STL7 Stereo Microscope Pole Stand

The STL7 is a pole stand with an articulating arm for stereo microscopes, designed to position the microscope head at any angle or height.

Product Overview

The STL7 is a pole stand with an articulating arm for stereo microscopes, designed to position the microscope head at any angle or height. It supports a 340mm vertical post with 315mm horizontal movement and a 25mm diameter post, allowing the head to be repositioned over a large work area. The stand includes an XLB-A1 focusing mount for precise vertical adjustment of the microscope head.

  • Vertical post height340mm
  • Horizontal movement315mm
  • Post diameterФ25mm
  • Base size380x260x20mm
  • Included focusing mountXLB-A1
  • Mounting interfaceStandard 25mm diameter post

Key Benefits

  • 340mm vertical post allows the microscope head to be raised or lowered for operator comfort and ergonomic access
  • 315mm horizontal movement lets the head reach across a large workbench or between multiple stations
  • 25mm diameter post provides stable support for the XLB-A1 focusing mount and microscope head
  • Articulating arm enables the head to be positioned at any angle, including overhead or side views
  • Compact base (380x260x20mm) fits under most bench setups without taking up excessive floor space

Application Scenarios

  • Positioning a stereo microscope over a PCB rework station with multiple tools and components in use
  • Adjusting the head to view a large or irregularly shaped object from multiple angles
  • Setting up a shared inspection station where multiple operators need to view the same sample
  • Using the stand in a teaching lab where the microscope must be moved between different demonstration setups
  • Mounting a microscope on a bench with limited space for traditional fixed stands

Who It Is For

  • Electronics rework and inspection benches with space constraints
  • Teaching laboratories requiring flexible positioning for demonstrations
  • Quality inspection stations with multiple work zones
  • Research labs handling irregularly shaped or large samples
  • Workshops doing precision assembly or repair where the head must be repositioned frequently

Problems It Solves

  • Fixed stands limit the range of motion and make it hard to access objects at different angles
  • Lack of horizontal reach forces the operator to move the entire microscope or sample
  • Inflexible mounting systems prevent quick repositioning between tasks
  • Poor ergonomics from fixed height or angle lead to operator fatigue during long inspections
  • Small base size on some stands makes them unstable when supporting heavier microscope heads

Technical Features

  • Articulating arm with 340mm vertical post and 315mm horizontal movement
  • 25mm diameter vertical post for secure mounting of the XLB-A1 focusing mount
  • XLB-A1 focusing mount included for vertical adjustment of the microscope head
  • Base size 380mm x 260mm x 20mm, providing stable support on a bench
  • Designed for use with stereo microscope heads and focusing mounts from the same product line

Customization Options

  • Available with or without the XLB-A1 focusing mount, depending on the microscope head configuration
  • Can be paired with any stereo microscope head that fits a 25mm diameter post
  • Supports optional auxiliary arms or brackets for additional tool or light positioning
  • Base can be modified for different mounting options if required for specific bench layouts

Comparison With Other Options

Fixed STL5 standThe STL7 offers 315mm horizontal movement and 340mm vertical reach, allowing full repositioning; the STL5 has fixed height and no horizontal travel
Tabletop tripod standThe STL7 has a larger base and more stable articulating arm, reducing wobble during focusing compared to a lightweight tripod
Wall-mounted arm standThe STL7 allows full horizontal and vertical movement without requiring wall drilling or permanent installation

Use Guide

  • Install the XLB-A1 focusing mount onto the 25mm post before attaching the microscope head
  • Adjust the horizontal and vertical arms to position the head over the work area before locking the joints
  • Ensure the base is on a flat, stable surface to prevent tipping during use
  • Use the focusing mount to fine-tune the height of the microscope head after positioning
  • Avoid overextending the horizontal arm beyond 315mm to maintain stability
Answers

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the maximum horizontal reach of the STL7 stand?

315mm. The arm can move 315mm horizontally from the base of the vertical post.

Does the STL7 come with a focusing mount?

Yes. The XLB-A1 focusing mount is included as standard with the STL7 stand.

Can I use this stand with a microscope head that has a different post diameter?

Only if the head has a 25mm diameter post. The stand is designed for 25mm interface compatibility.

What is the height range of the vertical post?

The vertical post is 340mm tall, allowing the head to be raised or lowered within that range.

Is the base large enough for stability?

Yes. The base measures 380x260x20mm, providing a stable footprint for bench use.

Can I mount additional accessories like lights or cameras on this stand?

Yes. The articulating arm and post can support additional accessories if they are mounted with compatible clamps or brackets.
