Schott Lightline Dual 2.0" x .035" Fiber Optic Light Source Assembly A08583

The Schott Lightline Dual 2.0" x .035" (Model A08583) is a precision-engineered fiber optic light source designed as a superior alternative to traditional fiber optic bundles for microscopy and inspection lighting applications. This device ensures optimal illumination uniformity essential for high-resolution imaging in biotechnology workflows such as live-cell imaging and molecular diagnostics.

• Calibrated with a DDL-bulb to deliver a defined number of gray scale levels at a mean of 200 and gamma setting 1.0, achieving consistent brightness and contrast critical for fluorescence analysis and cell imaging.
• The fiber line is positioned within the aluminum body with a high precision tolerance of ±0.004” (0.1 mm) across three planes, ensuring parallel alignment with the mounting surface for reproducible light delivery.
• Robust construction includes a rugged anodized aluminum body and light source ferrule, complemented by PVC-covered metal tubing that safeguards the fiber bundle in laboratory and industrial handling environments.
• Compatible with a range of Lightline holders and support accessories, enabling flexible integration into bioprocessing and synthetic biology instrumentation setups.
• Customizable options include various lengths, bundle exit configurations (dual, quad, etc.), and line widths tailored to specialized illumination requirements in research fields like biomedical engineering and clinical diagnostics.
• Optional cylindrical and apertured lenses (made-to-order) provide beam shaping capabilities to optimize illumination geometry for specific microscopy modalities or inspection platforms.

The precision and uniformity of the Schott Lightline Dual A08583 make it well suited to advanced biotechnology applications, including critical biomanufacturing illumination processes and essential molecular cloning workflows requiring high-contrast, stable light sources. This fiber optic accessory supports researchers and professionals aiming for excellence in optical performance and reproducible imaging results.
