The software is designed to overcome the problems traditionally associated with the inadequate depth of field for imaging 3-dimensional specimens, by allowing a composite, perfectly focused image to be produced. This is achieved by combining the focused parts from a series of images focused at different heights on the specimen to form an in-focus composite.

Non-tactile Measurement of 3D-Topography
The LSM 700 with Axio Imager is used for many different materials research applications, such as metal and non-metal surfaces, transparent materials, synthetic and organic polymers. Measure topography, waviness, roughness and layer thickness of your samples. This confocal laser scanning microscope operates quickly and accurately without tactile contact.
LSM 700 from Carl Zeiss simplifies materials research with its fully automated hardware and high scanning speeds. The focus linear sensor measures the exact z-position automatically.

The Axioscop 2 research microscope from Zeiss uses the short path length of its designed epicondenser to give brighter fluorescence and hence greater sensitivity. The high-resolution optics with good clarity enhance the information presented on slides and contribute further to the brightness, whilst the quick and easy switchover between brightfield and fluorescence gives greater convenience and faster screening. Space is provided for a broad range of filter systems for multi- labelling, transmission from UV to near IR and the flexibility to use new fluorochromes as they become available.
