In research, nothing should stand between you and your data. The FX-70 gives you ample room to manipulate specimens, run experiments, and integrate instrumentation—all while maintaining elite optical performance.
If most microscopes are a tight glove, the FX-70 is an open workbench. When your research demands both space and clarity, this scope delivers.
The Mitutoyo FX-70 microscope is renowned for its exceptional long working distance, providing significantly more clearance between the objective lens and the specimen compared to standard microscopes. To illustrate this advantage, here’s a comparison of working distances at various magnifications:
| Magnification | Typical Microscope Working Distance | Mitutoyo FX-70 Working Distance |
|---|---|---|
| 5× | ~10 mm | 34 mm |
| 10× | ~5 mm | 34 mm |
| 20× | ~2 mm | 20 mm |
| 50× | ~0.5 mm | 20.5 mm |
Note: These values are approximate and can vary depending on specific objective lenses used.
Metaphor for Perspective:
Imagine trying to read a book with your eyes just an inch away from the page—that’s akin to using a standard microscope with a short working distance. In contrast, the Mitutoyo FX-70 allows you to read that same book comfortably from across the table, maintaining perfect clarity. This extended working distance offers ample room for sample manipulation, integration of additional tools, and reduces the risk of contaminating or damaging sensitive specimens.
This substantial increase in working distance makes the Mitutoyo FX-70 particularly valuable in applications requiring precision and flexibility, such as semiconductor inspection, materials research, and quality control processes.
