Industrial Cameras for Laboratory Technology, Automation, and Equipment Inspection

Boost throughput, accuracy, and confidence in every analysis

Capture PCR assays, fluorescence signals, microscopy images, slide scans, and chromatography results with industrial cameras. Ensure accurate, reproducible, and high-throughput lab workflows.

Challenges & Trends

Maximizing Throughput

Rising test volumes put labs under pressure. Ensuring fast, consistent image capture and repeatable results across PCR, cell counting, and slide scanning is crucial.

Achieving Clear, Consistent Imaging Every Time

Fluorescence and microscopy require high sensitivity and color accuracy. Even minor variations can affect data integrity and analysis confidence.

Simplifying Integration And Scaling With Confidence

As labs become more connected and AI-driven, aligning imaging, software, and data requires seamless coordination while managing speed, validation, and flexibility.

Applications

PCR And Point-of-Care (PoC) Testing

Capture and interpret PCR assays fast and reliable. Decentralized PoC workflows with repeatable image reads, reduced operator variability, and fast time-to-result.

Fluorescence Imaging

Detect faint fluorescent signals with high sensitivity and consistent color fidelity, enabling accurate cell counts and reliable sequence readouts for trustworthy AI analysis.

Microscopy

Achieve crisp, diagnostic-quality images using phase/contrast and other advanced modalities, preserving morphological detail and ensuring measurements remain consistent across runs.

Slide Scanning And Digital Pathology

Scan entire slides at scale without sacrificing resolution, turning manual microscopy into automated, searchable datasets that speed review and improve reproducibility.
