A smarter way to work
The latest generation of Mantis is the result of a continual research and development
programme, bringing together pioneering optical developments with over 50 years experience.
The Mantis advantage
For over half a century, Vision Engineering has been a pioneer
in cutting-edge optical developments, introducing eyepiece-less
microscopes to the world in the 1970s. The latest generation
of Mantis is the result of a continual research and development
programme, bringing together pioneering optical developments
with over 50 years experience.
As comfortable as a bench magnifier, with the power of a stereo
microscope, the Mantis’ unique eyepiece-less design is at the
heart of the Mantis advantage. From this, a stunning 3D macro
world opens up to the user. With enhanced depth perception
and the ability to look around the subject, Mantis’ unparalleled
ergonomics opens up a new dimension of enhanced comfort,
efficiency and productivity.
No other company has dedicated so much time to advancing
microscope ergonomics, since we understand the critical link
between operator ergonomics and increased efficiency and
productivity. Vision Engineering’s patented eyepiece-less stereo
microscopes are naturally ergonomic without the need for
special adjustment, modification or optional extras. Users benefit
dramatically from improved comfort and ease of use; businesses
benefit from increased productivity, improved quality and
reduced costs.
But don’t just take our word for it, you could always
ask one of more than 150,000 Mantis users.

Improving operator ergonomics
is not just about improving comfort
Businesses choose Vision Engineering’s ergonomic stereo microscopes because operators are more
comfortable during inspection, so more efficient, more accurate and more productive.
So the operator benefits and so does the business
.
Give your stereo microscope a health check!
Ergonomic working position
An ergonomic body position makes the Mantis more
comfortable, less fatiguing and, more importantly, much
easier to use. Additionally, optimal operator ergonomics
minimises the risk of repetitive strain-related injuries.
A happy worker is a productive worker.
A natural view of the subject
With conventional microscope eyepieces, operators must position their eyes very close to
the eyepieces, blocking out ambient light. The intense light exiting the eyepieces causes the
pupils to contract. Constant contraction and expansion of the pupils is the main cause of eye
fatigue with microscopes.
With the patented eyepieces of Mantis, users sit back from the viewer, allowing ambient light
into the eyes. Additionally, the light exiting the ‘viewing lens’ is spread over a larger area,
proving a more natural view of the subject.
Freedom of head movement
An additional benefit of Vision Engineering’s patented
eyepiece-less design is that users do not need to align their
eyes with eyepieces. This freedom of movement reduces
associated neck and back strain associated with the fixed
body position of conventional microscope eyepieces.
Ability to wear glasses
With Mantis, operators do not need to remove their glasses (or safety glasses) to use the
microscope.
Easy hand-eye co-ordination
Easy hand-eye co-ordination is possible with the Mantis – critical for
re-work, repair, dissection and other manipulation tasks. Sitting back
from the viewer provides users with much better peripheral vision, so
they can co-ordinate hands in a natural manner.
