4080 120 cm wave and geometrical optics bench

With this optical bench, the teacher can perform a great number of quantitative and qualitative experiments on both geometrical and undulating aspects of optic waves. This bench is a necessary educational instrument in order to make a lesson a real moment of union between theory and experimental reality, and this is because of the quickness of its assembly and the ease in performing the experiments.
