Introducing Mantis PIXO 3rd Generation Eyepiece-less Stereo Microscope

Patented ergonomic design delivers an enhanced 3D view with amazing depth perception and the ability to look around the subject. Unrivalled user comfort reduces operator fatigue, leading to an increase in quality and productivity.

Unique large high quality optical stereo image

See the finest detail in a large, high resolution, high contrast optical stereo image. Mantis delivers the superior image quality you need to perform your inspection tasks accurately and quickly.

Using Dynamic View Optics Mantis’s large, clear image enables the operator to have a range of head movement whilst viewing the subject, giving them the opportunity to look ‘around’ the subject rather than just straight down on it. 

Mantis PIXO - Digital imaging for collaboration, traceability and training.

PIXO combines optical and digital technologies, providing perfect synergy between the optical stereo view and a high resolution camera. Capture, review and share detailed images for traceability, collaboration and training. Add text, shapes, arrows or digital overlays. Compare live images with targets, measures or pre-set guides.

Use Mantis PIXO’s high quality camera to share your image to a screen. Improve reporting and communication effectiveness with Mantis PIXO, which enables you to capture, review and share high quality images, including annotations, in real time. Maximise working effectiveness by adding digital overlays to compare live images with targets, measures or pre-set guides.

Ergonomic design for user comfort and productivity

Ergonomically designed Mantis enables relaxed, stress-free viewing and manipulation of your component or sample, improving posture whilst reducing back and neck strain. Additionally, the eyepiece-less design reduces eye activity, and thus eye strain. ‘No touch’ viewing means systems can be operated by multiple colleagues without the risk of cross-contamination.

The eyepiece-less technology of Mantis projects a large, high quality optical stereo image directly into the user’s eyes. This makes the image much more comfortable to view compared with traditional microscopes.

3 Lens Multi View Turret

Rotating the multi-view turret allows three different magnifications of your subject with a simple operation. Choose from 8 different objectives available with Mantis ERGO and PIXO.

5 different ways to illuminate your subject

Mantis ERGO features two banks of white LEDs which can be set for synchronised or independent operation. Controlling each bank independently gives you the option to add shadow detail, enhancing your 3D understanding of the subject. 

Transmitted light from below is available with the Stabila stand for inspection of transulcent, transparent and perforated subjects.

Choose UV/White illumination for applications such as clearcoat validation on printed circuit boards to ensure even coverage. Easily change from one light to another to view the coating itself, and then through the coating

EPI Illumination is available for inspecting component cavities and internal cylinder surfaces (e.g. thread inspection). The episcopic illuminator is optional (see related accessories below).

Contrast enhanced lighting - for challenging subjects such as plastics, glass, biological samples and other transparent or translucent materials, an optional contrast enhancing base is available  (see related accessories below).

Choose your Stand

Achieve the best set-up for your application with a wide range of stands . Our stands provide exceptional stability with options of extended reach, floating stage, sub-stage illumination and more.
