Olympus STM6 - Measuring Microscope

The STM6 microscopes offer excellent versatility and high performance three axis measurements of parts and electrical components, with sub-micron precision. UIS 2 infinity corrected optics ensures the highest image quality making the STM a powerful imaging tool as well. Low magnification option makes this ideal for toolmakers.

Features & Benefits

Rigid body and stage for rock-solid stability over long periods
STM6 series quality derives from two main sources: time-tested manufacturing expertise plus valuable feedback from actual experienced users. Recognizing that precision and rigidity must not only be provided but also maintained for long periods.

Long-life LED illumination, with little impact on measurement precision
An LED illuminator is used for reflected/transmitted coaxial illumination. The low-heat character of LED illumination protects specimens from the effects of heat and contributes to more repeatable measurements

Optical linear scale to guarantee sub-micron resolution
All optical information gained through Olympus’ originally developed optical linear scale is processed and measured electrically. The precision of the scale is obviously critical to measuring accuracy - so to minimized error, this scale is mounted to the best position based on the Abbe formula, which defines the ideal position of scale and measured object on the linear line, toward the measuring direction.

Traceability system for higher quality

Rigorous manufacturing procedures ensure top-class quality control
Olympus puts the highest priority on precision throughout all the stages of production and assembly. As well as maintaining a strictly controlled thermostatic manufacturing environment, skilled Olympus engineers apply the most rigorous standards to component material selection, high-precision machining, delicate finishing processes and final adjustment. All completed products and components parts are fully controlled under a rigorous traceability system.

Auto focus
Assiste focus mode is newly added to STM6 series in addition to the One-shot and Tracking focus modes. All the height and depth measurement, which require the continuous fine and accurate operation, can be done with utilizing each focus mode. Z direction measurement efficiencies are dramatically improved with the auto focus so that the human error is now minimized. This unit can be easily added on because of its intermediate tube type compact design.
Focus Navigation System
Focus navigation system achives high-precision height measurement simply by focusing the vertical divergence of the index pattern.
DP20 Digital Camera for Microscope
Live images at 15 frames/second are displayed in high definition television class rresolution so that focusing on the monitor is performed easily without any breaks in traveling the stage during observation and faithful color is obtained at a high resolving power.
Metronics, Quadra-Check Series
As accessories to the STM6 line of microscopes, Olympus offers the QC-200 series, QC300 series and QC-5000 series for the next step in measurement cap
