Frequently Asked Questions - ISOPRO LEICA

Which microscope stands are compatible with the ISOPRO stage?

The ISOPRO stage is compatible with Leica incident stands and the TL series (TL BFDF, TL RC, TL RCI).

What is the stage travel range?

The travel range is 150 mm on X and 100 mm on Y (6" × 4").

How to control the stage automatically?

The stage can be controlled via the Leica PSC, Leica Smart Move, or Leica LAS software on a PC. It connects via USB.

What is the accuracy of the ISOPRO stage?

Repeatability is 10 µm and system accuracy is ±2 µm + 1‰ of travel distance.

Does the stage maintain focus over the entire surface?

Yes, thanks to SlideOn technology, the stage maintains a constant focal plane over the entire work surface, avoiding refocusing.

What is the maximum travel speed?

The maximum speed is 30 mm/s on the X and Y axes.

How to clean the ISOPRO stage?

Use a soft, dry cloth to clean the stage. Avoid solvents or liquids that could damage electronic components.

Can I use the stage with existing sample holders?

Yes, the stage accepts all Leica TL series sample holders.

What to do in case of failure or need for spare parts?

Contact Leica Microsystems for repairs and spare parts. The device contains no user-serviceable parts.

What types of applications does the ISOPRO stage support?

It is ideal for industrial inspection (e.g., wafers) and life science research, especially with 96-well plates. The LAS software allows storing and recalling an unlimited number of positions.

USER MANUAL ISOPRO LEICA

Provides comfort, convenience, and precision to industrial and life science stereomicroscopy applications

Ideal Solution for Routine Screening and Inspection

Leica Application Suite (LAS) software allows an unlimited number of stage positions to be stored and retrieved at the touch of a button...

...including capturing and storing images.

Leica Controller PSC automatically adapts stage travel speed to the stereomicroscope's zoom level, which provides precise, smooth stage movement.

If routine inspection and screening makes up most of your stereomicroscopy time, the fully motorized Leica IsoPro™ cross-stage is the ideal solution for you. Ergonomically designed to provide comfort, convenience, and precision while viewing, this motorized cross-stage, combined with Leica Application Suite (LAS) software, makes routine tasks even easier.

The Leica IsoPro™ combines all of the outstanding features for which Leica Microsystems is renowned: the highest mechanical manufacturing quality and complete compatibility with existing stereomicroscope configurations. The Leica IsoPro™ can help save time and money – a safe investment in your facility's future needs.

Highly Precise for Industrial Inspection

A high degree of automation makes the Leica IsoPro™ cross-stage perfect for industrial applications; for example, wafer inspection in the semiconductor industry. Combining the LAS MultiStep software module with the microscope system provides the perfect solution for precise, automated inspection. With an accuracy of 2 m , wafers can be positioned under the microscope and photographed with no manual involvement, resulting in less room for error.

Comfort and Convenience for Routine Research

The Leica IsoPro™ cross-stage features SlideOn™ technology to provide a relaxed, comfortable working environment so users can attain complete concentration for routine research. Working with specimens in 96 well plates, for example, is one application that benefits from this technology. Even at high magnification, the stage ensures a constant focusing plane for the entire work surface with no need for inconvenient, time-consuming refocusing.

As part of Leica's modular stereomicroscope product line, the Leica IsoPro™ cross-stage is compatible with existing Leica stereomicroscope bases, making it a sound investment now and in the future.

The Leica IsoPro™ features an additional motor to compensate for tiny inaccuracies. Combined with Leica LAS software, brilliant images are obtained.
