Microscope Travelling (Vernier) (Product Code: SCL/AG26-113) is a vernier travelling microscope used to measure small distances accurately on two axes, horizontal and vertical, in college and senior school physics practicals. A x10 eyepiece and x3 objective ride on brass electroplated main and vernier scales reading 0-165mm horizontally and 0-120mm vertically, over a heavy cast iron base with three levelling screws. It is made by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), an OEM manufacturer, at its own factory in Ambala, India.

A travelling microscope measures distances too small or too delicate for a ruler or calliper, without touching the object. Typical physics practical equipment tasks include measuring the diameters of Newton’s rings, the bore of a capillary tube for surface tension and viscosity experiments, the real and apparent depth of a glass block to find its refractive index, and the thickness of thin wires or cover slips.
Level the instrument first with the spirit level and levelling screws, then focus on the object and set the cross-wire on one edge. Take the scale and vernier reading, move the carriage to the opposite edge and read again; the difference is the distance. Always approach each edge from the same direction to avoid backlash, and return the microscope to its protective case after use.
The Microscope Travelling (Vernier) is manufactured by Jain Scientific Equipments Private Limited, trading as ScienceLab, as the original equipment manufacturer. It is built at the company’s own licensed factory at Saha, Ambala, Haryana, India, and sold factory-direct to colleges, schools, universities, dealers and importers, so quotations and service questions go straight to the maker. Tender and institutional buyers registering a new vendor can use GSTIN 06AAECJ8618A1ZT and LEI 3358004HRD1JIVXKYX49. See our company profile for more.

What can the Microscope Travelling (Vernier) measure?
The Microscope Travelling (Vernier) measures small distances on two axes, horizontally up to 0-165mm and vertically up to 0-120mm. It is used for Newton’s rings diameters, capillary bores, real and apparent depth, and other fine measurements in physics practicals.
What optics does the Microscope Travelling (Vernier) have?
The Microscope Travelling (Vernier) has a x10 optical eyepiece and a x3 objective, with a focal length of 50mm. This gives a clear, magnified view of the edge being measured while leaving working space between the objective and the specimen.
How is the Microscope Travelling (Vernier) levelled?
The Microscope Travelling (Vernier) stands on a heavy cast iron base fitted with three levelling screws and has a spirit level for checking. Height adjustable legs help set it at the right working height before measurements begin.
What is the least count of the Microscope Travelling (Vernier)?
Both scales of the Microscope Travelling (Vernier) carry a vernier for fine readings. If your practical manual requires a specific least count, please ask through the contact page and we will confirm it before you order.
Who manufactures the Microscope Travelling (Vernier)?
Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab) manufactures the Microscope Travelling (Vernier) as the OEM at its own licensed factory at Saha, Ambala, Haryana, India. It is supplied factory-direct with a protective case and instruction/maintenance manual to buyers in India and international markets.
Can a calibration certificate be supplied with the Microscope Travelling (Vernier)?
Calibration documentation is not part of the Microscope Travelling (Vernier) listing. If your laboratory needs a calibration certificate, please discuss it with us through the contact page before ordering so we can confirm what is possible.
