Kern OZM 932 Binocular Stereo Double Boom Ring Element

Description

Operating with dual parallel steel slide rails, the Kern OZM 932 Double Boom Microscope delivers 470 mm of vibration-free glide over large circuit panels. Its double-arm boom rides on sealed linear ball bearings, eliminating the cantilever twisting and binding common to single-rod stands when holding heavy optics. Powered by a 1:6.4 Greenough zoom engine (0.7x to 4.5x), it provides continuous 7x to 45x magnification across super-widefield high-eyepoint HSWF 10x/23 mm eyepieces with bilateral diopter equalization.

Anchored by a solid steel counterweight base plate measuring 430 x 480 mm with a scratch-resistant finish, the 24.0 kg assembly sits free-standing on your bench without table clamps or bolt holes. The solid 380 mm vertical steel column provides generous clearance for tall tooling fixtures. Surface illumination is supplied by an objective-mounted 4.5W circular multi-segment LED ring light with an inline rotary rheostat, delivering shadowless illumination over complex geometries across universal 100-240V AC power inputs.

Key Features of Kern OZM 932 Double Boom Microscope

A heavy-duty binocular stereo zoom microscope featuring an ultra-stable double-arm boom stand, a 430 x 480 mm steel baseplate, and a 4.5W LED ring light. Combines 7x to 45x magnification with super-wide 23 mm eyepieces, 470 mm horizontal slide stroke, and dual-rail ball-bearing guidance.

• Continuous 7x to 45x zoom magnification powered by an 0.7x to 4.5x Greenough engine
• Double-arm boom with linear ball bearings provides 470 mm of effortless horizontal stroke
• Solid 430 x 480 mm steel counterweight baseplate delivers 24.0 kg of vibration-free ballast
• Objective-mounted 4.5W circular LED ring light provides uniform, shadow-free illumination
• Super-widefield HSWF 10x/23 mm high-eyepoint eyepieces provide an expansive visual field
• Greenough stereoscopic layout yields genuine 3D spatial depth for delicate tool handling
• Solid 380 mm vertical steel column accommodates deep specimen clearance heights
• Dual-sided rack-and-pinion coarse focus drive with internal vertical gear guides

Double-Arm Ball-Bearing Glide & Linear Board Scanning

Single-boom arms tend to bind or pitch off-axis under heavy manipulation, but the twin hardened steel rails on this stand distribute weight evenly across sealed ball-bearing sleeves. Technicians can glide the optical head across heavy casting housings and wide electronic chassis with fingertip force. The Greenough optical paths produce genuine 3D spatial depth, making delicate hand-soldering and trace repair feel completely natural.

24kg Solid Steel Ballast & Shadowless Ring Light

At 24.0 kg, this heavy free-standing base eliminates the need for through-table bolts or edge clamps that could damage expensive workbenches. The scratch-resistant industrial coating shrugs off shop-floor wear, while the low center of gravity stops forward tipping during aggressive scanning passes. The circular 4.5W LED ring light surrounds the objective lens, eliminating dark corners inside deep component wells and suppressing blinding highlights on shiny solder pads.

• Dual-rail boom design stops optical head twisting and sagging under heavy manipulation
• Heavy-duty cast base keeps the center of gravity low even at maximum 470 mm reach
• Bilateral diopter rings balance visual focus for technicians wearing corrective eyewear
