KPI2 and MPI3 Compatible chassis

#1 Post by WaterGoblin » Tue May 23, 2023 7:42 pm

My PZO DIC parts finally arrived (KIP2 and MPI3)
As expected, they are incompatible with the Amscope microscope I have, so I guess it's time for a microscope upgrade.

The head of the PZO Biolar (the microscope designed to be used with these parts) has a slightly different tube length than most microscopes.
I found a Leitz Wetzler Dialux which has the same head tube length as the PZO Biolar

I also found a BH-2 for a nice price and decent objectives, and even though the tube length has a 7mm difference I could 3d print a small piece to slightly elevate head, idk if it's a good idea though.

Any advice?
