Spectroscopy of microscopic areas on large samples
The 2030XL PRO™ microspectrophotometer is designed to acquire spectra, images, and film thickness measurements of microscopic features of large scale samples. "XL" stands for "extra large" and these are the types of samples for which this instrument was built. Built to meet your needs, the 2030XL PRO™ incorporates the latest technological advances in optics, electronics, spectroscopy and software to deliver the superior performance with unparalleled speed and capabilities. The ease-of-use for which CRAIC instruments are known has even been improved, making this instrument the cutting edge of UV-visible-NIR microspectroscopy.

Get a microscope C-mount Adapter™ to add a camera or spectrophotometer to a microscope
C-mount for your microscope with 3 axes of movement: now your camera can be parfocal and parcentral with the eyepiece image.
Introduction
The Universal C-mount Adapter™ from CRAIC Technologies was designed for three things:
1. Fit to many microscope models and brands.
2. Adding any camera or spectrophotometer to a microscope photoport.
3. Allowing the camera image to be both parfocal and parcentral with the image from the microscope's eyepieces.
The Universal C-mount Adapter accomplishes all these tasks. With a proprietary design, it is able to move in the X, Y and Z axes and to allow you easily make your camera image parfocal and parcentral with that of the eyepieces.
With flexible flange design, the Universal C-mount Adapter can be used with many different microscope models and brands. Just tell us which model microscope that you are using.
