Automated Upright Microscope System for Life Science Research Leica DM4000 B

Clearly arranged status display

The large, logically arranged display of the Leica DM4000 B shows all microscope settings at a glance – a convenience unmatched in this microscope class.

Automated transmitted light axis

Features a fully automated transmitted light axis for brightfield, darkfield, phase, and polarization contrast. Automatic Koehler light management ensures the best image quality and reproducible results.

The microscope detects the selected objective and the contrast method, and then automatically sets the optimal values for aperture, field diaphragm, and light intensity. The user can adjust these values at any time and the modified values are automatically stored.

The Leica‘s patented Constant Color Intensity Control (CCIC) maintains constant color temperature when changing the light intensity- always the same color of the image and the white balance that is normally required for digital camera use is now a thing of a past.

Automated fluorescence axis

Features a fully automated fluorescence axis with apochromatically-corrected optical path  for high contrast, brilliant images at a touch of a button:

• motorized 5-position filter cube turret, motorized field diaphragm and fast motorized shutter
• patented Fluorescence Intensity Management (Leica FIM)

Leica’s unique Zero Pixel Shift filter cube technology ensures perfect image alignment of multiple fluorescence proteins.

Fluorescence Intensity Manager

Leica Microsystems’ unique patented Fluorescence Intensity Manager (FIM) provides fast, accurate, and reproducible adjustment of the fluorescence illumination to effectively protect the specimen from photo bleaching. FIM remembers the setting for each filter cube - for fast and absolutely reproducible results.

Six function keys

Assign any function to the six function keys, located behind the focus knobs - frequently used functions are always within easy reach, without having to look away from the specimen.
