Cost Effective UV-Visible-NIR Microspectroscopy
The FLEX PRO™ microspectrophotometer packs CRAIC Technologies’ UV-visible-NIR optics, spectroscopy, digital imaging and software into one flexible instrument at an attractive price. At its heart, the Lightswitch by CRAIC™ optical multiplexer routes light seamlessly between measurement modes, keeping the instrument remarkably easy to use.

With the FLEX PRO™ you can measure transmission, reflectance, polarization and fluorescence microspectra™ of sample areas smaller than a micron across, capture high resolution digital images, and add capabilities as your needs grow — from Raman microspectroscopy to glass refractive index measurement with the rIQ™ package.
Featuring Lightblades™ spectrometer technology and the Scorpii™ Advanced Illumination System, the FLEX PRO™ delivers the measurement quality CRAIC instruments are known for, in a configuration sized for routine research, quality control and teaching laboratories alike.
A cost effective solution for UV-visible-NIR microspectroscopy and microscopic imaging.

Cost effective microspectroscopy
Measure spectra from the ultraviolet through the visible and into the near infrared, with simultaneous, direct imaging of both the sampling aperture and the sample for fast, accurate measurements. SampleSafe™, Scorpii™ and Lightblades™ technologies let you acquire transmission, reflectance and fluorescence spectra of even sub-micron samples rapidly and non-destructively. CRAIC Technologies is also the only recognized source for NIST traceable microspectrometer standards.

FLEX PRO™ Raman microspectroscopy
Add Raman capability to the FLEX PRO™ and identify the molecular composition of microscopic samples non-destructively — pharmaceuticals, polymers, trace evidence and more, measured in place with no sample preparation.

5D Spectral Surface Mapping™
Combine automated hardware with Lambdafire™ software to map the absorbance, transmission, reflectance, fluorescence, emission and Raman spectra of a surface with microscopic spatial resolution.
Superior image quality
High resolution digital imaging of microscopic samples in transmission, reflectance and fluorescence — with the image quality CRAIC optics are known for, from the UV to the NIR.
