LED Twin-Arm Illuminator HDA-TW3

Flexible dual-arm side lighting for stereo microscope observation and imaging.

HDA-TW3 is a white LED twin-arm illuminator for stereo microscopes. The two flexible arms allow light to be directed from the left and right sides of the sample, helping emphasize surface texture, shadow and depth during inspection, assembly, research, education and photomicrography.

HDA-TW3 — Overview

LED Twin-Arm Illuminator

  • Compact, piggyback design for stereo microscope illumination.
  • Adjustable power with stable white LED illumination.
  • Low-heat output helps reduce heat influence on samples.
  • Twin flexible arms allow customizable lighting angles and realistic field depth with enhanced light and shadow.
  • Long-lasting LED design with approximately 30,000-hour service life.
  • Optional filters can be attached to the LED head tips for diffusion, polarization or color control.

HDA-TW3 — Key Features

Side lighting with enhanced depth

Light from the left and right sides can emphasize shadows and surface relief, making it easier to observe texture, scratches, edges and three-dimensional details.

Flexible gooseneck arms

The flexible arm structure allows each LED head to be positioned independently, so lighting angle and distance can be adjusted to match the sample shape and observation purpose.

Continuous dimming control

Brightness can be adjusted from 0 to 100%, allowing the operator to reduce glare or increase contrast depending on the sample surface and camera exposure.

Low heat, long-life LED

LED illumination helps reduce heat generation compared with conventional lamp systems. The LED life is approximately 30,000 hours, depending on the operating environment.
