Pohl Forced Oscillation Device
Product Code : SCL-PLE-10458
The Forced Oscillation Device according to Prof. R. W. Pohl (Torsional Pendulum) from Lab Glassware Manufacturer, headquartered in Ambala, Haryana, India, is a physics laboratory apparatus used for demonstrating free oscillation, forced oscillation, damping, resonance and phase shift in a torsional pendulum system. Since 1982, the company has manufactured and exported physics lab equipment, laboratory glassware and scientific instruments to schools, colleges and universities worldwide, including growing demand from East Asia — Japan, South Korea and Taiwan — where university physics departments continue to source classic oscillation and resonance demonstration apparatus.
Quick Answer: The Pohl Forced Oscillation Device is a torsional pendulum apparatus used to study free oscillation, forced oscillation, damping and resonance, letting students observe how an oscillating system responds as a driving frequency approaches its natural frequency.

A University-Standard Apparatus for Studying Resonance
Named after physicist Robert Wichard Pohl, this torsional pendulum apparatus is a widely used standard for teaching resonance behavior at university level, letting students plot amplitude against driving frequency and observe the characteristic resonance peak and phase shift. It is often introduced after simpler free-oscillation apparatus such as a basic pendulum. Lab Glassware Manufacturer also supplies the Pendulum Set, a foundational apparatus for introducing oscillation concepts before moving to forced-oscillation and resonance study.
