The user of this Olympus IX81, based in Cambridge, was experiencing issues with XY stage calibration while running Volocity acquisition software. We quickly diagnosed that a build-up of old and baked-on grease on the drive screw was causing the problem and with a thorough clean and overhaul, ensured that proper functionality was restored once more.

Support from Atlantic Imaging during the Covid-19 crisis. Many laboratories are closed as a result of the Covid-19 crisis, meaning that an on-site visit is often not possible. We at Atlantic Imaging are currently doing everything we can to support your future and current research including remote advice and computer support. If you have a software or system problem, please contact us to discuss ways in which we can help maintain your equipment. We are also able to offer advice on health and safety procedures to avoid health risks associated with using shared equipment such as microscope eyepieces and will, as ever, be on hand to ensure that you avoid any teething problems when your lab is up and running again. We would like to wish you the best of health and look forward to visiting you again in person soon.

Q: Breathing new life into old imaging systems

Our mission at Atlantic Imaging has always been to ensure the best possible performance from your microscope set-up, even when the system is old and probably no longer supported by the manufacturer. Alan recently visited the National University of Ireland Galway campus to upgrade an Olympus IX81 system that he originally installed there in 2002. Now featuring a new camera and PC and updated imaging software, this system is now up to date and fully functional at a fraction of the cost of a new system. Contact us today to see how we can improve the performance or extend the lifetime of your imaging system.[fusion_button link="https://atlantic-imaging.co.uk/contact/" text_transform="" title="" target="_self" link_attributes="" alignment="" modal="" hide_on_mobile="small-visibility,medium-visibility,large-visibility" class="" id="" color="default" button_gradient_top_color="" button_gradient_bottom_color="" button_gradient_top_color_hover="" button_gradient_bottom_color_hover="" accent_color="" accent_hover_color="" type="" bevel_color="" border_width="" border_radius="" border_color="" border_hover_color="" size="" stretch="default" icon="" icon_position="left" icon_divider="no" animation_type="" animation_direction="left" animation_speed="0.3" animation_offset=""]CONTACT US[/fusion_button]
