For Fatigue-Free 3D Inspection of Small Parts and Assemblies

VDM-E/Z™ Video Direct Microscope (VDM) is designed for fatigue-free 3D inspection of small parts and assemblies. What could be more uncomfortable than squinting into a microscope. Doing it all day long for parts inspection! That's why we developed the VDM system for effortless long-term viewing on a 13" color video monitor. The VDM is available with two interchangeable optics options; Patented Extended Depth of Field (EDF) Objective with on-axis light and Zoom Objective with ring light

The system is complete with fiber optic lighting and is available with a number of options to enhance its versatility. When inspecting small parts from any angle, VDM is the effortless clear choice.
