Application context
Application guidance is derived from the product family and tied to the model-specific selection fields above.
Lift a subassembly to a beam height the table grid alone cannot reach.
Spread load and add stiffness under mounts that would otherwise sit on a single post.
Build a raised platform over an occupied area of the table to reclaim floor space.
Model selection
Compare BP-20 with the closest available models in the BP Series Base Plate family. Confirm option-dependent values on the final configuration before ordering.

Before you specify
Engineering context for choosing this class of component, with the tradeoffs worked through on real specifications.
Opto-mechanicsVibration, thermal drift and mechanical integration are one problem. Budget the motion at the sample, then specify the table, the isolation, the mounts and the beam height that budget asks for.
