Description
MicroCoreScan 1 Meter 3-Axis Rail Rig Only. MicroCoreScan is a micro core scanner for tree cores, dendrochronology, narrow biological or geoscience cores, and microscopic linear features. It works like a scanning SEM in workflow concept: the sample is moved precisely through the optical path so long specimens can be documented as high-resolution stitched records with optical color and surface detail.
Best Fit
Microscopic linear samples
Designed for tree rings, micro cores, narrow samples, prepared surfaces, and long features that need repeatable optical scanning.
Two sliders, two StackShots
Two precision sliders and two StackShot controllers support variable-precision panning along the sample and focus stacking through the optical depth.
Rig-only path
Use this SKU when your lab already has compatible camera and optical equipment or wants the imaging path quoted separately.
Flexible setup
Can be configured like the main product photo or arranged in a scanner-style layout similar to the CoreBox/MacroBox scanner when sample handling calls for trays, drawers, or long specimens.
Tree-Core Imaging Examples
These MicroCore/tree-core examples show why the system belongs in the microscopic scanning family: long stitched tree-core records, interactive Gigapan review, and microscope-objective detail from the same sample.




Configuration Notes
| Configuration | Rig only |
|---|---|
| Rail length | 1 Meter |
| Automation | Three-axis MicroCoreScan platform with two precision sliders and two StackShot controllers for panning and focus stacking. |
| Optical path | Camera body, 70-200mm tube-lens path, Mitutoyo objectives, diffusers, and camera-specific accessories are intentionally excluded from this rig-only build. |
| Objective review | Objectives are not included in this rig-only SKU. |
| Ordering | Price is shown for planning. MicroCoreScan systems begin with quote review so rail length, objective set, camera body, shipping, and training can be confirmed before invoicing. |
| Shipping | Freight and packing are confirmed during quote review. Planning dimensions use a rail-length package at approximately 46 x 8 x 6 inches plus the configured system package. |
Applications
- Tree-ring and dendrochronology imaging
- High-resolution narrow-core scanning
- Microscopic growth-ring, cellular, mineral, and surface-feature records
- Long stitched image maps for research, teaching, and archives
- SEM-like scanning workflow where optical color and focus-stacked detail are preferred
- Configurable objective path when not every Micro Kit objective is required
