The Time Has Come for Imaging Systems That Allow You To Tackle Easily Biologically Relevant 3D Models: THUNDER Imagers.

To answer important scientific questions, they enable you to obtain a clear view of details, even deep within an intact sample, in real time without out-of-focus blur. Sharp imaging of 3D specimens is now as easy as working with your favorite camera-based fluorescence microscope. THUNDER Imagers with Computational Clearing define a new class of instruments for high-speed, high-quality imaging of thick, 3-dimensional specimens.

The THUNDER Technology

THUNDER is an opto-digital technology that uses the new Computational Clearing method to generate high resolution and high contrast images. Computational Clearing removes the typical haze inherent to all widefield images of thick samples. It produces brilliant results for large image stacks, as well as single images taken deep in your sample.

THUNDER, a Leica technology, automatically takes all relevant optical parameters into account in order to achieve haze-free results in real time.

The LUMiFlector® is a powerful measuring instrument for product parameter determination & monitoring. The innovative patented MRS-Technology® is the core of the instrument. It quantifies parameters of manifold products – no sample preparation, no chemicals.

The At-line instrument is designed for process monitoring or quality control on a production site or in a laboratory. With its small footprint it can be easily placed beside the production line or in a QA/QC laboratory. The LUMiFlector® Lab is consumable free: no chemicals, no additional waste, no additional costs.

Application fields include food, feed, pharmaceutical, biotechnology products and medical nutrition and beyond.

The optical interface is easily accessible and easy to clean, with just water and soap. The instrument comes with a self-explaining user-friendly interface only. A short training of the operator is sufficient, no need for complicated or time-consuming training. With just approximately 20 seconds per measurement, the LUMiFlector® saves your valuable time. Easy cleaning, handling, measurement, installation & operation guaranteed.

The LUMiFrac is an innovative adhesion analyser, which employs centrifugal forces to determine temperature-controlled tensile as well as shear strength.

It employs centrifugal forces to stress multiple samples at once. It provides adhesive and tensile strength as well as shear strength as an absolute physical quantity in N/mm² (MPa).

The LUMiFrac accomplishes this by directly applying an incrementally increasing centrifugal force to the specimen being tested. It determines with high resolution the RPM at the moment of fracturing (employing Centrifugal Adhesion Testing Technology).

All data is transmitted to the well-known and popular operating software SEPView, which automatically calculates and displays the critical force/strength of failure in real time. Furthermore, it allows to analyze, compare & calculate statistics and combine results for up to tens of samples. Related data, as figures of fracture pattern, may be taken into account as well.
