ESAW Vertical Reading Microscope (LO-5971)

The Vertical Reading Microscope consists of a microscope with rack focusing adjustment, mounted horizontally on an adjustable vertical column. The stereo typed design of the vertical column moving through 15 cm by rack & pinion is now replaced by a superior quality vertical pillar carrying the scale with the entire 15 cm vertically by smooth rack & pinion, moving inside a heavy vertical column carrying the brass vernier. Vernier spring is loaded for precise opposition to the scale. A guide slot and key ensure up&down movement the same plane. The stainless steel scale & vernier is machine divided to accuracy within ±0.01% or beer. The horizontal microscope tube is mounted on the vertical column and is adjustable by smooth rack & pinion, through twin-knobs on both sides. The microscope moves on the machined inter ground guides.
