Description
Deployed across manufacturing assembly lines and biological dissection desks, the Kern OZL 467 Binocular Stereo Microscope provides dependable dual-illumination zoom inspection on a reinforced metal base. Powered by a 0.7x to 4.5x Greenough optical zoom engine, it delivers continuous 7x to 45x magnification across high-eyepoint HWF 10x/20 mm eyepieces with bilateral diopter equalization. The 45-degree binocular viewing head rotates 360 degrees, providing a natural head posture during long inspection shifts across a 55 mm to 75 mm interpupillary range.
The heavy-duty 300 x 240 mm cast-metal base houses dual independent 3W LED light sources: a sub-stage transmitted panel for transparent biological specimens, and an angle-adjustable overhead spot for surface topography. Independent electronic potentiometer dials on the base deck allow separate brightness regulation for both lighting circuits. The dual-sided rack-and-pinion coarse focus block glides smoothly across the vertical column, bringing total instrument height to 420 mm across a 4.5 kg frame operating on universal 100-240V AC power.
Key Features of Kern OZL 467 Binocular Stereo Microscope
A compact binocular Greenough stereo zoom microscope featuring dual 3W LED illumination and a reinforced metal stand. Combines 7x to 45x magnification with widefield 20 mm eyepieces, rack-and-pinion focus mechanics, and independent base dimmer controls.
- Continuous 7x to 45x zoom magnification powered by an 0.7x to 4.5x Greenough core
- Dual 3W LED lighting: angle-adjustable incident top spot plus sub-stage transmitted panel
- Independent variable potentiometer rotary controls on base for both illumination circuits
- High-eyepoint HWF 10x/20 mm widefield eyepieces with bilateral diopter adjustments
- Dual-sided rack-and-pinion coarse focus drive with internal gear guides
- Heavy-duty 300 x 240 mm metal stand base equipped with frosted glass and black/white plates
- Greenough stereoscopic layout yields genuine 3D spatial depth for delicate tool handling
- Solid 4.5 kg assembly mass provides steady, vibration-free benchtop support
Greenough 3D Depth & Parfocal Zoom Mechanics
The V-shaped Greenough optical pathway produces pronounced stereoscopic relief, making delicate hand-tool work like tweezer sorting and micro-soldering feel natural and precise. The continuous 0.7x to 4.5x zoom engine provides smooth, predictable focal tracking, keeping specimens centered and sharp throughout the magnification curve. Achromatic multi-coated lenses preserve high-contrast color neutrality across the entire zoom run.
Dual-Source 3W LED Control & Rack-and-Pinion Travel
The top 3W LED spotlight tilts manually to direct raking light into deep holes and across rough machining marks, while the cool sub-stage panel illuminates biological tissues without thermal drift. Dual rotary dials on the base plate allow smooth, flicker-free dimming. The rack-and-pinion focus carriage moves without gear lash, and the 4.5 kg frame stays planted on the benchtop during rapid specimen swaps.
- Angle-adjustable incident spotlight highlights surface flaws and micro-burrs
- Sub-stage transmitted LED panel provides clean brightfield backlighting
- Coaxial rack-and-pinion focus drive ensures smooth, repeatable vertical carriage positioning
