Founded in 1958, Vision Engineering Ltd (www.visioneng.com) is a global leading-edge manufacturer of patented ergonomic stereo microscopes, digital inspection microscopes and non-contact measuring systems. Our unique patented products have saved manufacturing companies many man-hours, reduced materials wastage and ensured quality and conformance to desired specifications. In 1994, Vision Engineering introduced the World’s first ‘eyepiece-less’ stereo microscope, the Mantis, designed to fill the gap between a bench magnifier and a microscope. It was an ergonomic revolution that went on to win numerous design and innovation awards. The Mantis became the new benchmark for high performance stereo magnification. Since then, Vision Engineering has pursued a corporate design and innovation policy, focusing on improving operator performance when using visual inspection or non-contact measurement systems, improving quality and reducing cost and waste in the manufacturing industries.
