Ray Box Optics Activity Set
Product Code : SCL-LAO-12074
Ray Box Optics Activity Set (SKU SCL-LAO-12074) combines a 12 V ray box with clear acrylic lenses, a prism and a semicircular block, so a student group can map reflection and refraction from one storage tray. It fits lower- and upper-secondary physics and introductory college labs. The set is manufactured in Saha, Ambala, India, at Plot 448 of the HSIIDC Industrial Area, and Science Lab Supplies dispatches it from there to schools, colleges, tender contractors and distributors.
Specifications
All details of this ray box activity set are given row by row below. In short, a 12 V ray box in a heat-resistant polymer chassis takes single, triple or five-beam slit masks and colour sheets, and works with four polished PMMA optical shapes held in a foam-slotted tray.

Applications and Experiments for the Ray Box Optics Activity Set
Students fit a slit mask, place an acrylic shape in the beam and trace the entry, internal and exit rays with a pencil, then measure angles. With lenses, a prism and a semicircular block in one tray, the set is versatile physics lab equipment in India for ray optics activities.
- Class 10: refraction through the semicircular block and prism, and Snell's law from measured angles.
- Class 10–12: focal points of the double convex and double concave lenses from crossing rays and the thin-lens relation.
- Class 12: critical angle and total internal reflection; compare the acrylic block with a Half-Round Optical Glass Slab.
- Colour work: overlaying sheets from a Color Filter Set in the filter tracks.
Standard Scope of Supply
One set holds the ray box, a double convex lens, a double concave lens, an equilateral prism and a semicircular refracting block, all in acrylic, with two reversible multi-slit masks and a protective foam-slotted tray. The 12 V power pack and colour sheets are separate and can be quoted on request.
Packing, MOQ and Lead Time
Quotes are available for a single activity set or for enough sets to give each group its own. Packing, delivery time and price are stated for the quantity you name, and power packs, filter sheets or extra prisms may be listed on the same quotation to keep ordering simple.
As an exporter registered under an Importer-Exporter Code, Science Lab Supplies can ship to buyers in Malaysia, Peru, Egypt, Iraq, Nigeria and Kenya. To start, message the team from the contact page, list the sets you want in the enquiry cart, or open the lab tender page if you are preparing a bid.
Frequently Asked Questions
What power supply does the ray box need?
It runs from a 12 V AC/DC laboratory power pack supplying at least 2 A, connected through the 4 mm safety sockets. The pack is not part of the set and can be added to your quotation.
How many beams can the set produce?
With the two reversible multi-slit masks the ray box gives a single beam, three beams or five parallel beams, enough to show refraction angles and to find where rays meet after a lens.
Will the optical shapes break if dropped?
They are PMMA acrylic rather than glass, so they resist breaking. Return them to the foam slots after class and dust them with a soft cloth only; alcohol or solvents can damage the polished edges.
Who makes the activity set?
Science Lab Supplies makes it, as a manufacturer with its own production unit in Saha, Ambala, India. Your quotation comes from the people who build the set, not from a distributor reselling it.
