Market Definition

A stereo microscope is an optical microscope device that has fixed or adjustable zooming objective and is designed in such a way that to observe samples at relative low magnifications from 2.5 to 90 times. The instrument shows magnification of about maximum 300 times than that of the normal image. This is also called as dissecting microscope. The stereo microscope consists of two separated optical systems that provide an image to each of eye.
The instrument is also used in the study of surfaces of solid specimens or may also be used to carry out close work such as watch-making, dissection, sorting, small circuit board manufacture or inspection etc.
Stereomicroscopes are divided into two basic families and both the families have positive as well as negative characteristics.
The device or instrument is used by biologists who are performing dissections, technicians who repair circuit boards, palaeontologists cleaning and examining fossils and many others. This instrument can be used from engravers to machinists, archaeologists to zoologists. These are also useful in every well-equipped laboratory, R&D facility uses and other places.
