Industrial Products Group makes a superb inspection system that operates
much like a microscope but has a small display monitor that is so clear
it is unreal. The entire system is less than $3k. Totally eliminates
operator fatigue from staring down the pod. It comes with framegrabber
software, etc. You might want to check them out at
http://www.ppsindprod.com/catalog/index.cfm?view=packages. They make all
kinds of automatic inspection systems, laser soldering systems, etc.

Subject: [TN] Microscope camera, I deny pay all that money!

Hi, is there possibly a subdivision for skinflints in TechNet?
I want a good microscope camera and a program for PC. There are numerous
of brands, most of them very good, like Olympus, Nikon, Kappa etc. But
the price! 5,000 USD and up. It's robbery. You get a super system SLR
digital camera for 1,000. Much more advanced than a microscope camera.
The microscope camera does not even use a advanced lense, the projection
just leaves the trinocular and hit the chip. There must be a way to buy
good digital stuff and put together with a cheap image processing
program. You may buy a cheap digital camera, design a C-ring adapter and
use the framegrabber in Pinnacle 10, just one example. Won't cost more
than 1,000.  I know in principal what to do, but there use to be people
who are very creative on these things. Anyone who have a good proposal?

The cheapskate

Inge
