STL10 Stereo Microscope Boom Stand

The STL10 is a boom stand for stereo microscopes, designed to expand the operational range of the instrument.

Product Overview

The STL10 is a boom stand for stereo microscopes, designed to expand the operational range of the instrument. It features a 323mm vertical post with a φ25mm diameter, a 275mm horizontal movement range, and a φ180mm base. The stand supports a focusing mount and allows the microscope head to be positioned at any angle or height, enabling observation from multiple directions without moving the workpiece.

  • Vertical post height323mm
  • Vertical post diameterφ25mm
  • Horizontal movement range275mm
  • Base diameterφ180mm
  • Base thickness40mm
  • Focusing mountA1

Key Benefits

  • 323mm vertical post allows the microscope head to be raised to a comfortable working height
  • 275mm horizontal movement lets the head reach across a large work area without repositioning the object
  • φ180mm base provides stable support for the stand under continuous use
  • Focusing mount A1 is included, so the stand is ready for immediate use with a microscope head
  • Adjustable positioning enables observation from multiple angles, useful for complex or large components

Application Scenarios

  • Positioning a stereo microscope over a large PCB or mechanical assembly without moving the workpiece
  • Inspecting a large component such as a housing or mold from multiple angles during quality control
  • Setting up a microscope in a shared bench environment where multiple operators need access
  • Using the stand in a teaching lab where the microscope must be repositioned for different students
  • Mounting a microscope on a bench with limited space, where a fixed stand would restrict access

Who It Is For

  • Electronics manufacturers performing inspection on large PCBs or assemblies
  • Teaching laboratories requiring flexible positioning for student demonstrations
  • Quality control teams inspecting large or irregularly shaped parts
  • Precision assembly workshops with space constraints or multiple operators
  • Research labs needing to reposition the microscope frequently during experiments

Problems It Solves

  • A fixed stand limits the reach of the microscope head, forcing the operator to move the workpiece
  • Lack of horizontal movement means the operator must reposition the entire microscope to access different areas
  • Small base stands tip easily under heavy heads or when the head is extended far out
  • No integrated focusing mount requires separate purchase and setup, increasing assembly time
  • Inflexible positioning makes it difficult to accommodate multiple users or complex work geometries

Technical Features

  • Vertical post height: 323mm, diameter φ25mm
  • Horizontal movement range: 275mm
  • Base diameter: φ180mm
  • Base thickness: 40mm
  • Focusing mount A1 included with the stand
  • Adjustable boom arm allows positioning in any direction
  • Designed for use with stereo microscope heads and focusing mounts
  • Stable base prevents tipping during operation
  • No integrated lighting or camera support; intended as a mechanical support only

Comparison With Other Options

Fixed column standThe STL10 provides 275mm horizontal movement and 323mm vertical reach, allowing full access to a large work area without moving the object, unlike a fixed stand
Tabletop standThe STL10 has a larger base and greater reach, making it suitable for heavy heads and extended use; tabletop stands are limited in height and movement
Wall-mounted boom standThe STL10 is freestanding and does not require wall mounting, so it can be moved or repositioned as needed

Use Guide

  • Install the focusing mount A1 onto the boom arm before attaching the microscope head
  • Ensure the base is placed on a level, stable surface before use
  • Adjust the boom arm to the desired position and lock the clamping mechanism
  • Do not exceed 3kg of total weight on the head and mount
  • Clean the powder coating with a dry cloth; avoid abrasive cleaners
