# Description and specifications:
Microscope service element / repair part of the XY microscope mechanical stage for microscopes:
- Carl Zeiss Jena Ergaval
- Carl Zeiss Jena Amplival
- Carl Zeiss Jena Metaval
- Carl Zeiss Jena Docuval
- Carl Zeiss Jena NU-2

There are several models of mechanical microscope stages from Carl Zeiss Jena designed for microscopes of the Mikroval series. They differ mainly in the placement of the control knobs used for movement in both axes, for example:
- the Ergaval model has a short handle with control knobs
- the Amplival model has a long handle
- some variants of the Laboval model had a stage without a handle with control knobs, where the knobs were arranged horizontally on both sides of the stage.

However, many of the individual components used in these stages are identical.

Many of these stages can also be used interchangeably with other microscopes of the Mikroval series, which means that many microscopes today no longer have their original stages. For this reason it is best to examine the photos carefully to make sure that the element shown and offered here will fit.

The surface of these microscope stages is often very worn. You could try painting it, but it's definitely better to replace it. The piece I'm showing here isn't perfect - it shows signs of wear, but it's in very good condition.

In the photo gallery there are detailed photos of this element together with the dimensions. Additionally, in the last photo an arrow indicates which element is being referred to and where it is located, in order to clearly identify this part.

# Examples of use
- as a repair part by replacing the entire damaged element
- if you have a microscope stage where this element still works but is of very poor quality.
