XT60-SL8 10/20/30/40X Stereo Zoom Microscope
The XT60-SL8 is a 45° inclined binocular stereo zoom microscope with a standard 20X/40X magnification and a 100mm working distance.
Product Overview
The XT60-SL8 is a 45° inclined binocular stereo zoom microscope with a standard 20X/40X magnification and a 100mm working distance. It uses a Greenough optical system with a shift zoom lens combination and high eye point wide field eyepieces. The vertical hand wheel zoom provides repeatable focus across the range, and the binocular head allows 360° rotation and bilateral diopter adjustment for operator comfort during prolonged use.

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 diopter adjustment reduces eye and neck strain during long sessions
- Vertical hand wheel zoom ensures consistent focus and repeatable magnification settings
- Shift zoom lens combinations (1X/4X, 2X/4X, 1X/3X, 1X/2X) allow flexible magnification selection from 5X to 160X
- High eye point wide field eyepieces (WF10X/20mm, WF15X/15mm, WF20X/10mm) improve visibility for users wearing glasses
- Standard magnification of 20X/40X can be extended to 10X/30X/40X with optional objectives and eyepieces
Application Scenarios
- SMD rework and BGA inspection where a soldering iron must remain under the optics
- Incoming inspection of small mechanical parts, connectors and moulded components
- Watchmaking, jewellery and precision assembly where hands work under the head
- Teaching labs requiring multiple users to view the same object with minimal head movement
- Quality control documentation using optional camera or screen capture from the same instrument
Who It Is For
- Electronics manufacturers doing SMD and BGA rework and inspection
- Universities and technical schools teaching micro-assembly and electronics
- Jewellery, watchmaking and precision engineering workshops
- Quality departments requiring consistent magnification and documentation
- Laboratories performing inspection of small parts with variable magnification needs
Problems It Solves
- A fixed magnification microscope forces the operator to change objectives to inspect different features
- Short working distance instruments prevent the use of tools like soldering irons under the optics
- Non-adjustable heads cause eye strain during long inspection sessions
- Lack of repeatable zoom control leads to inconsistent focus across magnification steps
- Standard eyepieces do not accommodate users wearing glasses or require frequent refocusing
Technical Features
- Greenough optical system with a shift zoom lens combination for true stereo depth
- 45° inclined binocular head with 360° rotation and bilateral diopter adjustment
- Vertical hand wheel zoom with high repetition accuracy for consistent focus
- Interpupillary adjustment 54~76mm for user-to-user handover
- High eye point wide field eyepieces reduce eye strain and improve visibility
- Optical members coated with a special coating for clear, bright, flat field images
- Focusing hand wheel with adjustable elastic lift range of 50mm
- Standard objective 2X/4X and eyepiece WF10X/20mm provide 20X/40X magnification
- Optional objectives (1X/4X, 2X/4X, 1X/3X, 1X/2X) and eyepieces (WF15X/15mm, WF20X/10mm) extend magnification to 5X~160X

Customization Options
- Binocular head with 45° tilt and 360° rotation for ergonomic viewing
- Optional objectives (1X/4X, 2X/4X, 1X/3X, 1X/2X) to adjust magnification and working distance
- Optional eyepieces (WF15X/15mm, WF20X/10mm) to extend magnification range
- Adjustable focusing hand wheel with 50mm lift range for different sample heights
- Option to select different shift zoom lens combinations for specific inspection tasks
Comparison With Other Options
| XT60-SL8 without optional objectives | The standard 2X/4X objective gives 20X/40X; adding 1X/4X or 1X/3X objectives extends the range to 5X/15X or 10X/30X, allowing lower magnification for larger components |
|---|---|
| Fixed magnification stereo microscope | The XT60-SL8's shift zoom lens combination allows continuous magnification from 5X to 160X without changing objectives, reducing setup time |
| Flat-top binocular microscope | The 45° inclined head reduces neck strain during prolonged use, especially when multiple users share the same instrument |
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 the other eye using the diopter adjustment
- Use the vertical hand wheel to focus at the highest magnification first, then zoom out to maintain focus across the range
- Keep the 100mm working distance in mind when positioning tools or fixtures under the head
- Select the shift zoom lens combination (1X/4X, 2X/4X, etc.) based on the required magnification and working distance
