Z-Series ZE.1657 Trinocular Stereo Microscope Head — 7–45x Zoom by Euromex

The Z-Series ZE.1657 is a modular trinocular stereo microscope head designed for visual inspection and imaging tasks in laboratories and quality control environments.

• Zoom 0.7–4.5x optical system
• Magnification 7–45x for versatile inspection
• Trinocular 45° head with ±6 dioptre adjustment

Precise, adjustable magnification for varied inspection tasks

The optical zoom 0.7–4.5x and the resulting magnification 7–45x deliver a flexible range suitable for everything from coarse assembly checks to detailed surface inspection. The available field of view of 32–5.1 mm helps to quickly assess larger areas or focus on fine features without swapping objectives. This adaptability reduces setup time and supports faster decision making on the production line, while the optical specification maintains clarity across the entire zoom range.

Ergonomic viewing and reliable documentation capability

A trinocular 45° head with SWF 10x/23 mm eyepieces provides comfortable observation, while the dioptre ±6 dioptre adjustment and pupillary distance 55–75 mm accommodate a variety of operators and reduce eye strain during long inspection sessions. The head is modular, so a phototube can be integrated; when the phototube is active the image remains visible in both eyepieces, enabling simultaneous viewing and imaging for documentation or traceability. This combination supports consistent results and easier training of staff.

Generous working distance and practical integration into workflows

With a working distance of 104 mm, the head offers clearance for manipulators, measuring probes or small tooling beneath the objective, simplifying measurement and rework without compromising optical performance. The modular construction means the head pairs with a selected stand (sold separately) and specific camera adapters; certain accessories such as AE.5025 and AE.5040 require an additional SLR adapter and the camera bayonet must be observed. The clear specification of accessories and interfaces supports reliable integration into existing inspection setups and digital documentation workflows.

FAQ

What magnification range does this stereo head cover? The Z-Series ZE.1657 covers a magnification range of 7–45x, achieved via a zoom 0.7–4.5x optical system suitable for variable inspection needs.

Is the head suitable for imaging and documentation? Yes. The trinocular design allows a phototube to be fitted and the Z-Series ZE.1657 keeps the eyepiece view active when the phototube is used, enabling simultaneous observation and image capture.

What eyepieces are supplied with the head? The head is supplied with SWF 10x/23 mm eyepieces (without eyecups), providing a comfortable wide-field view for detailed inspection.

Does the head include a stand or base? The optical head is modular and requires a separately selected stand; appropriate stands and mounting options should be chosen to match the intended workflow.

Are there any special adapter requirements for SLR cameras? Certain accessories (AE.5025, AE.5040) require an additional SLR photo adapter and the camera bayonet must be observed; other photo options list specific sensor-size requirements (DC.1320, DC.1324, DC.1326).
