Transverse Wave Pendulum Apparatus – Visual Wave Propagation Model | Manufactured by Samtech Instruments

Samtech Instruments, a premier educational lab equipment manufacturer based in Ambala Cantt, India, since 2002, introduces the Transverse Wave Pendulum Apparatus—a hands-on physics model that clearly demonstrates transverse wave motion using pendulum oscillations.

Perfect for school physics labs, STEM demonstrations, and wave mechanics experiments, this apparatus transforms abstract wave concepts into a real-time visual experience.

What Is the Transverse Wave Pendulum Apparatus?

This apparatus is a mechanical model designed to demonstrate transverse wave propagation using a series of pendulums suspended from a horizontal frame. It includes:

• A durable frame with a stable base

• 9 plastic balls suspended on nylon strings

• Each pendulum has a progressively increasing string length, causing sequential oscillations

• When set into motion, the balls simulate wave peaks and troughs, mimicking transverse wave behavior

The balls move perpendicular to the direction of wave travel—just like in a true transverse wave.

Dimensions: 400 mm (L) × 145 mm (W) × 460 mm (H)
