Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What microscopes is this mechanical stage compatible with?
A: This attachable mechanical stage is designed to fit most standard compound microscopes. Its two locating pins, spaced 35 mm apart, provide a universal attachment point. We recommend verifying your microscope's stage dimensions against the extended width (14.5 cm) and length (16 cm) specifications before purchasing.
Q: What does the 0.01 mm accuracy mean for specimen positioning?
A: The Vernier scale on this mechanical stage reads to a precision of 0.01 mm, meaning you can move and record the position of your specimen to within one-hundredth of a millimeter. This level of precision is ideal for consistent re-positioning of slides in research, education, and inspection applications.
Q: Is the stage easy to attach and remove from the microscope?
A: Yes — the stage is designed as a clip-on, attachable accessory, allowing it to be mounted or removed without permanent modification to your microscope. This makes it convenient for shared lab environments or multi-microscope setups.
Q: Why does this listing include 4 units?
A: This pack includes 4 × Microscope Moveable Caliper Stages, making it ideal for classrooms, multi-station labs, or research facilities that require multiple setups. It offers excellent value compared to purchasing individual units.
