XSZ6745 0.5X C-mount Stereo Microscope Adapter

The XSZ6745 is a 0.5X C-mount adapter designed for stereo microscopes with a 23mm C-mount thread.

Product Overview

The XSZ6745 is a 0.5X C-mount adapter designed for stereo microscopes with a 23mm C-mount thread. It reduces magnification by half, extends the working distance, and allows the attachment of C-mount cameras, including USB3.0 CCD and CMOS models, to the microscope's observation tube. This adapter enables digital imaging without replacing the microscope body.

  • Magnification factor0.5X
  • InterfaceC-mount
  • Optical functionMagnification reduction
  • MaterialAluminum alloy
  • Surface finishAnodized black

Key Benefits

  • Reduces magnification by 0.5X, extending the working distance for larger components or tools
  • Provides a 23mm C-mount thread for direct attachment of C-mount cameras
  • Enables digital imaging with USB3.0 CCD and CMOS cameras without modifying the microscope
  • Maintains optical alignment and focus across the adapter's interface
  • Supports camera integration for inspection documentation and process monitoring

Application Scenarios

  • Attaching a USB3.0 CCD camera to a stereo microscope for high-resolution inspection of PCBs and SMD components
  • Using a C-mount camera with a 0.5X adapter to inspect large assemblies where a longer working distance is needed
  • Integrating a digital imaging chain into a benchtop stereo microscope for quality control records
  • Connecting a C-mount camera to a microscope without replacing the existing head or stand
  • Supporting automated inspection workflows by adding a camera to a manual stereo microscope

Who It Is For

  • Electronics manufacturers doing PCB and SMD inspection
  • Quality departments requiring image capture for inspection reports
  • Laboratories using stereo microscopes for large sample or tool clearance needs
  • Workshops integrating digital imaging into existing stereo microscope setups
  • Educational institutions upgrading analog microscopes to digital inspection tools

Problems It Solves

  • A microscope without a C-mount interface cannot accept a digital camera without a separate adapter
  • Fixed magnification limits prevent adjusting the working distance for larger components or tools
  • Replacing the entire microscope head to add a camera increases cost and downtime
  • Mismatched threads between camera and microscope tube prevent secure attachment
  • Lack of magnification reduction forces the operator to work at higher magnification with limited working space

Technical Features

  • 0.5X magnification reduction factor
  • 23mm C-mount thread for standard C-mount camera compatibility
  • Designed for stereo microscopes with a 23mm diameter observation tube
  • Maintains optical centering and focus across the adapter interface
  • Supports USB3.0 CCD and CMOS cameras with C-mount interface

Comparison With Other Options

Standard stereo microscope without C-mount adapterThe XSZ6745 adds a C-mount interface, enabling camera attachment without replacing the microscope head.
0.75X C-mount adapterThe 0.5X adapter provides greater magnification reduction and longer working distance than the 0.75X version.
C-mount adapter with 1X magnificationThe 0.5X adapter extends working distance and reduces magnification, while the 1X version maintains original magnification but offers no extension.

Use Guide

  • Ensure the microscope's observation tube has a 23mm diameter before installing the adapter
  • Align the C-mount adapter with the tube and tighten securely to prevent misalignment
  • Attach the C-mount camera to the adapter and confirm the lens is centered
  • Check focus and image alignment after mounting the camera
  • Use only C-mount cameras with compatible flange focal distance to maintain focus
