SIMSCOP SpinDisk Basic Spinning Confocal Microscope

To guarantee each laboratory greater productivity without compromising the data quality, we have created the SpinDisk Basic, the most accessible spinning disk solution for fast and gentle confocal imaging.

The SpinDisk Basic combines high performance and flexibility. Offering customers the freedom to choose the turntable geometry that best suits their application (depth imaging, fast real-time imaging).

Compatible with any upright or inverted microscope with a camera port.

With the perfect match with pinhole size and high light throughput the SpinDisk Basic can be coupled with LED and LASER light source.

Custom-designed lenses are optimized to perform with a wide range of wavelengths from UV to near NIR to use a large variety of fluorophores.

The wider FOV up to 25mm translates into more information

collected and less tilles required to cover a large specimen.

The SpinDisk Basic enables researchers to routinely perform challenging live-imaging experiments for extended periods of time. The highest spinning disk rotation on the market allows to follow ultra-fast cell.		The multi-beam spinning method offers not only high-speed imaging but significantly reduced photo bleaching and phototoxicity. This gentle illumination combined with advanced optical sectioning makes the SpinDisk Basic the standard tool for 3D live cell imaging.

Furthermore, our XY Microscope Piezo Stages has been designed for use our SIMSCOP Series Microscopes to provide motorized XY positioning of microscopy samples. Access for SIMTRUM's XY Microscope Stages can be click here.

SIMSCOP SpinDisk Advance Spinning Confocal Microscope

SpinDisk Advance is the next generation of spinning disk. It relies on the cutting-edge technology, advanced optical design and engineering solutions developed to meet the very high-end specifications required by modern fluorescence microscopy applications.

See Brighter – Enhanced Sensitivity and Image Quality

The disk optimized geometry together with the carefully designed optical layout gives contrast and image clarity, ensuring brighter images of dim samples.

See Faster – High-sectioning, Hi-speed

The capacity to image a field of view up to 25mm at the maximum disk rotation, makes the SpinDisk Advance the fastest confocal microscope on the market.

See More – Dual-camera, ultra-large field of view

It is also the first confocal unit that allows dual camera imaging of the full field of view on both cameras with homogenous illumination.

Multiple Modalities

The SpinDisk Advance is designed to be a truly enabling technology where performance is combined with the flexibility of a modular, expandable system. To achieve this, the SpinDisk Advance has three modes of use:

Left: Widefield - the motorized IN/OUT disk allows for a fluid widerfield/confocal transition without the need for realignment.

Middle: Spinning Disk Confocal -with SpinDisk Advance every upright or inverted microscope can benefit from confocal's advanced optical sectioning capacity.

Right: Super-resolution - the system is designed to be compatible with the SIM SpinDisk add-on, for a seamless evolution from confocal to super-resolution.

Largest FOV in the market

Due to the extensive field of view (FOV) encompassed by the SpinDisk Advance, the sample area is nearly twice as expansive as that of traditional imaging systems. This broader area translates into the acquisition of a higher quantity of data from each image, thereby reducing the requisite amount of sheet material for covering extensive samples. This significantly accelerates the research process. Additionally, the capacity for dual camera utilization serves to further expedite the pace of research.

Uniform illumination for data quantivication

Homogeneous illumination over the entire field of view is essential for quantitative imaging. The SpinDisk Advance illuminator is based on micro-lens technology which is able to turn a high-power laser from a multi-mode fiber into a uniform square collimated beam with over 90% homogenous illumination over the entire 25mm FOV. This unique feature allows data quality and data throughput to be increased avoiding artifacts and recovering information even from the periphery.

Seamless stitching of large samples

Combined with the 25mm FOV, micro lenses are essential for seamless stitching of images of large samples like tissues, organoids and full organisms. This ability allows you to:

Get reliable data without artifacts, avoiding any post-processing correction
Reduce photobleaching and increase speed by minimizing the overlap of tiles
Increase data throughput and guarantee data quality
