Description
Eliminating motion blur and frame lag during real-time electronic assembly, the Kern OZL 464C832 Digital Stereo Microscope provides uncompressed high-speed video streaming. It pairs a 7x to 45x Greenough optical zoom engine with a pre-mounted 5.0 Megapixel CMOS camera running over high-bandwidth USB 3.0 (up to 5 Gbit/s). That extra data bandwidth lets technicians sweep circuit boards under the lens at full frame rates without video stutter, displaying fluid live feeds on PC monitors while viewing through high-eyepoint WF 10x/20 mm eyepieces.
The optical system features a 0.5x C-mount adapter that balances magnification between oculars and camera sensor. Dual 3W LED illumination is built into the 300 x 240 mm cast-metal base: an angle-adjustable top spotlight for surface profiling and a sub-stage transmitted panel for translucent parts. Independent rotary rheostats on the base deck allow separate brightness control. Measuring 510 mm tall with the camera installed, the 5.5 kg frame sits on dual-sided rack-and-pinion focus tracks, operating on universal 100-240V AC power while the camera draws bus power over USB 3.0.
Key Features of Kern OZL 464C832 Digital Stereo Microscope
A high-speed digital trinocular stereo zoom microscope designed for live component tracking and metallurgical defect logging. Combines 7x to 45x magnification with a 5MP USB 3.0 camera, 0.5x C-mount adapter, dual 3W LED lighting, and high-eyepoint 20 mm eyepieces.
- Continuous 7x to 45x zoom magnification powered by a 0.7x to 4.5x Greenough core
- Pre-mounted 5.0 Megapixel CMOS camera module with high-speed USB 3.0 connectivity
- High-bandwidth data transfer delivers smooth, uncompressed high-frame-rate live video
- Integrated 0.5x optical C-mount reduction lens formats sensor field of view cleanly
- Dual 3W LED lighting: angle-adjustable incident top spot plus sub-stage transmitted panel
- Independent variable potentiometer dimmer dials on the base for both lighting paths
- Widefield high-eyepoint WF 10x/20 mm eyepieces with bilateral diopter equalization
- Solid 5.5 kg cast-metal chassis with rack-and-pinion focus drive and 300 x 240 mm base
High-Speed USB 3.0 Data Throughput & Greenough 3D Optics
Standard USB 2.0 cameras often drop frames or show noticeable latency during manual board translation. USB 3.0 solves that problem by transmitting raw, uncompressed 5MP video frames instantly, giving operators a smooth, real-time live feed that matches hand movements under the objective. The twin-path Greenough optical train maintains sharp 3D depth perception and true color fidelity across the entire 1:6.4 zoom range.
Angle-Adjustable Surface Light & Solid Metal Ballast
The overhead 3W LED illuminator tilts on a swivel joint, allowing technicians to throw directional raking light across hairline fractures and solder joints to reveal subtle surface textures. The sub-stage 3W LED array provides even backlighting for checking transparent plastics and biological samples. At 5.5 kg, the heavy cast base stays dead still during aggressive focusing, while the dual-sided rack-and-pinion knobs allow comfortable left- or right-handed operation.
- USB 3.0 interface eliminates live video lag during active micro-soldering rework
- Bilateral diopter adjustment sleeves balance visual focus for corrective lens wearers
- Dual rack-and-pinion focus drive ensures smooth, repeatable vertical carriage positioning
