Innovation and research for fluorescence microscopy
NE950
Motorised Research Upright Biological Microscope
Introducing the NE950, Nexcope's flagship motorised upright research microscope - engineered for cutting-edge scientific exploration and clinical research
Combining a high-precision motorised XY stage, motorised sextuple nosepiece, NIS infinite optical system and an integrated front touch-screen controller, the NE950 delivers exceptional imaging performance in a refined, ergonomic package. Whether used for pathological diagnosis, life sciences research, or advanced imaging workflows, the NE950 rises to every challenge.
Paired with Nexcope's NOMIS Plus motorised microscope imaging software, the NE950 delivers seamless integrated control of the microscope, camera, motorised stage and all key components — all from a single, intuitive interface.
Key Features
Built for Research. Designed for Precision.
Front Touch Control Screen
The integrated front touch-screen does not occupy desktop space. Its clean, programmable interface simplifies repeated observation and imaging tasks — displaying objective magnification, XYZ position, illumination brightness and more at a glance.
NIS Infinite Optical System
The Nexcope designed and manufactured objectives and NIS (Nexcope Infinity System) optical design ensures flat, high-contrast images across the full field of view — delivering the optical performance demanded by advanced research and clinical workflows.
Trinocular Ergonomic Eyepiece Tube
The trinocular tube features an adjustable viewing angle and pupillary distance adjustment from 47–78 mm. Combined with one-touch objective switching, this ensures an ergonomic and comfortable viewing experience during extended research sessions.
Motorised XY Stage with Full 3-Axis Control
The high-precision motorised stage enables controlled movement in X, Y and Z directions. A single USB cable connects the computer to the built-in controller, providing fully integrated motorized control. The included joystick makes stage navigation powerful and effortless.
NOMIS Plus Imaging Software
Provides integrated control of the microscope, camera, motorised stage and components. Features include automatic focusing, sequential scanning, fixed-point scanning, curved surface fitting scanning, and full-field focusing scanning — all from one unified platform.
Motorised Sextuple Nosepiece
Accommodates up to six objectives with automated switching, compatible brightfield, phase contrast, DIC, polarising and fluorescence imaging modes
Epi-Fluorescence Illuminator
A variety of manual or motorised epi-fluorescence illuminators can be selected. Several LED light sources are avaliable for exceptional fluorescence imaging. For the maximum in .
