Double Axis Magnislide - Newcastle Discovery Museum
The Double Axis Magnislide is positioned over a glass display case. The case can be mounted horizontally, vertically or at an angle.
Items on display are 1930's Coal Tickets.
Designed to become an integral part of a coin display case, this Dual Axis Magnislide has two sliding mechanisms built onto a robust aluminium section frame.
The magnifier heads, one for each side, move horizontally and vertically to scan coins mounted into cassettes that sit between the parallel rails. The heads are counterbalanced so that they remain in the selected position.
Mounted in front of a display case and pivoted on a hinge to allow clear access to the case, this Single Axis Magnislide is at the Corinium Museum in Cirencester.
Designed to scan left to right at the bottom right hand corner of the case the sliding head is illuminated with 2 LED's.
