Product description

Precise 10" fiber optic lightline for microscopy and inspection, calibrated for uniform grayscale illumination.

The Schott Lightline A08910 is a high-precision fiber optic lightline designed as an alternative to traditional fiber optic bundles, optimized for microscopy and inspection applications. This lightline assembly features a calibrated output using a DDL-bulb, achieving a mean grayscale level of 200 with a gamma of 1.0 for optimal illumination uniformity across samples, critical in fluorescence analysis and biomedical imaging.

  • Dimensions: 10.0 inches length by 0.020 inches thickness
  • Tolerance: Fiber axis aligned within ±0.004" (0.1 mm) to ensure parallelism with the mounting surface for consistent light output
  • Construction: Rugged aluminum body with black anodized finish and PVC covered metal tubing protecting the fiber bundle, supporting durability in laboratory environments
  • Customization: Available in custom lengths and configurations including dual and quad bundle exits, with optional cylindrical and apertured lenses for tailored light shaping
  • Applications: Widely used in advanced microscopy, live-cell imaging, industrial inspection, and optical instrumentation setups requiring precise linear illumination
  • Relevance to Biotechnology: Essential for molecular diagnostics and synthetic biology workflows demanding evenly distributed fiber optic illumination for accurate sample visualization and image capture

The Schott Lightline A08910 facilitates enhanced biophotonics research and biomanufacturing inspection protocols by delivering stable, uniform illumination critical in gene editing experiments and bioprocessing stages. Optional mounting holders and support accessories further enable integration into complex laboratory optical systems, making it a versatile component in neuroscience imaging and cellular-level analysis setups.

Why Questpair exists

Lab equipment markets are fragmented. Buyers spend weeks calling distributors, comparing quotes, and verifying supplier reliability. Sellers struggle to reach global research labs.

We built Questpair to fix this. Every supplier on the platform is verified before listing. Every quote you receive comes from a real, vetted seller. AI prepares your case in minutes, then a real specialist takes over.

We're an independent team based in The Netherlands, working with research labs and procurement teams across Europe and worldwide.

Frequently asked questions

How long does laboratory equipment typically last?

With a service contract, ten to fifteen years is normal for most benchtop instruments. Detectors and pumps are the parts that wear first.

Can I get service for older equipment?

Often, yes. Verified suppliers frequently work with service partners converting the instrument. If applicable, we can list servicing options alongside the offer.

Where can I buy parts?

Ask a scientist through the request button. Parts are often available even when the instrument itself is discontinued.

What is the typical lead time for refurbished equipment?

Two to six weeks, depending on refurbishment scope and whether calibration is included.

Does laboratory equipment ship internationally?

We ship to 38 countries. Crating and customs handling are quoted with the instrument.
