Mantis...Compact, Elite, Macro?

The Mantis family is a unique range of patented optical systems without eyepieces, for intricate tasks requiring superbquality viewing over long periods of time.Mantis is in use in tens of thousands of sites worldwide andhas become the accepted standard for ergonomics and highperformance magnification.The latest generation of Mantis incorporates the most modernadvances in optical design, moulded plastics and LED illumination.Vision Engineering has designed and manufactured worldleading optical systems since 1958. The company’s patentedoptical viewers, microscopes suppliers and industrial measuring systems aremanufactured in Vision Engineering factories in the UK and theUSA. The stereo eyepieceless Mantis viewers have a wide range ofapplications; it is used throughout manufacturing industries(electronics, precision engineering, plastics, medical devices)and life science laboratories around the world.Advantages of the next generation Mantis are: Entry level, low investment versions Compact, functional units Wide range of magnification options (to x20) Shadow-free LED cold illumination, both surface and substage Long working distances; large depths of field Stable structures for high magnification viewing

Mantis Compact Mantis Elite Mantis Macro

Mantis Compact excels in the lowmagnification range for inspectionor manipulation tasks where bench magnifiers have traditionally beenused. Mantis Compact has a smallfootprint and low investment costgiving a superb price / performanceratio. Mantis Elite offers a wider, higherperformance specificationincluding high magnification, large field of view, long workingdistance and head tilt capability.Mantis Elite has enhanced opticalperformance, making it a perfectalternative to traditional stereo microscopes for a wide range ofinspection, preparation andmanipulation tasks requiringhand-to-eye co-ordination. Mantis Macro offers a straight through in-line view of the subject, similar in operation to a bench professional magnifier, but withincreased optical clarity andmagnification. Mantis Macrooffers a comparatively highmagnification for an in-line viewer making it ideal for tasks whichrequire exceptional hand-eye co-ordination and increased magnification.
