Not all loops are the same! In the old days, a magnifying glass was usually just a piece of glass, a firmly fixed circle of metal and a handle screwed into the base. Functional, but not particularly inspiring or exciting. Definitely a utilitarian part of office equipment. However, with the growth of hobbies such as quilting, collecting stamps or collecting coins, the demand for fairly powerful loops has increased, and the need for them to contain different functions in one loop is now essential.
Recent studies among older demographic groups, which naturally use loops more often, have shown that their demands in the field of loops have become more sophisticated and have forced suppliers of magnifiers to almost reinvent the wheel. In this short article I want to introduce you to some of the modern features of magnifying glasses, which were not available even 20 years ago, such successes that were made in this industry.
It is easy to find many websites that will inform and train all interested visitors, who will find detailed information on how the lenses are made, the materials used and the various functions available on each magnifier. What you discover may surprise you if you haven’t recently seen a modern loupe. Gone are the days when one magnifying glass fits all! Today, magnifying glasses with interchangeable lenses and bright LED lamps that allow users to use one lens to read books, for example, one for more detailed hobby-style work or to study jewelry, if necessary, are now commonplace. Customer feedback has led to the emergence of new and more useful features that have now become better archers.
Modern magnifying glasses often have comfortable handles with a soft grip, because end users regularly point out that having a magnifying glass for a long time with hard joints in their hands was difficult and painful. It may also surprise you when learning that the handles are not only made of hard plastic or rubber, but are actually made from a compound known as acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene or, most often, ABS for short.
The most important mechanical properties of ABS are impact resistance, and impact strength and loupes made of ABS combine the strength and rigidity of polymers of acrylonitrile and styrene with the viscosity of polybutadiene rubber. Although the cost of producing ABS is about twice the cost of producing polystyrene, it is believed that it is superior in its hardness, gloss, viscosity and electrical insulating properties.
Another modern innovation in the world of loupes is that customers are asked to use the built-in light source for their loupes. For many hobbies, such as reading or sewing, if the natural light becomes darker, then it becomes more difficult to make a hobby during any period of time. The light in the room inevitably casts the shadow of an individual head on an object that increases, so the obvious solution is to create a light source in the lens. Many good loops will automatically build it and, with one click of the thumb, simply turn on the powerful LED lights, which will then bathe in the light of anyone looking at ... text, stamps, diagrams, or tags,
The lenses themselves are usually made from two different materials. A larger lens with a smaller magnification is still made of high-quality optical glass to provide an occlusion-free surface, and provides a constant and permanent increase over the entire surface area. You can say a good magnifying glass, because the best magnifying glasses have clear vision without distortion right on the surface of the lens.
Smaller lenses, called loops, which usually have a higher magnification of 10 times or more, are usually made from high quality acrylic and are durable, durable and scratch resistant.
Another innovation - one pen with multiple interchangeable lenses. One lens can be changed for another in seconds, simply by squeezing the two buttons on the side of the handle together. One will slip and the other can be clicked depending on what you are using the lens for. It is a much cheaper way to own different lenses that are suitable for different needs.
These are modern loupes for you ... a little for all traders who will continue to learn new tricks as the client requires.
