Technology
-
CrEST spinning disk uses a proprietary NA dependent pinhole pattern for maximum confocality and higher S/N ratios
-
Single pattern (1 pinhole size, large FOV) or dual pattern (2 pinhole sizes, but smaller FOV)
-
Motorized widefield to confocal switchover while spinning
-
Easy Gimbal mount for quick alignment and best S/N
-
Continuous spiral pattern available for higher throughput
-
Motorized dichroic and emitter filter wheels
