Our DIAMOND lenses


The high-magnification DIAMOND lens series from Schneider Kreuznach is designed to meet the specific requirements of high-resolution imaging in professional environments. These magnification lenses are optimized for 12k/5µm (DIAMOND XL: 16k / 5µm) line scan sensors. These lenses support resolutions down to 16k/3.5µm pixel size and are compatible with a wide range of line scan and large area sensors, including those up to 82mm diagonal. The DIAMOND series is designed to provide flexibility with magnifications from 2.6x to 5.2x to meet a variety of industrial, medical and scientific imaging requirements. The installation and operational flexibility of the diamond lenses is further enhanced by the V70/V90 mount interface, which allows for easy mounting and rotation of the lens to the best azimuth. This design consideration ensures that users can achieve optimal image quality in applications ranging from manufacturing process control to detailed medical imaging.

From PCB inspection to medical Imaging: The versatile power of DIAMOND lenses
In practice, diamond lenses are used in a wide range of technical disciplines. They are essential for detecting early production defects in display manufacturing, ensuring precision in printed circuit board inspection, and enabling comprehensive automated optical inspection (AOI) in component manufacturing. In addition, their performance is critical in line scan imaging and medical applications where high-resolution and accurate imaging is paramount.

DIAMOND lenses: Transforming Fluorescence Lightsheet Microscopy
The DIAMOND lens series represents a significant advancement in fluorescence light sheet microscopy and offers a solution uniquely tailored to the challenges of modern medical research. The unique feature of these lenses - their large image circle and high magnification - allows the use of cameras with large sensors. This integration provides many benefits, including the ability to capture very high resolution images and the ability to analyze larger specimens in a single image (in the µm range). Traditionally, examining "large" samples required the laborious process of stitching together multiple images to create a complete view. DIAMOND lenses eliminate this need. This breakthrough has been recognized and adopted by leading research organizations, including the Allen Institute, which is using these lenses to push the boundaries of biological research. For an in-depth look at how our lenses are being used in groundbreaking medical research, we invite you to read their aritcle detailing their experience with the DIAMOND lens series.

Beamsplitter Lenses 
DIAMOND Lens 0.22 5.2x V70 Beamsplitter

Lenses with beam splitters use coaxial illumination, i.e. the light falls on the object parallel to the optical axis of the objective. This provides a uniform and shadow-free illumination of the object. The beam splitter splits the incoming light beam into two beams. One beam is used to illuminate the object and the other beam is used for image acquisition.
