Heating and Cooling Stages

Application & Benefits

Cooling and heating systems provided by Micro-optik are extremely valuable tool for many non-ambient temperature experiments.

Example "melting plastic"

The advantages of this technique are greatly improved in combination with modern image and video recording technologies.

Hot and cold stage systems consist of a hot and cold stage, a STC200 Series standalone temperature controller, and WinTemp - a Windows based software.
