LINTABTM is a robust and precise measurement table for assessment of tree-ring series from increment cores, stem disks and other wooden samples.Equipped with a high quality stereo microscope it can reach

an optional precision of 1/1’000 mm.


Advantages

Ergonomic

Hand crank at the right or (optional) heading to the front.

High precision linear encoder: measurement without backlash.

Easy handling

Water-and dust-proved design: Spindle is encased and therefore unsus-ceptible for dirt from wet or decayed samples.

Compatible

Connection to PC via USB-cable or standard serial (optional)

Data assessment by TSAP-Win software. Can be exported to most otherformats.

Portable

USB-connection: no external power supply is necessary, therefore, the in-strument can also be used in the field.

Precise

Resolution from 1/100 mm (standard) to 1/1’000 mm (optional).

Flexible


Sample weight up to 50 kg.

Measurement left to right or right to left as well as from pith to bark or viceversa (adjustable).

System parts:

LINTABTMis built from an industrial linear feeding device, designed to move up to 50 kg of weight.

The measurement length can be adapted to customers demands (on request).

The 50x50 cm sample plate can also carry large samples.

The hand crank is attached at the right side or is heading to the front (mitre gear).

The measurement signals can be given by a cable mouse, a foot switch (optional) or by the PC mouse.

A stereo microscope is directly attached to the table by a solid stand.LED sources are used for optimal illumination. Other light sources on request

Measurement data are transferred to a PC by USB or serial port and recorded by the software TSAP-Win.
