Get images of exceptional clarity and reliable quantitative data, even under the most challenging low-light conditions. Equipped with a scientific-grade 16-bit camera, the E-Box offers both sensitivity and speed in one powerful optical system. Its back-illuminated sensor technology, combined with a state-of-the-art motorized zoom lens, allows you to achieve optimal signal acquisition. This superior detection contributes to significantly reducing exposure times, as well as lowering dye consumption and avoiding photobleaching.

Interchangeable Pads

The PadBox is a smart, slide-out container designed to host multiple interchangeable Pads. Each Pad can also be used as a standalone illumination device with an optional plug adapter.

Simply select the Pad you need—UV, Blue, White, or even your own custom hardware, such as a heater, cooler, electrophoresis tank, or specialized light source. With 6 Application Pads and 3 conversion screens available, you can switch seamlessly between transilluminators to suit any workflow. The system automatically recognizes each Pad when connected, allowing the E-Box to instantly adjust its imaging settings in the software.

Easiest Image Acquisition Process

The E-Box automatically controls the camera, lens, and lighting to deliver optimal results. Select your application and press “Auto”: the system lights the transilluminator, adjusts the lens, sets exposure, and turns off UV safely. Each step is handled by the software, letting you focus on your research instead of technical settings. The interface is ergonomically designed, and the menu is simple and intuitive, making it perfect for multi-user environments.

Magster
Technology

The standalone E-Box CX5 features a high-contrast, medical-grade touchscreen protected by magnesium-reinforced glass. This proprietary Magster technology lets you see the finest grey variations and subtle details in your gels with absolute clarity.

Get flawless image definition at any scale. Every gesture (tap, pinch, drag, rotate, etc) responds instantly, so navigation feels precise and effortless. And because the reinforced glass is both durable and resistant to common lab chemicals, you can rely on the system even in the most demanding and secure laboratory environments.

Image Dynamic Performance

While most molecular imaging systems focus only on detecting protein signals, our E-Box goes further. Our 16-bit camera technology makes full use of the 65,535 available grey levels, offering a far superior dynamic range compared to conventional imagers.

This advanced control of image depth reveals even the smallest intensity differences and delivers grey-level data of exceptional richness. Quantification becomes more accurate and more reliable. With Vilber’s 3D image dynamic technology, each image reaches its full potential and offers both outstanding detection performance and highly precise analytical results.
