Mitutoyo MF-U Universal Measuring Microscopes - High-Power 3-Axis Microscope (Motor-Driven Z-Axis)
The Mitutoyo MF-U series provides a clear observation image with excellent color quality, ultra-long working distance for high operability and apochromatic design that eliminates chromatic aberration. A choice of observation methods such as dark-field observation, simple polarized observation and differential interference observation in addition to bright-field observation of magnified images are selectable depending on the intended use.
Motor-Driven Z-Axis
- Freedom from burdensome focus adjustment even on a workpiece with many asperities allows the operator to perform stress-free measurement
- Using Vision Unit (optional) enables the image AF function
- The ultra-high speed AF function has been installed to allow focusing on a surface to be measured at a speed of about one second. Freedom from burdensome focus adjustment even on a workpiece with many asperities allows the operator to perform stress-free measurements, drastically reducing the operator's fatigue.
Excellent Observability and Operability
The objectives available provide a choice of ultralow magnification, for excellent flare suppression, to high magnification that approaches the resolution limit possible with optical wavelengths, allowing the customer to select an optimal magnification depending on the intended use.
All models are equipped with a C-mount port as standard to which a compatible camera is attachable. The port allows a vision measurement system or an observation-specific digital camera to be mounted.
The manual stage provides intuitive positioning and can be easily moved rapidly between measuring positions on a workpiece by using the quick release function on each axis. Just free a Quick Release Wheel and move the stage by pushing and pulling. Lock the wheel to continue measurement with fine feed. Very effective for traversing between widely separated positions.
Precisely because measuring microscopes in this series are widely used in widely different industries, Mitutoyo offers a choice of stage size from 100×100 mm to maximum-in-class 400×200 mm. The customer can choose the optimal size for the application with accuracy performance guaranteed.
MF-U Series Microscopes
- NOTE: Turret, objectives, stand, and illumination unit are optional accessories.
- A choice of observation methods such as dark-field observation, simple polarized observation and differential interference observation in addition to bright-field observation of magnified images are selectable depending on the intended use
- Super-long Working Distances - A long working distance is ensured in the entire lineup of a wide variety of objectives (Ordered Separately) between 1X and 100X. This practically eliminates any risk of collision with a workpiece even when surface asperities are present.
- Illumination unit (reflected/transmitted) selectable from a high-intensity LED or halogen bulb (selection required)
- Variety of standardized stages with travel ranges up to 400×200mm
- Quick-release mechanism useful for moving the stage quickly when measuring workpieces that are large in size or quantity
- Coarse/fine feed handles equipped as standard on both sides allow precise focus and observation measurement regardless of handedness
- Dedicated camera port for seamless integration of Mitutoyo Vision unit or third party c-mount camera
- Vision Unit (Sold Separately) - The vision unit allows anyone to perform simplified measurements of an edge with just one click. Also, using the vision unit eliminates the need for burdensome parallel alignment of a workpiece and data point detection with cross hairs, thus allowing quick inspection of dimensions.
- Observation Tube - Tilting optical tube standard
