Mastering Precision with the M2 Z45 Stereo Zoom Pod

Our flagship product, the M2 Z45 Stereo Zoom Pod, redefines precision and versatility in the world of stereo microscopes. Whether you're conducting IC inspection, package analysis, or metallurgical studies, the M2 Z45 stands out as the ultimate tool for professionals seeking top-tier optical performance.

Understanding Stereo Zoom Microscopy

Stereo zoom microscopes, like the M2 Z45, offer a unique alternative to traditional compound microscopes. Stereo microscopes provide a three-dimensional image by combining two separate compound-like systems—one for each eye. This design, pioneered by Dr. Greenough in 1897, enhances depth perception and offers an extended working distance of up to 200mm, making it ideal for detailed inspections across various industries.

The M2 Z45 Stereo Zoom Pod builds on this legacy with advanced Greenough and Common Main Objective (CMO) design philosophies. This dual approach ensures a wide field of view, superior magnification and seamless integration into industrial workflows.

Why Choose the M2 Z45 Stereo Zoom Pod?

Unmatched Optical Design

The M2 Z45 Stereo Zoom features a sophisticated Greenough design, composed of matched objective pairs for unparalleled image clarity.

Versatile Illumination Modes

At M2 Associates, we understand that every sample demands a tailored approach. The M2 Z45 Stereo Zoom supports multiple illumination modes, as outlined in our Stereo Microscope Illumination Application Chart:

  • IC Inspection: Coaxial or fiber optic ring

  • Package Inspection: Fiber optic ring or fluorescent ring

  • P.C. Boards Through Hole: Volpi special stage with fiber optic ring or fluorescent ring

  • Ceramics: Transmitted with side illumination or ring illumination

  • Hybrids: Coaxial with transmitted brightfield or ring illumination

  • Measurement: Coaxial or fixed fiber optics

  • Silkscreen: Brightfield or fiber optic ring

  • Polished Metallurgical Samples: Coaxial with attachable polarizer or dual side lights

This versatility ensures the M2 Z45 adapts to your specific needs, from fluorescence to oblique imaging.

Innovative Features

The M2 Z45 incorporates the latest stereo microscope innovations, including reflected light fluorescence and an oblique image rotator. These features, previously restricted to compound microscopes, are now accessible with the M2 Z45, making it a game-changer for inspecting packaged integrated circuits and wire bond attachments at angles up to 45 degrees.

Applications of the M2 Z45 Stereo Zoom Pod

The M2 Z45 is designed for a range of applications, including:

  • Semiconductor Inspection: Perfect for P.C. boards and mask analysis.

  • Material Science: Ideal for thin sections and metallurgical samples.

  • Quality Control: Ensures precision in hybrid and ceramic inspections.

With its ability to handle diverse illumination modes and optical designs, the M2 Z45 is the go-to choice for professionals aiming to elevate their workflow.
