The MECHANIC DIS3 trinocular stereo microscope is a second listing of the DIS3 trinocular microscope in the Mechanic catalogue. It is designed for detailed inspection and precision repair, with a trinocular head that lets you view the work through the eyepieces and attach a camera for recording.
Why Use a Stereo Microscope?
A stereo microscope gives a three-dimensional view, which helps you judge the height and shape of solder joints and components. Magnification makes hairline cracks, bridged pins and tiny debris much easier to spot.
Best Uses
- Board inspection and fault finding
- Fine soldering and rework
- Recording repair results with an attached camera
Tips for Good Results
Set the eyepieces to your eyes and adjust the focus before you start. Use good lighting on the work, and keep the stand stable so the image does not shake while you solder.
Safety
Keep hot tools away from the optics, and do not let flux or solder fumes settle on the lenses. Clean the lenses only with a soft brush or microfibre cloth.
