| Tiny Motor Pushes 200x its Weight |
Now 40 percent faster and 50 percent stronger! SQL Series Squiggle motor pushes 30-g axial loads. Use for focus, zoom, alignment and more. Patented piezo motor is just 1.8 x 1.8 x 6 mm, less than half the size of competing micro motors. |
| Suprasil Standard |
Suprasil Standard by Heraeus is a high-purity synthetic FS material. It combines great optical characteristics and excellent transmission in the deep ultraviolet to near-infrared. Technical features: low bubble and inclusion content (class 0), high-purity, standard homogeneity and stress-induced birefringence in functional direction. |

» Botanical wonders
Take time out to visit the University of Central Florida Arboretum, 80 acres that are home to an astonishing 600 plant species. The arboretum has both native Florida and exotic species on display, and native wildlife abounds throughout the varied habitats. Visitors can take a self-guided tour or call ahead to schedule a group session with one of the school's highly trained botanists.
