HIGH MAGNIFICATION LENSES
When high-magnification lenses are required, R.J. Wilson, Inc. recommends Navitar. Navitar’s PreciseEye, Resolv4K, and Zoom 6000 lens systems are modular, offering a range of working distances, magnification factors, supported camera sensor sizes, and a choice of fixed or zoom lens and coaxial lighting options.
While it’s tempting to use a camera and extension tubes when more magnification is required (and it’s fine for many applications), lens systems designed for high-magnification imaging will provide a higher resolution, more focused image across the field-of-view with improved contrast.
For imaging applications in the 700nm to 1,700nm wavelengths, a SWIR lens coating is available on the Navitar lenses.
For microscope-like performance without the eyestrain, the Resolv4K and the Zoom 6000 series offer multiple zoom magnification range options that can be coupled with a high-resolution color camera and lighting system to configure a manual color inspection and documentation station.
PRECISE EYE FIXED LENS SYSTEM
Navitar’s Precise Eye modular lens system provides superior optical performance over standard C-mount video lenses and extension tubes.
C-mount sensor sizes up to 2/3” are supported.
Available magnification factors from 0.23X to 7.2X.
Working distances range from 36mm to 310mm.
Compatible with high-magnification infinity corrected objectives to achieve even higher magnification, rivaling that of a microscope.
Magnification range with infinity-corrected objectives is 1.78X to 89X.
Options to provide coaxial illumination, 3 mm fine focus, and motorization.
