The LBTEK Top Breadboard undergoes an oxidation blackening treatment, allowing system developers to construct custom wide-field observation setups and epi-illumination pathways on the top of an upright microscope. Each breadboard features a Ø38.1 mm through-hole, with the hole center located on the male dovetail block. This dovetail block enables direct connection of the breadboard to the epi-illumination arm of the microscope main body bracket, or can be used to stack breadboards on top of the epi-illumination module. Additionally, there are 8 M3 threaded holes near the Ø38.1 mm through-hole, designed for 30 mm and 60 mm coaxial systems. The purchase includes 4 M4×12 cylindrical head hex socket screws.

The LBTEK filter cube comes with a dovetail mounting slot, which can be installed on the dovetail block of the front door cover of a single-port epi-illumination box. The filter cube can accommodate one 36.0 mm × 25.0 mm × 1.0 mm dichroic mirror (maximum compatible size is 36.0 mm × 25.2 mm × 1.0 mm). Two SM1 threaded holes can secure one excitation filter (Ø25 mm, maximum thickness 5 mm) and one emission filter (Ø25 mm, maximum thickness 3.5 mm) using retaining rings, allowing it to form a complete fluorescence filter cube set.

BTEK Dovetail Adapters include various male and female dovetail specifications such as DIN. The surface is black anodized to reduce stray light reflection. LBTEK continuously introduces new adapters. Please refer to the technical specifications. In addition to standard dovetail adapters, LBTEK also provides custom adapter services for special-sized dovetail specifications.
