Illumination TypeIllumination TypeHalogen or LED illumination is standard on most good quality microscopes. Only advanced users will see the difference so the choice is a personal one.

How do the most minute and miniature components of all types of things get made and measured? The answer shouldn't shock you -- a toolmaker's microscope, a specialty measuring microscope, comes to the rescue. With the ability to determine relative positions, measure angles, and comparison measure at sizes of up to 0.01mm, these high-fidelity microscopes are ideal for inspecting and measuring miniature components of mechanical or electronic parts or even check for defects in very small components, especially in the manufacturing industry.You don't really need more than between 10X-100X for a toolmaker's microscope, though advanced models often offer even greater magnifications. What you do need are specialized tools, techniques, and accessories for a scope like this, depending on the functionality required. Filters, diaphragms, and lens coatings are just a few examples used to improve image quality, while other features like built-in camera documentation can make it easy to report or send images or video to external devices for review. Special features like an ergonomic design for extra comfort when working for extended periods also contribute to the best toolmaker's microscope designs.As always, microscope.com has a full range of toolmaker's microscopes and accessories. Shopping here is quick and easy, with free shipping on orders over $150 getting your new scope and equipment to your door in no time at all!View

Unlike a conventional light microscope, a toolmakersmicroscope is typically used as a measuring device. As such, it can be used tomeasure up to 1/100th of a mm. This makes these microscopes suitable forsuch functions as the inspection and measurement of various miniaturemechanical and electronic parts.

Like a conventional light microscope, the toolmakersmicroscope is also dependent on optics. Light from the source is focused(upward) on to the object, which allows the user to see the shadow of theobject (because light cannot pass through the object). However, the shadowresembles the object, which allows for measurements to be made.

To adopt the microscope for avariety of applications, a variety of attachments may be required. Given thatthe image (shadow of object) has to represent the true details of the object(detail, shape and even color with some specimens) it also uses avariety of special accessories and techniques, filters, lens coatings and diaphragms,which are meant to affect the raw image for more accurate information.

Asmulti functional devices, toolmaker tools will often be found in most of themanufacturing companies/factories involved in the manufacturing of machines,electronics and tools. In such places, they help in the measurement of shapes,sizes, angles and positions of small components which fall under the measuringrange of the microscope. This makes the microscope particular suitable for suchtasks as measuring the shapes of such components as milling cutters, threadgauge and guide screw among others.

Here, the microscope is used elative positionsof different points by simply measuring the travel that is necessary forbringing a second point to the position that was formerly occupied by the firstand so forth.

The toolmakers microscope is an importantdevice given that it allows for manufacturers and other technicians to observeand measure the small parts of various tools and electronics among others. Ithas a number of advantages that makes it suitable for such tasks. These include;

The Mitutoyo 176 808A Toolmakers Microscope is one in a series of microscopes that have been specifically designed for the purposes of measuring the dimensions and angles of a variety of machines/tools. As such, it can be effectively used for such purposes of checking shapes of screw threads, inspection of matching templates and gears among others.

From the TM Series of microscopes, the Mitutoyo 176-809A TM-510 Toolmakers microscope is a brilliant microscope that comeswith a monocular head, a 30x total magnification, two-watt tungsten bulbs aswell as a rectangular mechanical stage (4" x 2") which allows forleft to right movement. With a number of other special features in place, thiscompound toolmaker's microscope is designed to ensure high accuracy and maximumcomfort during use.

As is the case with conventional microscopes, itis important to understand the purpose of the microscope being purchased inorder to get the most out of it. This is also the case with a toolmakersmicroscope.

A toolmakers microscope well suited for measuring dimensions and angles of machined metals.It can also be used to check the shape of screws and gears by attaching an optionalreticle. The compact body makes it ideal for use on shop-floors with limited space.

Many toolmakers, manufacturers, and technicians use our measuring microscopes on factory floors, in machining factories, and at manufacturing plants. They use the measuring and toolmakers' microscopes to measure the dimensions and angles of machined parts and tools accurately. Toolmakers' microscopes also are used to inspect small electronic and mechanical parts.

To measure parts, the microscope light is used to focus on the object that is being observed under the toolmakers' microscope. Then, the shadow of the object is what is used to gather the measurements. Higher magnification of measuring microscopes allows users to gain precise measurements. We offer a few digital microscopes for measuring and tool applications.

Industrial engineering is a very complicated task, and there are many different processes that are included in the industrial engineering that make the products accurate and efficient. One of the major aspects of the industrial engineering is the meteorology. With the help of metrology, the engineers can easily obtain the various measurement data about a product that helps them in ensuring the best accuracy and precision of the products dimensions. The instruments such as toolmakers microscopes help the engineers in ensuring that the products they supply to the customers are in compliance with the quality standards set by them, and this is only possible with the help of a highly precise metrology.

The toolmakers microscope is a highly efficient instrument that is used in industries for different applications such as measurement of threading in a screw or pitch of a screw. It can also be used for viewing of different points on a surface of a product.

The illumination in a toolmakers microscope is done from the beneath and the top of the base is provided with an adjustable worktable that can be used for adjusting the position of the object with great accuracy. In addition to that, the instruments are also provided with an inclined eyepiece that helps in easy viewing of the object image with great clarity. The work table can be adjusted with the help of micrometer guided screws that help in easy placement of the object or better and accurate measurement.

So I hope that all makes sense, what I really want to know is about the lens, am I right in thinking its a "condenser" lens, what is the exact purpose of said lens?, is it really necessary? (I'm guessing it is!) I only ask this as with a light source it the microscope seems works as it should even with the projection screen.

Although one might want to restore to original condition using a Tungsten Halogen light bulb I found that a high intensity LED downlighter lamp works well on my Projectina projection microscope. They are more compact, use less power and therefore generate less heat.
