Description

Zaber's HL04 Laser Autofocus Sensor adds a reliable and fast autofocus system to Zaber Nucleus™ microscopes and MKR microscope cores. The low power 785 nm infrared laser avoids photobleaching and is safe for live cell imaging. Single point and continuous scanning modes support high throughput imaging with area scan and line scan TDI cameras. The HL04 sensor integrates directly with the focus drive of an Nucleus™ MKR microscope core to achieve low latency control for rapid and accurate focus.

 

Achieve excellent long-term stability support during long duration studies with active compensation for thermal drift. High repeatability ensures consistent results in multi-dimensional imaging protocols.

 

Configuration and control are easy using Zaber Launcher’s free microscope app, while the Zaber Motion Library API supports more advanced automation.

 

When mounted to a Zaber Nucleus™ microscope, the MJB25C-F1 junction block provides the required input into the optical path of the system and includes a pre-mounted 785nm notch filter.

 

The HL04 autofocus sensor is not intended for use on its own or with third party systems. To function, it must be used as part of a Nucleus microscope system.

 

- Maximize throughput with sub-450 ms focus time.
- Focus hold mode for long duration imaging and XY scanning.
- Unrestricted objective selection with full compatibility for Nikon, Zeiss, Olympus and Edmund Optics objectives
- Simple and intuitive control through the free Zaber Launcher software, and Zaber Motion Library API .
- Low-energy IR laser is safe for live cells

    Zaber was founded in 1997, when precision linear actuators all used DC motors with gearboxes and encoders requiring bulky controllers.
    Zaber resolved this by integrating the motor, controller, driver, and mechanics into a single device with a small form factor.
