaches directly to the tip of the lens.

(A wide variety of camera accessories are offered at affordable prices.）

Protective Filters	Polarizing filter
	Attach the filter to the tip of the lens.

There is also a method of sandwiching a prismatic filter through a holder at the tip of the lens. (It is easy to replace the filter.)

＜Mounting example＞
Filters up to 5 mm thick can be used on top of each other.   It can also be attached to the inside of the camera using the C-mount. It is suitable when you do not use a lens (if you use a C-mount camera directly).

• This is a made-to-order product and can be of the following types:

  The basic made-to-order product is 350×250mm (see photo below) with a top surface of 350250 mm, and other sizes are special orders.

  (Adding a baking sheet to match the customer’s workpiece size will reduce the cost.)）

  The top plate has M6 size screw holes, which are convenient for attaching jigs and other items for products.

Analog

The smallest scale is 0.01 mm (10 μm), which is the value for a standard product without a vernier scale.

However, the allowable instrument difference is ±2 μm.

*The word “accuracy” is not used. In practice, measurements smaller than the minimum scale are difficult to make accurately and rely on scales.

Even if the instrument difference is ±2 μm, it may not be “accurate” in actual use.

Digital

Even with a minimum scale of 0.001 mm (1 μm), the instrument difference is ±2 μm.

* We do not say “accuracy” here, but although it is an instrument difference of 2 μm, it is common to think of this as accuracy in practice.

If you actually get a calibration certificate at our company, you will get the following results.

We offer products that use digital micrometers.

Various types of glass scales are also available.

The photo below shows a glass scale from Shodensha.

Calibration Glass Scale GS-4SQ

When calibrating our microscopes, we find it easier to adjust the grid type than the cross display.
In addition, it is convenient to have a number of grid sizes to match various magnifications.

The above glass scale is perfect for such applications.

  There is a way to use white V-shaped blocks.

  I observed a metal cylinder using a V-shaped block. (White, plastic V-block was used)

＜Observed against a white background＞       Halation occurs in simple reflected light.		＜Observation using V-shaped block＞                         The use of V-shaped blocks                     gave side illumination and made                        the picture much easier to see.

  The white V-shaped blocks were custom-made on the Internet.

  We will be happy to introduce you to some useful goods. Please feel free to contact our technical support.

Normally, if you want to fix a monitor to the pillar, attach a fixing stay for the monitor (optional).

It can then be used as shown in the photo below.

At this time, there is another small item that may come in handy.
It is as follows. (Optional)

Attach this to the stay for the monitor.

This way, the monitor can be angled.

There is a way to use a small digital camera to make a handheld microscope, although it is a product of another company.
Battery-powered lighting has the advantages of (1) being able to take it outside without the need for an electrical outlet and
(2) being able to use a small digital camera that you have on hand.

Our simplified XY table (TK100) has a travel range of 75 mm × 55 mm.

You may want to change the microscope to a side view (observe right next to the patient)
for observation of the inside of a slightly larger canal, or for observation of the solder in a BGA.
Here are some useful things to do in this case.
The product is called a reflective mirror box.

In terms of our lenses, the following two types can be attached. The top is a variable magnification lens from 25x to 135x (SDS-M19 variable magnification lens with aperture), and the bottom is a variable magnification lens from about 30x to 60x.

The reflective mirror box is mounted on the end of the lens.
Mounting hardware is separately required for installation. We sell them at our company, so please feel free to contact us. Click here

However, a connecting ring is required for connection. (Please contact us for details.)

Of course, if this is attached, ring lighting cannot be installed.

In addition, normal ring lighting cannot be installed.
Therefore, it is necessary to use fiber lighting, low-profile lighting, etc.

<Thin type lighting >
＜Fiber Lighting＞ There is also a separate method of illuminating the interior using fiber lighting.

We use the equipment shown in the photo below to carry out the observation work.

Precision stages operating on the Z-axis can be quite expensive.

Therefore, a lab jack like the one in the photo is sometimes used as a simple alternative.

There are also products that can be suggested, so please feel free to contact technical support.

A copy stand is useful for photographing paper documents, books, and other three-dimensional objects that cannot be copied
with a digital camera.

Various sizes and prices are available, but the following are relatively inexpensive and can take pictures up to about A4 size.

The base size is 450X450mm and the post height is 550mm.

We also have a stand and lighting that can be used like a pseudo-copy stand to observe A4 size perfectly.

Camera stand GR-STD1-115

It does not make detailed movements like a precision table, but it is useful for tasks such as identifying observation points.

In addition, compared to precision tables, they are more affordable in terms of price.

An option of a “0.5x auxiliary lens” is available that can extend the working distance by about 2 times.

(Some models may not have auxiliary lenses.) 

0.5x auxiliary lens for standard lens TG-0.5

＜About the change in working distance＞
※ In the case of the TG-0.5 0.5x auxiliary lens for standard lenses

※When using a 0.5x auxiliary lens, the working distance is extended, and as a result, the distance between the illumination and the object is widened, so an LED angle (e.g., LED-A2) is required to properly fix the lighting.

LED Angle (LED-A2)	Mounting example

It is possible to adjust the magnification by attaching it to the object side of the main lens. At the same time, the working distance (W.D.) can be changed.

<Visual difference when 0.5x auxiliary lens is attached to the TG500CS>

TG500CS (without 0.5x auxiliary lens) At the lowest magnification	TG500CS (0.5x auxiliary lens attached) At the lowest magnification

It can be observed that when a 0.5x auxiliary lens is attached, the field of view is enlarged.

※When using a 0.5x auxiliary lens, it is necessary to adjust the illumination position using the LED angle because the working distance is extended and the distance between the illumination and the object increases.

●Inquiries from customers who want to sharpen the image quality

We receive inquiries daily from users of our microscopes, many of whom ask us if it is possible to achieve
the same beautiful image quality as a high-end microscope with a microscope costing several hundred thousand yen.

●What is the difference?

Camera pixels?
Camera performance?
Lens performance?
Lighting method?　etc.
Of course, those things have a lot to do with it, too. ・・・・・?

●Image processing instead of raw images?

Many high-end microscopes costing several million yen are equipped with a dedicated high-speed processing computer
and do not display raw images as they are, but instead perform various image processing before displaying them.

●Even Shodensha’s microscope images can be used for image clarification!?

Our company There are ways to obtain the same beautiful image quality as those high-end microscopes,
even with microscopes costing several hundred thousand yen.

It is a software called “Real-time image processing software REAL Effect”.
With this software
●Live-view image processing instead of still image processing.
●Move the object while the image is being processed.
●Intuitive operation for professional image processing.
●Live-view image processing can be performed using only the software, without the use of a clarification device or unit.

When using a microscope with a handheld type, the following should be noted.

1.Display speed

When shooting hand-held, the screen will inevitably “shake”.
If the display speed is slow, the “shake” will not stop.

2.Power source

Microscopes require two power supplies, one for the camera and one for the lighting.
The Handy’s dedicated unit can be supplied by a single USB port.

3.Brightness adjustment

Since one hand is occupied, it would be easier to use the camera with automatic exposure. As a dedicated handheld device, DinoLight’s products have a wide lineup, are inexpensive, and easy to obtain.

Some of our products can also be used as handhelds, depending on the combination. (Since this is a combination product, it is not listed in the catalog as a set product.)

・1.3 megapixel USB 3.0 camera (fast display speed “Global Shutter USB 3.0 Camera”)
・Low-magnification SG2 lens (small and thin lens for handy use) *Not shown on the website
・16 ring lights (can be connected directly to the lens and powered by a PC USB port)

The following is an image of the size of the product.

Both the camera and lighting can be powered from a PC. (No separate power source is needed)

Due to the small size and narrow diameter of the lens, the zoom ratio is not that wide.

●Problems with automated visual inspection

Recently, many users have adopted automatic visual inspection using images.
　Pixel check type automatic visual inspection,
　Pattern check type automatic visual inspection
　Automatic visual inspection using AI to inspect the above types
There are various methods.
Some of them are not detected well by the automatic visual inspection,
and we sometimes receive inquiries about NG through the automatic visual inspection.
In many cases, the NGs are not clearly visible in the inspection image.
If they are not visible, neither software nor AI can detect them.

●Need for image processing

　In such cases
Camera pixel count
Camera performance
Lens performance and magnification
Lighting method, etc.
We often review and reconstruct the hardware.

However, the reality is that even after reviewing such hardware, it is often not possible to detect them successfully.
The aforementioned basic principle, that you can’t see it and you can’t detect it, is the same for humans, software, and AI.
No, software and AI are still inferior to humans at this point.
In such cases, the need for image processing as pre-processing comes into play.

Instead of passing raw acquired images directly to the inspection software, image processing is performed as pre-processing,
and then the processed images are passed to the inspection software.
Of course, the takt time (inspection time) will increase if image processing is applied as pre-processing.
Although it would be better to be able to detect the defects without preprocessing,
it is impossible to detect the defects if they are not visible in the image.

●What types of image processing are available?

It includes binarization, contrast correction, brightness correction, color correction, color limitation, smoothing, edge enhancement,
contour enhancement, denoising, sharpening (crispness), and in a broad and narrow sense, enlargement and reduction,
measurement and line generation.

●What is image processing?

Still images are often saved and then processed using an image processing unit.

●Is it possible to process images in live view (real time)?

The answer is possible.
If the view function of the microscope’s display software has an image processing item,
some microscopes will process the image during live view and then save a still image.
However, in many cases, this is only available in the high-end price range, and the only way to get a microscope
was to purchase an expensive microscope.

Shodensha has a method to obtain the same beautiful image quality as such high-end machines,
even with microscopes costing several hundred thousand yen.

It is a software called “Real-time image processing software REAL Effect”.
With this software, you can process images not as still images, but as live-view images.
You can move the object while the image is being processed.
You can perform image processing to your professional liking with intuitive operation.
Live-view image processing can be done with just the software, without the use of a sharpening device or unit.

3D arm for convenient oblique observation with a digital microscope.

マイクロスコープ用3Dアームの詳細はこちら

From time to time, we receive questions like this.

Q. I want to use measurement software to measure dimensions while observing at an angle.

＜Observation image＞

Taken from right beside the microscope

Taken from the front		Image

A. Of course, it can be used without any problem, but there are some precautions to be taken.

Vertical and oblique observations at the same magnification

The aspect ratio changes when observed from an angle.
(Below is a glass scale of 0.5mm x 0.5mm)

Therefore, the vertical calibration value cannot be used as it is, even for the same magnification observation.
When measuring with oblique observation, it is necessary to apply calibration under those conditions.

conclusion

In order to measure accurately with oblique observation, it is necessary to calibrate the microscope with it tilted at an oblique angle.
However, if the microscope is tilted in two axes (not only to the left or right, but also to the front or back), calibration should be performed with both axes considered.

Many microscopes are sold with a dimensional measurement function.
However, even if they have a measurement function, some types are difficult to use.

When using the measurement function, a microscope is suitable for dimensional measurement if the following 2 points apply.

(1) It is a zoom lens.
(2) It has a scale, and each scale has a latch function.

In the following sections, each of these items will be presented in detail.

（1）Zoom lens

There are two types of lenses with continuously variable magnification.

・Variable magnification lenses

・Zoom lenses

Variable magnification lenses” are not suitable for measurement because the focal length changes significantly

when the magnification is changed.

Zoom lenses” are suitable for measurement because the focal length remains almost the same

even when the magnification is changed.

<Not suitable for measurement> Variable magnification lens (our SG series)

（at maximum magnification）		（at minimum magnification）

＜Zoom lenses (other than our SG series)

（at maximum magnification）		（at minimum magnification）

（2）Scale and latch function

When taking dimensional measurements, reproducibility of conditions is important.

If the lens has optical magnification (scale) marked on it and a latch function for each scale,

variation from operator to operator is eliminated and repeatability is maintained.

<Not suitable for measurement> No latch function

Low-cost microscope (SG series)		Low Magnification Microscopes (LRS Series) Long-Range Microscopes (LRA Series)

<Suitable for measurement> All other series have a scale and latch function.

(Supplement) When you want to measure with a low-power microscope

Our “low-power microscopes” (LRS series) are not suitable for dimensional measurement as mentioned above.

(because it is not reproducible)

Although the magnification cannot be as low as that of the LRS series, the TG series can be used as a low-power microscope

with reproducibility by adding a 0.5x auxiliary lens.

TG Series	0.5x auxiliary lens
Microscope TG500CS	0.5x auxiliary lens TG-0.5

Although the LRS series cannot achieve as low a magnification as the LRS series, it can provide a field of view of about two coins while still allowing repeatable measurements.

Combined with the standard options we offer, you can use the following applications.

Large lenses (including zoom lenses) can also be handled.

The struts that are closer to the side to be observed are considered to be easier to handle if they are shorter.

1. Attaching the 3D arm to a small stand base

When performing this operation, it is recommended to add weights, as small stands may lack stability due to the small area of the base.

※ In order to install the 3D arm on a small stand, a pole for a normal stand is incorporated. The stand can be customized.

If you need more information, please contact us.

2. Attaching an inclined stand to a standard small stand

The following is an inclined stand from Takai Seiki.

Its surface is of the suction cup type, and it can be easily adsorbed if it is a lightweight object.

Since no adhesive is used, there is no residue left and it can be used again and again.

If you don’t mind the decrease in magnification, you can increase the working distance (W.D.) by using a 0.5x auxiliary lens.

If you are willing to sacrifice magnification, you can use a 0.5x auxiliary lens to increase the W.D.

0.5x auxiliary lens for standard lenses TG-0.5   <Example> By attaching a 0.5x auxiliary lens to the TG500PC2, the magnification of 23x~140x is usually reduced to 11x~70x, resulting in an extension of the focal length of 90mm to 160mm.

However, doing so may dim the lighting because the LED ring illumination worn on the tip of the lens will be farther away from the subject. In order to compensate for this, it is necessary to adjust the lighting, such as replacing it with a brighter light or removing the diffuser.

	High-brightness 80-lamp LED ring lighting GR-80N2
	With detachable diffuser

There is also a way to change the position of the light by adjusting the angle of the LED, but this can interfere with the purpose of lengthening the W.D. Therefore, we recommend the use of twin-arm lighting (SPF-D2) or LED spot lighting (SPF-FL3).

	Even though a 0.5x auxiliary lens is used to increase the working distance, if the illumination is lowered by adjusting the angle of the LED, the W.D. expansion effect will be impaired.
For this reason, it is again recommended to use twin-arm lighting or LED spot lighting.
	Twin-arm LED lighting 　 SPF-D2   Stationary dimmable LED twin-arm lighting.

The imported image may not be printed with the desired color reproduction.

If the resolution of the imported image is sufficient, the performance of the printer may be affected.

＜Use of genuine paper＞

Use the genuine paper of the printer manufacturer or paper that is as similar to the genuine paper as possible. 

＜Use a 6-color type (or more)＞

Color printers cannot represent colors lighter than the ink that is SET.
Light colors such as light cyan, light magenta, and gray can be used to accommodate subtle color changes.
For a dual-price printer, four colors are most common, but for printing images, use six colors (or more).

＜Use a high quality printer for photographs＞

The following is an excerpt from Epson’s website. You can get even higher quality prints if you use a high quality printer for photos as shown below.

Visual inspection from microscope to microscope

3 Important Points in Microscope Selection

① Selecting a model with a high frame rate

② Select a model with good color reproduction

③ Select a model with a wide dynamic range

Recommended models

（１）When to use XY tables

Place the transmitted lighting (RD-95) under a compact stand.

On top of it, a glass XY table (TK-100N) is installed.

This completes a handy transmissive lighting stand.

（２）When using a rotary XY table

The size of the turntable and the size of the transmitted lighting (RD-95) are the same.
If you remove the observation plate of the rotating table and install transmissive lighting (RD-95), it becomes a simple transmission stand.

		Transmissive Lighting Stand Compatible Type TK100-N (Point plate: glass)
		Rotary simple XY table TK180-K

Our options include two options for oblique observation of the object. They are the “Universal Stand” and the “3D Arm”.

■ Universal Stand

<Advantages>
These options use the part that is flush with the object being observed as the fulcrum of rotation. Therefore, it has a structure that makes it difficult to lose sight of the object even when viewed from an angle.

This is especially true when you need to change the viewing angle frequently.

<Disadvantages>
However, these options rotate only on one face at a time, so you can’t strabissee four faces at the same time.

(This is possible by rotating the object using a simple rotary XY table.) ）

Rotary Simplified XY Table TK180-K

■ 3D Arm

<Advantages>

It is possible to strabismus from various positions, including four sides of the observer.

Another advantage is that these options can handle large objects. (This is structurally deep.) 

<Disadvantages>

Since the center of the lens (the hold part) acts as a fulcrum and rotates, it must remain in position to avoid losing sight of the object.

We may observe the sample using the stand shown in the photo.

The surface of this stand is sticky, which stabilizes the object even when tilted. It is very convenient because there is no need to worry about it adhering to the object to be observed.

It is also possible to observe the object at an angle.	Since the surface is sticky, there is no need to worry about the observation falling off.

There is no limit to the length of the VGA cable, but it is usually recommended to be around 30 meters.

However, some commercially available cables are 60 meters long.

In addition, there are various extenders on the market, which can be used to transmit signals over distances of 300 meters or more.

The following is an extender using a LAN cable, which can be extended up to 300 meters.

Surges are abnormal voltages and resulting abnormal currents caused by various factors.

Causes include “lightning surges” caused by lightning and “open/close surges” caused by turning power supplies on and off.

Electric power companies and telecommunication companies have taken various countermeasures against lightning surges.

Table taps for lightning surges are also available.

A “open/close surge” is a surge that occurs when a circuit is opened or closed.

Be careful when large capacity motors, generators, high voltage circuits,

solenoids, etc. are connected to the same power line.

If the power supply or power circuit is frequently damaged or operates abnormally,

it may be necessary to take surge countermeasures.

In some cases, simply separating the power lines may be sufficient.

Various surge suppression products are available.

An M26 microscope objective lens is attached to the end of a Nikon telephoto lens (f=300mm) in combination with a step-down ring.

The image is formed and a clear image can be confirmed.
Distance adjustment dial on the lens side is a fine adjustment level

Project a glass scale with a pitch of 0.2 mm. The horizontal field of view is 0.4mm.
Magnification of about 800 to 1000 times can be obtained.

Incidentally, this method can also be used with a standard lens (f = 50 mm or so).

Since the magnification is reduced, ring illumination can also be used.

The focal length is about 40 mm.
The focal length is shorter than that of a dedicated microscope.

The main advantage of our PC monitor direct camera GR80XGA3 is that you can instantly observe high-resolution images on the monitor without display delays or afterimages. At the same time, it is worth mentioning that it is easy to connect directly to a monitor (no PC is required, and no software is required).

With arbitrary line generation function PC Monitor Direct Camera GR80XGA3

The advantage of a camera is that it does not require a PC and can be directly connected to a monitor, but sometimes there is a need to connect this image to a PC or to both a PC and a monitor via a distributor.

Here are two ways to import the footage from this camera to your computer.

1. Capture board (desktop PC only)

Capture boards that support analog RGB (15Pin D-sub) video formats are usually expensive, but AVerMedia Technologies’ Game Broadcaster HD AVT-C127 is available at a relatively affordable price.

Using this capture board, we tested whether it was possible to import images taken with a camera directly connected to a PC monitor to a computer.

This board is known for its easy ability to record iPhone/iPad images to a desktop computer, and is generally available at computer stores. In fact, I was able to use this board to shoot and save still images.

In addition, you can use the dedicated capture software (RECentral) that comes with this capture board to save videos in MP4 format. If you shoot a 20-second video with a resolution of 1280×1024, the file size is relatively small at about 30MB. In general, if you shoot a video of the same length in AVI format, the file size will be about 10 times larger than that of MP4 format. However, when “AVI” was selected in the dedicated capture software (RECentral), there was a phenomenon that the video could not be recorded for some reason. Of course, it is also available in our Viewer software. To use this capture board, you need a desktop computer with Windows 8 or Windows 7. We have confirmed that it works on desktop PCs with Windows 8.

We can’t guarantee that it will work on all desktop computers, but we think it’s worth a try because it’s affordable and feasible.

2. Analog RGB-USB converter (can be used on desktop PCs and notebook PCs)

Below is a converter from Epiphan. It can be used on both desktop and laptop PCs.

＜Example of using Conceptual diagram＞

Procedures for connecting an SLR lens to a C-mount camera to capture long distance and magnified images.

C-mount to F-mount conversion adapters are easy to find.

Nikon telephoto lens (focal length = 300mm) attached to the DN3V-130 via the appropriate adapter

Minimum possible shooting distance is about 3 meters

The image range when taken from a distance of 3 meters is as follows 60mm x 45mm

1. Features of Analog RGB

Analog RGB is a standard mainly for transferring video signals from personal computers to displays.

This interface uses an analog RGB terminal (also known as a mini D-sub 15-pin terminal, VGA terminal).

The analog RGB microscope is a microscope that is connected to a computer via an analog RGB cable and displays an enlarged image on the screen.

2. Analog RGB recommendations

We refer to cameras with video output that conform to this standard as “PC monitor direct cameras” (this is not a general term in the industry).

In general, it is often called an “analog RGB output camera” or “analog color camera”.

Since it can be directly connected to a video device (PC monitor, projector, etc.) that has an analog RGB terminal, there is no display delay, making it a microscope suitable for inspection applications.

3. Analog RGB is now changing to HDTV!

Camera full HD	High-Performance HD Microscope

Videos recorded with SD card-compatible video recorders sold by our company are saved in AVI format.

After transferring these videos to your PC, you can use another program to edit them, such as adjusting the speed or fast-forwarding.

With Windows Media Player, you can play, fast-forward, rewind, and adjust the playback speed. In addition to these functions, GOM PLAYER (free software) also allows you to play frame-by-frame.

For more information, please contact Technical Support.

There is a handy VCR that can receive video signals.

It can be connected directly to a video microscope for image inspection.

It is almost the same size as a compact digital camera, so it is very convenient to carry.

We will also introduce recommended useful goods. Don’t hesitate to contact technical support.

It may be necessary to supply the video signal to multiple devices simultaneously (for example, simultaneous output to a monitor and a recording device).

One way to split a video signal is to use connectors or cables to split the signal in two, which is a widely used method.

However, there is a risk of degradation of video quality if it is branched directly.

By utilizing a video splitter, it is possible to distribute the video signal without losing quality.

● Video degradation → Split by connector	● plitting with a divider → Basically no loss

＜Wiring example＞
You can use a splitter to split the video signal into two parts, one to the video recording device and the other to the monitor.

Long-term recordings, such as 24-hour recordings with a video microscope, can be easily achieved by using a hard disk recorder.

For example, a 2TB (terabyte) hard drive can record for more than 10 days.

It can be connected to the hard disk with various terminals, including BNC terminals.

You can also convert the video signal to USB and save the video directly to your PC.

In this case, it is necessary to expect about 1 MB of data per second at VGA (640×480) resolution, so it is necessary to prepare an HDD or SSD with a capacity corresponding to the period required for recording.

We also accept introductions regarding hard disks, so please feel free to contact technical support.

Video signals are a widely used format, with a wide variety of peripherals at your disposal, including external hard drives, digital video recorders (DVRs), and USB adapters. This makes it possible to record long hours on a hard disk, and if portability is important, you can use a card video recorder or various memory cards. However, when using other peripheral devices, it is necessary to pay attention to the presence or absence of terminals that output video from the device to the monitor. Also, when using a DVR, it may not be possible to record still images due to limitations specific to video recorders, so please check the specifications of the device in advance.

The products we offer have the following features:

• Still images and videos can be saved
• A video recorder with a split function that supports USB memory and can display two screens, left, right, top and bottom

Both of these models can save and play back still images and videos while looking at the monitor.
