Product Code : SCL-LAO-12073
Five-Diode Laser Ray Box (SKU SCL-LAO-12073) is a low-voltage light source that projects one, three or five parallel red laser lines for tracing rays through lenses, blocks and prisms. It suits senior-secondary and undergraduate optics groups. Manufacturing takes place at the Science Lab Supplies plant on Plot 448, HSIIDC Industrial Area, Saha, Ambala, India, from where the box goes to schools, colleges, tender contractors and distributors.
Specifications
The table records each specification of the five-beam laser box. In short, five Class II red diodes of 635–650 nm sit 15 mm apart in an impact-resistant ABS case with a magnetic base, a 1/3/5 beam selector and a 5 V DC, 500 mA adapter input.

Applications and Experiments for the Five-Diode Laser Ray Box
Laid flat on paper or held on a steel board by its magnets, the box sends thin parallel lines that stay visible in normal classroom light, so students can mark rays without darkening the room. It is practical optics lab equipment for schools teaching refraction, lenses and total internal reflection.
- Class 10 and 12: Snell's law and lateral shift through a Plane Glass Optical Slab.
- Class 12 ray optics: critical angle and total internal reflection in a Half-Round Optical Glass Slab.
- Class 12 and B.Sc.: locating the focal point of converging and diverging lenses from where the beams cross.
- Reflection from plane and curved mirrors on the magnetic board of the Optical Reflection Demonstration Kit.
Laser safety: never look into the output window or point beams at anyone's eyes, as Class II lasers can irritate the retina. Use it under teacher supervision.
Standard Scope of Supply
Every unit ships with the laser ray box, a 5 V DC universal mains adapter, a protective storage case with custom foam inlay and a user manual with ray-tracing guidelines. Optical blocks, lenses and tracking boards are not included; they can be added to the same quotation as separate items.
Packing, MOQ and Lead Time
You may request a price for a single laser box or for one per student group. Each quotation gives the packing, delivery time and price for that quantity, and glass blocks, prisms or a ray board can be quoted on it as well, so the optics bench is priced in one go.
Because it holds an Importer-Exporter Code, Science Lab Supplies is able to ship to buyers in Vietnam, Malaysia, Peru, Egypt, Iraq and Nigeria. Reach the sales desk on the contact page, put several products into the enquiry cart for one combined reply, or check the lab tender page for tender support.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can we use one or three beams instead of five?
Yes. The multi-position switch selects 1, 3 or 5 active laser outputs. A single beam suits Snell's law readings, while three or five beams show where rays converge after a lens.
Do the beams stay parallel across the sheet?
Yes. Internal collimating lenses keep the five lines parallel, 15 mm apart, across a normal tracking sheet. Wipe the aperture shield with a dry cloth, as dust spreads the beams.
Does it need an optical bench or batteries?
No. The flat base rests on any bench sheet, and its magnets hold it on steel boards or whiteboards. It runs from the supplied 5 V DC adapter, so no batteries are involved.
Is this laser box made by Science Lab Supplies?
Yes, Science Lab Supplies manufactures it in its own factory at Saha, Ambala, India. Your enquiry is answered by the producer itself, which handles pricing, packing and dispatch without any outside trading firm.
