Travelling Microscopes
Product Code : JA-PLE-4222
The Travelling Microscope (SKU JA-PLE-4222) is a precision measuring microscope that moves along horizontal and vertical stainless steel scales, so small distances can be read to 0.01 mm with its screw gauge dial. The tube can be inclined at any angle, with true vertical and horizontal positions marked. This travelling microscope with 0.01 mm least count is a standard instrument in class 11-12 and B.Sc physics practicals.
Specifications
The microscope has an achromatic objective with a 7.5 cm working distance and a 10X Ramsden eyepiece with fine cross wire, an 18 cm horizontal and 16 cm vertical stainless steel scale divided in 1 mm, and a 100-division screw gauge dial reading to 0.01 mm.

Applications of the travelling microscope
The travelling microscope is used whenever a small length must be measured without touching the object, by focusing the cross wire on each edge in turn and reading the difference in scale and dial positions.
- Refractive index of a glass slab by the real and apparent depth method
- Internal diameter of a capillary tube for surface tension by capillary rise
- Measuring the diameters of Newton's rings
- Measuring small extensions and fine wire or tube dimensions
- Class 11-12 physics practicals and B.Sc and engineering physics laboratories
