Wanted Zeiss Jena Amplival

Post by Tardigrade37 »

Hi all,

I recently purchased a complete Interphako device with no stand to mount it on. I am looking for an Amplival rather than an Ergaval due to the size and weight of the Interphako. There are a few potential candidates on eBay, but I wanted to check here first.

Thanks!

Chris

In 1980 I was a product manager for these instruments.
My suggestion to you would be to mount the Interphako device on any more modern reasearch grade stand if you can make the adaptation.

If you find an Amplival out there don't pay too much for it. Make sure all the movements will move. They used a lot of bronze v ways at close tolerance and the lubricants can turn into solid adhesives.
