Application context
Why this design is used
Application guidance is derived from the product family and tied to the model-specific selection fields above.
Coarse positioning ahead of fine stages
Establish the optical axis by hand before a piezo or motorised stage takes the fine motion.
Prototyping and teaching rigs
Reconfigure a layout quickly, with no cabling, controllers or electrical noise added to the experiment.
System integration
Integration and compatibility
Use these checks to connect FP-XYZTL to the surrounding optical, mechanical and control system. Every value shown is taken from this model's own specification record.
- Adjustment
- X / Y / Z travel: 13 mm · θy travel: ±3°
- Adjuster pitch sets the sensitivity you can actually work at. Confirm whether the stated figure is a total range or a per-revolution increment, and whether the mechanism is locked after adjustment.
Technical FAQ
Integration questions for FP-XYZTL
