Engineering reference
Specify APFP-XY from the interfaces inward
APFP-XY is a configurable optical mounting component in the Mirror Mount & Cage System family. The final part number should be released only after the optical, mechanical, electrical and environmental fields below are matched to the intended instrument.
An optical mount locates an optic relative to mechanical datums while controlling stress and angular drift. Optic size, clear aperture, axis height, adjustment sensitivity, locking behavior and base pattern must be matched as one geometry.
The local price-list record does not provide a complete model specification or datasheet. These fields identify what must be confirmed on the model drawing and quotation without inventing an option-dependent value.
Configuration fields to confirm
- Optic or payload
- Confirm diameter, thickness, shape, mass and allowable clamping stress.
- Optical geometry
- State clear aperture, optical-axis height and required orientation.
- Adjustment
- Define angular or linear range, sensitivity, resolution and lock requirement.
- Stability
- Set stiffness, drift and return-to-position requirements under expected thermal change.
- Base interface
- Match M6/25 mm or 1/4"-20/1 inch mounting, footprint and datum surfaces.
- Environment
- Confirm vacuum, cryogenic, non-magnetic or cleanroom material requirements.
Qualification sequence
- 1Define the measurement objective and the performance limit that APFP-XY must satisfy.
- 2Freeze wavelength, mechanical, fiber and electrical interfaces before selecting option codes.
- 3Check loss, noise, heat, motion or vibration contributions in the complete system budget.
- 4Confirm the final drawing, pinout, environmental suffix and acceptance test with the quotation.
Application context
Why this design is used
Application guidance is derived from the product family and tied to the model-specific selection fields above.
Modular laboratory assemblies
Axis height and hole pattern allow the component to exchange with neighboring optics without rebuilding the reference geometry.
Technical FAQ
Integration questions for APFP-XY
What must be specified before ordering APFP-XY?
Confirm optic or payload, optical geometry, adjustment, stability, base interface, and environment. These fields are coupled, so the final part number should be checked against the complete instrument rather than selected from the model name alone.
How should APFP-XY be integrated into the system?
An optical mount locates an optic relative to mechanical datums while controlling stress and angular drift. Optic size, clear aperture, axis height, adjustment sensitivity, locking behavior and base pattern must be matched as one geometry. Freeze the optical, mechanical and electrical interfaces before releasing the surrounding assembly.
Which documentation should be approved for APFP-XY?
Approve the configuration-specific specification, mechanical drawing, connector or pinout definition, environmental suffix and acceptance-test limits supplied with the quotation. Any field absent from the local record remains a confirmation item, not an assumed capability.
