BX Series

The BX series (BX40, BX50, and BX60), launched in 1993, used a novel Y-shaped design for the microscope body. The series featured superior operability, excellent rigidity, and first-class optical performance. A wide range of accessories was also available to expand the range of possible observations. Olympus succeeded in providing the optimal viewing environment for all observations.
While developing UIS objective lenses, Olympus worked on designing a Y-shaped microscope body to further evolve the AH2, BH2, and CH2 series and establish a global leadership position. There was heated debate among the developers while developing the concepts, but unstinting efforts and expertise by the development and manufacturing divisions resulted in the debut of this product with the tagline "Yes is the answer." YES is an acronym for Y-shaped ergonomy, excellent optics, system versatility.
This microscope series took the competition by surprise and was very well received by microscope users.
