Design

The best of ZEISS Optics

The new ZEISS objective class C Epiplan-Apochromat has been especially designed for widefield confocal systems. These high numerical aperture lenses not only produce the best performance in the visible range, but also at 405 nm – the wavelength used for the acquisition of widefield confocal images.

The widefield confocal technology of Smartproof 5 offers greater throughput compared to classical point scanning confocal microscopes. This is achieved by the correlated aperture spinning disc technology integrated in the Smartproof 5 detector module, while maintaining the typical benefits of confocal microscopes for surface characterization. You benefit from excellent height resolving power in combined with superior lateral resolution.

Workflows

Guided Workflows for Precise Navigation

Orientation is always easy with Smartproof 5, thanks to its integrated ZEN graphical user interface that supports seamless macro-to detail workflows. Thanks to the overview image you can easily define the position to be measured. The acquired data is automatically transferred to Confomap software, allowing you to process and analyze the 3D properties of your sample. Your workflow can be saved, ready to perform the same microscopic 3D analysis again and again.

Output

Output You Can Trust

Smartproof 5 components are motorized so the software can monitor the status of each component. As a result workflows for repetitive acquisitions can be set up easily. By using the powerful ConfoMap software you can analyze geometrical parameters of your sample or carry out roughness analyses in 2D (profile) and 3D (area). The latter are based on ISO standards.
