Lascells
Lascells was founded in 1997 by physics teacher John Whitehead who wanted to take his designs out of a single prep room and offer them to likeminded teachers across the UK. His ideas were quick to catch on and the company’s offering of laboratory equipment went from strength to strength. As the equipment list grew so did the techniques and skills required to manufacture them.
Advanced machinery, skilled technicians and a love of science, design and engineering drove innovation, something the company is now well known for. The company continually strives to improve the design of and introduce new products to aid the teaching of science.
Through internal R&D, collaboration with partners and working alongside schools and universities Lascells continues to bring forth the best in science resources.
From the moment Lascells was founded its vision has been to make the teaching of practical science easier for educators and more enjoyable for students. Whether you are teaching forces and mechanics, experimenting with waves or planning electronics projects they have something for you.
One of the great joys of the world is understanding how it works and this is the cornerstone of their thinking. The company design physics apparatus with ease of use, durability and the learning outcomes in mind. they aim to reduce setup time and unnecessary complications so that teachers can spend valuable lesson time preparing students for a future in physics and engineering.
3 LED Object for Optical Bench Pair
3 LED Object for Optical Bench PairThis apparatus is an optional extra for the Optics Bench Pair. It replaces the object screen in the box and removes the need for a bench lamp.
Action – Reaction Platforms [pair]
Action – Reaction Platforms [pair]These trolleys are large enough for students to sit on to experience the effect of Newton’s Third Law.
Adjustable Laser Pointer Stand
Adjustable Laser Pointer StandThe Lascells Adjustable Laser Stand is the ideal hands-free solution for securing a laser pointer at a user-defined height and angle. The angle can be adjusted through the full 360 degree range, and the height can be adjusted through a range of 10cm. The acrylic stand has a wide base providing excellent stability
Adjustable Magnet
Adjustable MagnetConsisting of a steel frame with lockable, adjustable jaws which will accept 50 x 20mm ferrite slab magnets or neodymium button magnets. The field strength can be changed by adjusting the distance.
Aluminium Foil Support Bar
Aluminium Foil Support BarA neat and effective way of supporting foil strips when demonstrating the attraction and repulsion of current carrying conductors.
B.I.L. COIL
B.I.L. COILA printed circuit board coil on support handle with 5 and 10 turns rated at 2A. The lower arm of the coil is 75mm long (minimum) and 20mm wide.
Bartons Pendulums
Bartons PendulumsBarton’s pendulums is a well known resonance effect but usually difficult to set up and store. This apparatus stores flat and can be quickly unfolded to show the resonance between similar length pendulums. Once the demonstration is over it can be closed up again to safely store the pendulum arrangement until required again.
Product code: LA30-070
Battery Eliminator
Battery EliminatorThe Lascells battery eliminator is a light-weight and compact power supply intended to reduce the science departments’ need for batteries.
Bi-Metal Strip
Bi-Metal StripThis consists of a bimetalic strip 220 × 18 × 1mm attached to a wooden handle. Gentle heating causes the strip to bend into a pronounced curve demonstrating that different metals expand by different amounts.
BI-Metal Strip Kit
BI-Metal Strip KitA class kit which consists of 10 bi-metal strips measuring 100 × 8 × 0.5 securely attached to wooden supports, 50 × 35 × 12mm. Students can produce thermostats while revising simple circuit ideas in an excellent investigation.
Boyles Law Digital apparatus
Boyles Law Digital apparatusThe Digital Boyle’s Law Apparatus provides a self contained, reliable and simple way of demonstrating Boyle’s Law. The volume may be reduced or increased by means of a 2.5ml syringe connected to a digital pressure sensor.
