Why You Should Import Digital Microscopes From China

Choosing what electronic products to import from China may be a difficult task, as there are a lot of factors to consider. Ideally, you would be looking for something that is relatively easy to get and comes from trusted suppliers, has good demand/potential demand in your target market, while not being offered by too many competitors.

There are surely lots of options to explore and in these series of posts we’d like to introduce you to a few ideas that you may find interesting for your respective markets, they also make great dropshipping products.

Why Digital Microscopes?

Digital microscopes are a relatively new product on the market, and yet the one with a great selling potential, thanks to the variety of its uses and target customers.

A digital microscope is an upgrade of a traditional microscope and uses optics and CCD camera to output a digital image of the object you are exploring onto a computer (or other) monitors. A digital microscope is also often equipped with its own LED light source and the user won’t have to observe the image through the eyepiece, but view it directly on the big screen – a much more convenient and efficient way to explore the object.

A digital microscope has a variety of uses – and thus, a variety of end buyers.

For Professionals

Digital microscopes are used by a wide range of professionals, from medical workers to technical professionals and more.

For instance, a high-resolution digital microscope is often used by engineers and (other tehnical professionals) for working with small electronics and fixing PCB boards. Thanks to the high resolution of modern microscopes and their ability to project images onto a big screen, they are able to detect the tiniest cracks and fix the smallest problems – which is becoming increasingly necessary, as our electronic devices are getting smaller and smaller.

For Students

A digital microscope is a great tool for students in any of the above professions and more – and an indispensable object in any University research facility. Thus, it can also be a valuable commodity in the field of education and scientific research, opening up new sales channels.

For Children and Families

In addition to all its functional uses, a digital microscope is a great deal of fun. It can be a wonderful tool for educating children about the world and exploring the microscopic universes around us. Once again, this means that your customer pool is getting even bigger – and you can explore new niches on the market.

How To Choose A Digital Microscope

With all the various types of potential customers, you may, however, want to choose a specific target market you’d like to focus on. If for no other reason than to be able to choose products with specific features, that would suit this or that niche better.

When choosing a digital microscope a lot will depend on its intended application – or, more precisely, the objects you will be observing.

When choosing what kind of microscopes to import, you will be looking at the two main types: high power microscopes and low power microscopes. Once again, it will all depend on who your end customers will be. High power microscopes are often used in biology and chemistry apps (in schools or Universities) for observing tissues, blood cells and other biological matter. They come with magnifying capabilities from 400x up to 1000x.

Low power microscopes are used in various other fields, from jewelry making to geology. They come with a magnification range from 20x to 80x and can be of various types: single power, dual power and zoom (the latter one, being the most popular option, as it allows for a wide range of magnifications).

Once again, when making your choice you will also need to consider the price range you are aiming for: high power microscopes naturally come with a heavier price tag, while low-power ones can fit more limited budgets.
