ErgoAdapter

  • Phone:  1-415-431-8711
  • The ErgoAdapter is an ergonomic device that is easily inserted between the microscope binocular head and optics carrier.
  • When work surfaces are set at elbow height to facilitate hand operations, the ErgoAdapter allows users to set the microscope's eyepiece height to achieve a good ergonomic neutral posture.
  • Such flexibility eliminates raised shoulders and bent necks, which cause cumulative stress.
