Save time with optimized light settings

Spend more time viewing and examining samples with Visoria M. If you change the microscope’s magnification or contrast method, there is no need to manually adjust the brightness thanks to the light management function. The illumination settings are automatically applied thanks to the microscope’s encoding.

Simplify your documentation

You can quickly capture sample details with a press of a button while keeping your eyes on the image. The button for image acquisition is easily accessible on the Visoria M microscope stand.
When you store an image for documentation, selected system settings are automatically saved along with the meta data of the image.
The scale bar is automatically adjusted and added to the image which increases efficiency and saves you valuable time.

Operate your microscope with ease

Easily find the appropriate aperture for each objective with color coding.
Protect your samples and objectives from accidental damage with the built-in focus stop.
For finer focus at higher magnification, use the three-gear focusing system - coarse, medium, and fine.

Work without eyepieces by going digital

Work in a comfortable and relaxed position by viewing images directly on a tablet.
Visualize and document your work steps quickly and discuss image results easily with your colleagues.
Save space on your workbench without the need for a computer.

Stay comfortable while working

Visoria M adapts to your needs, allowing a proper posture and reducing the risk of neck and back strain during long hours at the microscope.
Work comfortably with aligned shoulders and ergonomic hand and arm positioning thanks to the symmetrical layout and height adjustment of the focus and stage control knobs. You can operate Visoria M with just one hand.
Easily switch between right- and left-handed operation, making it especially beneficial when you share the microscope with other users.

Adapt your microscope with ergo accessories

Ergonomic tubes: Choose the 15° ergonomic tubes or adjustable VarioTubes (0-35° tilt) for a relaxed head position and flexible viewing angles.
Ergonomic modules: Insert ErgoModules below the tube to adjust the eyepiece height for a comfortable sitting posture.
Ergonomic lift: The optional ErgoLift enables easy height adjustments of the microscope.

Reduce strain with fewer repetitive motions

Reduce the risk of discomfort and repetitive strain injury with Visoria M. Minimize repetitive movements by adjusting the height and torque of the stage and focus control.

Visualize sample details with the right contrast

For industrial and material inspection and R&D, see the details of structures and defects, such as scratches or contamination, on your samples.

It uses a variety of contrast methods, including:

brightfield
darkfield
polarization
differential interference (DIC)
oblique illumination
fluorescence
In particular, the oblique illumination helps you improve the visualization of surface topography.

Quick sample overview with the 0.7x Macro objective

Quickly from a sample overview to observing the fine details with the optional 0.7x Macro objective
It enables you to see a sample diameter view of approximately 36 mm at a glance
Visualize the fine details of your sample at higher magnification using a wide range of objectives

Powered by the Enersight software platform

Simplify and streamline your workflow with the Visoria M materials microscope and Enersight software platform. It helps you compare, measure, and share data seamlessly with a single intuitive interface.

Key advantages:

Determine the thickness of coatings or layers using the Layer Thickness Measurement function.
Observe samples with a larger field of view and higher resolution using the XY Stitching with Manual Stage function.
Acquire sharp images of samples with extended depth of field (EDOF).
Capture images with optimal illumination and camera settings by using the Quick Brightness function.
Optimize images by automatic correction of shading due to uneven illumination.
Gain a better understanding of samples by merging multiple images from different contrast methods, such as brightfield and darkfield.
