MYcroscopy: Designed to adapt to an individual user’s daily routines

Leica Microsystems presents microscopes that are the best in their class, the Leica DM Digital Microscope Series. Leica has turned innovative ideas into reality to create a microscope that seamlessly adapts to the physique and workflow of every user. With the Leica DM Series, work at the microscope is not only efficient, but also comfortable.

Leica DM Microscopes are completely adjustable. With just a few hand movements, the microscope easily adapts to individual preferences and work routines. In this way, effortless work combines with high-performance, and the microscope meets the user’s needs down to the smallest detail. The Leica DM Series is one of the most ergonomic microscope lines on the market today – and the first choice for fatigue-free work; fast, reliable results; and excellent cost-effectiveness – the benefits of a microscope tailored to individual user routines.

MYcroscopy: Configured for specific and universal applications

Leica DM Microscopes are designed for applications in medicine, clinical laboratories, pathology, and biology; from routine tasks to research.

The Leica DM1000 provides comfort as well as optical brilliance, and is ideal for the clinical laboratory, in particular histology and cytology applications.

The Leica DM1000 LED provides additional convenience with con- stant-color LED illumination and an optional, portable power supply.

In addition, the Leica DM2000 features a sophisticated focus mechanism with five focus functions – either 2-gear or 3-gear focusing, with torque adjustment and adjustable stage height stop.

The Leica DM2500 also offers powerful 100 W illumination and is well-suited for pathology and biomedical research that require specialized contrast methods such as differential interference contrast (DIC).

The “intelligent automation” of the Leica DM3000 supports greater intuitive efficiency and enhanced user comfort. The microscope is designed for clinical laboratories, all biomedical routine and research applications, and is ideal for pathology applications where the user spends hours at a time at the microscope.

Optionally, all five versions can be equipped with fluorescence contrast. The Leica DM Digital Microscope Series can be uniquely tailored to specific laboratory applications.

Cytology

High-performance HI PLAN 10x CY SL screening objective, light intensity synchronized with HI PLAN 40x.

Pathology

Ultra-hard ceramic stage surface ensures long product life. The 1.25x objective provides a clear overview.

Hematology

Easy, single-handed operation (for x/y/z) when simultaneous counting or written notation is required.

Effortless Microscopy Means Comfort

The Leica DM Digital Microscope Series makes routine work as comfortable and effortless as possible. Only a few hand movements are required to adjust the microscope to the user’s seated height, head posture, arm length, and hand size. This adaptability provides reliable protection from muscular tension, poor posture, and long term, detrimental health effects. Microscopy has never been more comfortable and pleasant.

Operation

A technological first!

No two hands are alike. And so the Leica DM Series enables every hand to rest on the focus knobs in complete comfort. The focus knobs can be precisely adjusted to fit the user’s hand. This prevents hand, arm, and shoulder tension and ensures a comfortable, fatigue-free grip – without additional arm supports.

2. Adjustable Eyetubes

Relaxed head posture eases tension

Proper arrangement of the eyetubes promotes good posture while sitting at the microscope. The Leica DM Series offers a

Customized eyetube positioning prevents neck and back muscle strain, and shoulder and lower neck muscle tension, even over lengthy work sessions.

Comfortable shoulder posture provides comfort

The stage drive and focus knob are arranged at the same height on the microscope, forming a straight line and positioned at an equal distance from the user. Because of this symmetry both hands are comfortably aligned during work, and the shoulders automatically assume a right-angle position to the body’s axis. The result: the user sits at the microscope in a straight, relaxed posture.

4Fast Changeover from Rightto Left-handed Operation

One-of-a-kind!

The user can set up Leica DM Microscopes for either rightor left-handed operation as the default. This feature is especially beneficial when alternating users on one microscope.

Control Knobs

Designed to last a lifetime

The microscope’s stage surface is made of a new, hard ceramic that makes the stage resistant to scratches and chemicals, and is completely durable for years, even under the most rigorous usage. The light beige color of the ceramic provides an ideal surface on which to identify specimens by outline and coloring before placing under the objective.

Comfort is at hand

As an alternative to the standard knobs, Leica’s rubberized ErgoKnobs are available to provide a comfortable, secure grip for the focus drive. For the x-y drive knobs, replaceable sleeves made of soft, yet firm rubber are included with the stage drive. Simply pull the sleeves over the knobs to enhance the feeling of sensitive control.

More work space

The design of the stage is rounded, and the entire microscope is compactly designed, with no protruding parts. The compact design frees additional work space around the microscope.
