CASE STUDY: inspection lighting
Maximise your Quality & Productivity in the Inspection Industry

THEIR CHALLENGES

In a constantly evolving market, watch suppliers are faced with major challenges to ensure the conformity and manufacturing quality of their parts, and microscope manufacturers must constantly innovate in order to meet customer demands for infallible quality control and high-quality inspection precision.

As well as the quality of the inspection optics used, the quality of the illumination is of paramount importance. The more uniformly the illumination light is distributed, the more effective the optical system will be at reproducing a quality image that can then be studied as part of a flawless quality control process.

our solution

Maximised accuracy THANKS TO
OPTIMUM IMAGE CONTRAST

Our innovative solution guarantees unique image clarity thanks to optimum contrast and illumination distribution. By providing uniform light with no heat emission, our products ensure a clear and precise view of the components being inspected. This advanced technology enables both researchers and operators to detect even the smallest defects with exceptional reliability, providing an effective study or quality control during inspection under the microscope.

Compatible with various microscope objectives for Optimum flexibility

Visibright and Visidark products are designed to adapt easily to a wide range of microscope objectives, offering users optimum flexibility. This compatibility ensures a smooth and efficient user experience, allowing researchers to use our solutions with their existing configurations without compromising on image quality. Whether for studies in cell biology, metallurgy or microelectronics, our products integrate perfectly to meet the most specific needs.

Combine our Products for a Complete Inspection down to the last detail

By combining our VisiBright and VisiDark products, which provide direct illumination, with our Visidark products, which provide grazing illumination, it is possible to carry out even more in-depth inspections. This unique combination makes it possible to explore even the most subtle details on a variety of samples, revealing a complete and detailed picture. By combining these two innovative solutions, users benefit from an exceptional synergy that transcends the limits of traditional microscopic observation, opening up new perspectives for research, analysis and quality control.
