High-resolution lensWith KEYENCE-original optical technologies, the VHX-500 provides class-highestresolution, enabling clear and accurate observation.Real Zoom LensThe VHX-500 uses the RZ (real zoom)lens, or the high-performance lens thatcan correct chromatic aberration to anideal value. Through the leading-edgeoptical design and advanced illuminationtechnology, the VHX-500 can minimizeaberration distortion. Furthermore, withthe highly-telecentric lens design, theRZ lens can create extremely clear andperfect-depth composition images and3-D images. By making the best use ofthe digital focus functions that are theessential feature of the VHX Series, thehigh-performance RZ lens enables “real”observation as its name expresses.The lens unit is comprised of 24 lenses intotal, including 8 groups of 13 lenses forthe objective section, and 9 groups of 11lenses for the zoom section. Using a silicalens, the VHX-500 can correct chromaticaberration almost ideally.Ultra-small, high-performance zoom lensNEWVH-Z2020200 Class-highest resolution.

23-DobservationDigital FocusEven for a target with uneven surface conditions, the VHX-500can remarkably reduce observation time by setting a focaldistance to infinity.Real-time depth compositionHighest speed in the industryEffective for quick confirmation of the whole image (Approx. 5 times higher speed than conventional microscopes)“Real-time depth composition” enables depth composition so quickly that you may notrealize that you have executed composition. You can view the overall-in-focus image inreal time simply by turning the focus adjusting dial while observing a target. With theKEYENCE-original graphic engine, the VHX-500 can quickly display a composed imageon the large (UXGA) screen. Therefore, you can save a considerable amount of laborand time required for composition.Just turnthe knobObservation at high magnificationThe microscope cannot befocused on the whole image.Observation using the VHX digital microscopeThe whole image is brought into focus simplyby moving the lens downward.When a higher area is brought into focusWhen a lower area is brought into focusCoil (400x)High-quality depth compositionIndustry-firstComposing sharp images with superior depth-of-field while correcting the edge deviationsWith the KEYENCE-original hybrid D.F.D depth composition method, the VHX-500 can display ahigh-definition, overall-in-focus image without being affected by extraneous light. Furthermore,the VHX-500 provides the “position correction” function as a standard feature, which can correctedge displacement of a target image and magnification fluctuations caused by shift of the focusposition. The VHX-500 can create a “high-quality” composed image as its name expresses.Position correctionThe VHX-500 corrects edge displacement caused by shift of the focus position of anon-telecentric optical lens.When an image with different focuspositions is captured with a nontelecentric optical lens, the edge ofthe target image will be displacedwhen the focus position is changed.The VHX-500 can correct such edgedisplacement automatically anddisplay a highly perfect, overall-infocus image.Originally developedgraphic engineComponent on board (90x)Without position correctionWith position correctionWith the special image processing board based onthe KEYENCE-original architecture, the VHX-500enables real-time processing of UXGA images.9

Even ifa completely focused image cannot be captured, the VHX-500 series calculates a heightdifference of the target. Thus, the VHX-500 series enables depth composition and 3-Dimage display by using less sample images than conventional microscopes.This method eliminates the need to load images on all focus positions, resulting inanalysis efficiency improvement.Method forsuperimposingin-focus imagesD.F.D methodFurthermore, the hybrid D.F.D method provides the following features: Enables accurate composition even with a target that has a gentle slope and no remarkable unevenness.
