Travelling Microscope Manufacturer,Supplier and Exporter in India
Product Code : SCL-LM-11256
A travelling microscope combines a focusing microscope with a guided movement and graduated measuring arrangement. The microscope is aligned with the point being observed and then moved between reference positions so that the displacement can be determined from the scale readings.
The instrument is commonly used in practical physics work involving optical measurements, liquid surfaces and small vertical or horizontal displacements. It complements other light and optics laboratory equipment used for quantitative observation and measurement. Exact travel, least count, magnification and construction details must be confirmed for the selected Lab Exports model.
Key Features
Optical positional observation: Helps locate fine reference points that may be difficult to identify with the unaided eye.
Controlled microscope movement: Enables comparative readings at different positions during laboratory experiments.
Graduated measuring arrangement: Allows displacement to be determined from scale and vernier readings where provided.
Focusing capability: Supports clear observation of the selected surface, mark, image or interface.
Quantitative experiment support: Connects visual observations with measured linear displacement.
Reusable teaching instrument: Suitable for repeated supervised use in college and university physics laboratories.
Manual operation: Does not normally require an electrical power source for measurement.

Applications and Uses
Determining the refractive index of a liquid by apparent-depth measurement
Measuring small vertical displacements in practical physics experiments
Locating liquid surfaces, optical images or fine reference marks
Supporting capillary-rise and surface-tension investigations where specified by the practical method
Comparing the positions of an object and its image
Teaching vernier reading, focusing, parallax removal and observational measurement
How to Use the Travelling Microscope
Place the instrument on a stable, level and vibration-free laboratory table.
Position the experimental object or vessel within the microscope’s viewing and movement range.
Adjust the eyepiece and microscope focus until the reference point appears clear.
Remove parallax by checking that the image and cross-wire remain aligned when the eye position changes slightly.
Bring the cross-wire onto the first reference point and record the scale reading.
Move the microscope to the second reference point without disturbing the experimental setup.
Record the second reading and calculate the displacement from the difference.
Repeat the measurement and use consistent readings according to the approved practical procedure.
Safety and handling note: Do not force the focusing or travelling mechanisms. Handle glass vessels and optical components carefully, and use the instrument under appropriate laboratory supervision.
Care and Maintenance
Clean the lenses only with suitable lens tissue or an approved optical cleaning material.
Keep guideways, scales and vernier markings free from dust and chemical residue.
Move adjustment controls gently and never apply excessive force at the end of the travel range.
Store the instrument covered in a dry, secure location away from vibration and corrosive chemicals.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is a Travelling Microscope used for?
A Travelling Microscope is used to observe fine reference points and measure the displacement between two positions. It is commonly used in optics, apparent-depth and liquid-surface experiments.
How does a Travelling Microscope measure distance?
The microscope is focused on two reference positions in sequence. The distance is calculated from the difference between the corresponding scale readings.
Can it determine the refractive index of a liquid?
Yes. A travelling microscope can support an apparent-depth experiment in which the refractive index is calculated from real-depth and apparent-depth measurements.
What is the least count of this Travelling Microscope?
The least count is not stated in the available product information. Buyers should confirm the main scale, vernier divisions and resulting least count before procurement.
Is the Travelling Microscope suitable for schools?
It is best suited to supervised senior-secondary, college and university physics laboratories where students have been trained to read vernier scales and handle optical instruments.
What specifications should buyers confirm before ordering?
Confirm the horizontal and vertical travel, least count, scale range, magnification, focusing arrangement, construction, included accessories and protective packing.
