Stage micrometers and graticules for light microscopy

precise stage micrometers for LM calibration and measurement

Transmitted light | Reflected light | Counting graticules | England / Halton inder slides & particle analysis test slide

Introduction

These high quality precise stage micrometers are intended for calibration of standard light microscopes, digital microscopes, stereo microscopes and eyepiece reticules. Additional graticules are offered for counting, location finders and test patterns.
The patterns are manufactured by vacuum deposited chromium lines on glass. The deposited chromium is wear resistant to ensure long term use. The stage micrometer patterns are deposited on a 16mm diameter glass disc which is mounted in a black anodised aluminium slide with a size of 76x25x1mm. They are covered with a No.0 (0.13mm) cover glass. This robust construction protects the pattern and makes them ideal for routine use, instructional purposes and industrial settings.

The following types are available:

Stage micrometers for transmitted light with line, cross and graduated patterns
Stage micrometers for reflected light with line patterns
Counting graticules
Location finder (England / Halton) and particle analysis test slide

Optionally available calibration certificates for the stage micrometers are:

Manufacturers comparison measurement certificate, non-traceable – Grats sample certificate
Calibration by UKAS accredited laboratory, traceable – UKAS sample certificate
Calibration certificate issued by NPL, traceable – NPL sample certificate
