Oxford? Microscopes

Oxford? Precision optical inspection equipment are manufactured to stringent quality standards they have precision ground lenses for distortion free vision. Within the range you?ll find folding pocket linen testers, eye loupes, bench mounted illuminated magnifiers and microscopes.

BCM400 Biological Compound Microscope

The Oxford? Precision BCM400 Compound Microscope also known as a biological microscope has a magnification range of a 10x eyepiece, 4x, 10x, and 40x objective lenses and can reveal details at the cellular level. This is the microscope preferred by medical laboratory technicians examining blood and urine, pathologists screening tissue specimens or smears for cancer cells and microbiologists identifying bacteria in cultures.

Compound microscopes take their name from the way magnification is calculated, by compounding the power of the eyepiece multiplied by the power of the objective to get total magnification; the BCM400 has x400 as the maximum magnification. Because of the magnification the field of view is small and because there is no depth perception (As opposed to dissecting microscopes such as the DSM040 from Oxford Precision) samples are usually mounted on microscope slides. Light is projected from the integral illuminator below the microscope slide to pass through the specimen to the magnifying objective lens. The magnified image of the specimen projects through the drawtube to the eyepiece where it is magnified, another 10x. The eyepiece sends the image to your eyes where the lens projects it on to our retina.

Oxford Precision? Vee Blocks

Are matched and numbered pairs of closed grained iron castings accurately machined. Precision 90 vee blocks. Supplied as a pair.

Plain Surface Plates

Surface plates are used when a precision surface is key. These plates are manufactured from high quality of close grained cast iron and are stress relieved against distortion by heat treatment. Rigidity and long lasting accuracy are ensured by adequate top and side thickness and ribbed construction. The surfaces are free from pin holes, planed and hand scraped. Manufactured to BS 817.

Anvils, Indentors & Test Blocks

To suit Oxford hardness tester.

V-Notch Anvil

Micrometer Setting Standards

For setting external micrometers, calipers etc. to zero, providing accurate repeatability of measurements. Flat, lapped measuring ends with fitted heat insulation block.
Manufactured to BS 870.

167 Series (Micrometer NOT included)
