SPECIFICATIONS

1.0 Specifications Description:

Digital Microscopy System Quantity: 1

Unit Type: Each

Minimum Requirements:

• The digital microscope system and all related components must be installed in the

USDA-ARS Animal Disease Research Unit (ADRU) to the manufacturer’s specification.

The digital microscope system and all related components, including spare parts, accessories offered for sale and delivered to the ADRU must be new. All equipment and options necessary to meet the technical specifications listed must be included in the quote. The quote must include shipping and installation costs. A standard 1-year manufacturer’s warranty shall be provided and described. The warranty period shall begin from the date of final acceptance of the digital microscope on-site. The microscope should include lifetime on-site/phone/email training and support. A support package must be included in the quote that will cover calibration, technical support, and training for the lifetime of the equipment.

• If the microscope is not purchased directly from the manufacturer, the supplying vendor must be authorized to provide a support package that is fully valid through the manufacturer and includes installation, assembly, training, warranty coverage, annual calibration, and routine maintenance support.

EQUIPMENT REQUIREMENTS must meet or exceed the following:

• High-resolution digital imaging with over 8 million pixels of resolution

• Minimum 27'' high-resolution digital display monitor

• 20x-200x magnification capability without having to switch lens hardware

• Must have an integrated stage camera for sample placement & focusing with a wide-angle view of the stage

• Must incorporate built-in user training resources

• Must include a license-free viewer software for remote analysis

• Must have 1TB hard drive

• Must have dual camera capability to combine a high-resolution observation imaging component with a secondary wide-field imaging component

• Must offer multiple available lighting types and contrast enhancement methods:

brightfield/darkfield/transmitted/polarized/DIC

• Combination Stage/Stand Tool (180° rotation & 250° tilt)

• XY Stage Movement up to 40mm x 40mm

PERFORMANCE REQUIREMENTS must meet or exceed the following:

• Must have built-in 2D/3D measurement capabilities for length, area, angle, radius, volume, and profile

• Must be able to generate a fully rendered three-dimensional surface model by capturing and combining images at multiple focal depths

• Must enable XY Stitching with 1-micron stage positioning

• Dynamic range imaging capability that will allow multiple exposures to be captured and made into a single image

• Must have real-time automatic focus adjustment

• Must allow directional lighting algorithms to simulate shadow and relief on the sample surface

• Must automatically optimize lighting settings allowing optimal combination of lighting type, intensity, and angle

• Must be able to record all system parameters from a prior inspection and replay them exactly for new samples. System parameters need to include 2D/3D measurements, XYZ /stage coordinates, lighting settings, image capture parameters, magnification settings.

• Must automatically detect, count, classify, and size particulate contamination and generate reports that comply with industrial cleanliness standards.
