Frame stability – the basis of
system flexibility.
Current biological research
applications require more than a high-
quality microscope. They demand a
complete system configuration
including image processor,
photometry system and laser source.
To enhance system flexibility, the
frame must be strong enough to
support the heaviest attachments. To
achieve an exceptionally rigid frame
for the AX70, Olympus used
advanced computer simulation
techniques in the design process.
Heat-resistant light source
structure.
The power supply represents a
source of heat for microscopes. To
achieve the best long term thermal
stability, the power supply was
removed from the body of the
microscope. The AX70 was also
given a heat-insulating structure to
reduce the temperature influence of
the lamp housing on the frame.
These measures effectively minimize
heat-induced frame flexure on the
AX70.
Application example
Video Enhanced Contrast
A low-contrast sample unidentifiable in ordinary microscopic observation can
be recorded using a high-sensitivity camera, and contrast-enhancement by
means of image processing. The result is unprecedented image contrast and
sharpness. A Nomarski DIC attachment with a greater numerical aperture for
higher resolution is optionally available for Video Enhanced Contrast VEC
applications.
AX70 – the obvious choice
The AX70 accepts a high-sensitivity camera and high 2D resolution camera
simultaneously using a multi-port head and offers superior stability for
mounting a video camera. VEC objectives and Nomarski DIC prisms are
also provided to deliver brightly illuminated, higher-contrast images.

Vibration-resistant rigidity ensures
the best results for
electrophysiological experiments.
The AX70's tripod-like frame design
offers a wider work surface and
reduces installation space
requirements. In addition, it provides
rock-solid stability.
