XT60-SL3 10/20/30/40X Stereo Zoom Microscope

The XT60-SL3 is a stereo zoom microscope with a 45° inclined binocular head, standard magnification of 20X/40X, and a 100mm working distance.

Product Overview

The XT60-SL3 is a stereo zoom microscope with a 45° inclined binocular head, standard magnification of 20X/40X, and a 100mm working distance. It uses a Greenough optical system with a 1X/4X, 2X/4X, 1X/3X, or 1X/2X objective combination, allowing selection of zoom ranges from 5X to 160X. The vertical hand wheel zoom provides high repetition accuracy, and the high eye point wide field eyepieces support prolonged use without fatigue.

  • Optical systemGreenough
  • HeadBinocular, 45° inclined, 360° rotation, bilateral diopter adjustment
  • Interpupillary adjustment54~76mm
  • Zoom ratio1:4 (based on 1X/4X objective)
  • Magnification range5X~160X
  • Standard magnification20X/40X

Key Benefits

  • 100mm working distance allows space for tools like soldering irons, tweezers or probes under the optics
  • 45° inclined binocular head with 360° rotation and bilateral diopter adjustment improves operator comfort during long sessions
  • Vertical hand wheel zoom ensures consistent and repeatable zoom positioning across multiple users or sessions
  • Selectable objective combinations (1X/4X, 2X/4X, 1X/3X, 1X/2X) let you match the zoom range to the task at hand
  • High eye point wide field eyepieces (WF10X/20mm, WF15X/15mm, WF20X/10mm) reduce eye strain and improve visibility for glasses wearers

Application Scenarios

  • SMD rework on a PCB with a soldering iron under the optics and a clear view of the joint on a monitor
  • Inspection of small mechanical parts, connectors, or moulded components with a 100mm clearance for tools
  • Teaching or training in electronics assembly where multiple operators share the same instrument
  • Jewellery or watchmaking assembly where hands work under the optics while viewing the detail
  • Quality inspection of small parts where a consistent zoom position is needed across multiple samples

Who It Is For

  • Electronics manufacturers doing SMD and BGA rework and inspection
  • Precision assembly workshops in watchmaking, jewellery and micro-mechanics
  • Teaching laboratories in electronics, engineering and materials science
  • Quality control teams that need repeatable magnification settings for inspection records
  • Maintenance and repair teams working on small mechanical or electronic assemblies

Problems It Solves

  • A flat or non-adjustable head forces operators to strain their necks or eyes during long inspection sessions
  • Lack of a vertical zoom wheel leads to inconsistent zoom positions between users or sessions
  • Short working distance prevents the use of tools like soldering irons or probes under the optics
  • Fixed magnification combinations require swapping objectives to change the zoom range
  • Standard eyepieces with low eye point make it difficult for users wearing glasses to see the full field

Technical Features

  • Greenough optical system provides true stereo depth perception across the zoom range
  • Vertical hand wheel zoom with high repetition accuracy ensures consistent zoom settings
  • 45° inclined binocular head with 360° rotation and bilateral diopter adjustment for ergonomic use
  • Interpupillary adjustment range of 54-76mm supports a wide range of user eye spacing
  • High eye point wide field eyepieces reduce eye strain and allow full field visibility with glasses
  • Optical elements coated with a special coating for bright, clear, and flat field images
  • Focusing hand wheel with elastic adjustment and 50mm lifting range for fine control
  • Selectable objective combinations (1X/4X, 2X/4X, 1X/3X, 1X/2X) for flexible magnification range
  • Standard magnification of 20X/40X, extendable to 5X-160X with optional eyepieces and objectives

Customization Options

  • Choose between standard 2X/4X objective or other optional combinations (1X/4X, 2X/4X, 1X/3X, 1X/2X)
  • Select from WF10X/20mm, WF15X/15mm, or WF20X/10mm eyepieces to extend magnification range
  • Use the binocular head with 45° tilt and 360° rotation for ergonomic positioning
  • Upgrade to a trinocular head if camera integration is needed (not specified in source, but implied by configuration flexibility)
  • Combine with optional ring lights or cold light sources for consistent illumination

Comparison With Other Options

XT60-SL3 without optional objectivesThe standard 2X/4X objective gives 20X/40X magnification; adding 1X/4X or 1X/3X extends the low end to 5X for broader field viewing.
Fixed magnification stereo microscopeThe XT60-SL3 allows continuous zoom with selectable objectives, so you don't need to swap components to change magnification.
Flat head stereo microscopeThe 45° inclined binocular head reduces neck strain and improves comfort during extended use, especially in training or inspection settings.

Use Guide

  • Adjust the interpupillary distance between 54mm and 76mm before focusing to ensure a single merged image
  • Set the diopter on one eye first, then focus with the other eye to avoid misalignment
  • Use the vertical hand wheel for smooth, repeatable zooming; start at the lowest magnification and zoom up
  • Keep the 100mm working distance in mind when positioning tools like soldering irons or probes
  • For extended use, select high eye point eyepieces to reduce eye strain, especially if wearing glasses
