Optical Bench with 3 Stands

Product Code : SCL-388/092

Optical Bench with 3 Stands (Product Code: SCL-388/092) is a one-metre, double-rod optical bench used to mount and align mirrors, lenses and object needles for focal-length experiments in school and college physics labs. One rod is stainless steel graduated in millimetres and the other chrome-plated steel, both carried on heavy cast iron feet with levelling screws. It is manufactured by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), an OEM manufacturer, at its own factory in Ambala, India.

What Is an Optical Bench Used For?

An optical bench holds the object needle, the mirror or lens and the image needle on one straight, graduated track, so students can measure object and image distances precisely. It is the standard setup for finding the focal length of a concave mirror or convex lens by the u–v method, and a core piece of optics lab equipment in India for senior secondary practicals.

Level the bench with the screws on its cast iron feet before starting, then read each position from the index mark on its slider against the millimetre scale. The transverse slow-motion sliders let students bring needle tips exactly into line and remove parallax, and wiping the rods clean after use keeps the sliders running smoothly.

What to Specify When Ordering

  • The number of optical benches required for your practical groups.
  • The stand and slider configuration you need, confirmed at quotation.
  • Which mirrors and lenses should be quoted with the benches.

OEM Manufacturer

Jain Scientific Equipments Private Limited, trading as ScienceLab, manufactures this optical bench as the OEM at its own factory in Saha, Ambala, Haryana, India, where the bench is made and assembled. Buying from the manufacturer means sliders, stands and replacement parts can be requested directly — just ask us — and quotations for a complete optics setup come from one source. The company’s background is on its profile page.

Frequently Asked Questions

How long is the Optical Bench with 3 Stands?
The Optical Bench with 3 Stands is one metre long. Its stainless steel rod is graduated in millimetres, so the positions of the mirror, lens and needles can be read directly from the index marks on the sliders.

What are the rods of the Optical Bench with 3 Stands made of?
The Optical Bench with 3 Stands has two rods: one of stainless steel graduated in millimetres and one of chrome-plated steel. Both rods are supported on heavy cast iron feet fitted with levelling screws, giving a steady and level track.

What sliders come with the Optical Bench with 3 Stands?
The listing for the Optical Bench with 3 Stands describes four specially designed metal sliders with index marks for reading on the scale, two of them with a transverse slow-motion arrangement. Please confirm the stand and slider configuration you need when requesting a quotation.

Which experiments use the Optical Bench with 3 Stands?
The Optical Bench with 3 Stands is used to find the focal length of a concave mirror or convex lens by the u–v method and to study image formation. Its transverse slow motion helps students align needle tips and remove parallax accurately.

How is the Optical Bench with 3 Stands levelled?
Level the Optical Bench with 3 Stands by adjusting the screws on its cast iron feet until the rods are horizontal, then check that every slider moves freely along the full length. A level bench keeps the optical axis aligned during readings.

Who manufactures the Optical Bench with 3 Stands?
The Optical Bench with 3 Stands is manufactured by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab) as the OEM at its own factory in Saha, Ambala, Haryana, India. It is supplied factory-direct to schools, colleges, dealers and importers in India and international markets.
