Description
McBain XY Microscope Stage Olympus BHMJ Zeiss Epiplan 10x Mitutoyo 152-392
This is a precision custom XY microscope stage assembly sourced from a McBain-designed microelectronics optical inspection aligner. Built around an Olympus BHMJ focusing stage, the assembly integrates a Zeiss Epiplan reflected-light objective and Mitutoyo precision micrometer heads for fine XY positioning. The lot is offered as surplus spare parts from the original aligner system.

Applications
Precision XY microscope stages of this type are used in microelectronics fabrication and inspection environments where accurate, repeatable lateral positioning of a sample under an objective is required. The Olympus BHMJ is a focusing stage platform from Olympus's BH series of reflected-light (episcopic) microscopes, which were widely used in semiconductor and electronics manufacturing from the 1970s through the 1990s for die inspection, wafer mapping, and optical alignment tasks. The Zeiss Epiplan series are long-established reflected-light (incident-light) objectives designed for inspecting opaque surfaces — printed circuit boards, semiconductor wafers, metallographic samples, and similar flat substrates — without requiring a coverslip. Mitutoyo 152-series micrometer heads are a standard component in precision XY stages used on measuring microscopes and inspection systems throughout the electronics and metrology industries. This assembly would be of interest to labs maintaining or rebuilding McBain inspection aligners, to researchers constructing custom precision stages, or as high-quality individual spare components (Mitutoyo micrometer heads and Zeiss Epiplan objectives are broadly compatible with a range of third-party stages and microscope bodies).
This McBain custom XY microscope stage assembly was removed from a McBain-designed microelectronics optical inspection aligner and is being sold as surplus spare parts. The assembly includes an Olympus BHMJ focusing stage, an Olympus WHK 10X/20L crosshair eyepiece, two Mitutoyo 152-392 micrometer heads (0–1", 0.0001" resolution) for the XY stage, a Mitutoyo 319-101 microstage for measuring microscopes, and a Zeiss Epiplan 10/(0.2) 0.15 objective (p/n 46 20 92-9902). The components appear to be in good used condition consistent with precision lab equipment pulled from service. Please view our photo set and contact us if you have any questions.
