Applications

Bridging thread standards

Mate metric and imperial hardware, and parts from vendors that were never designed to meet.

Establishing a reference axis

Targets and irises give a repeatable datum to align the rest of the path against.

Checking alignment

Verify beam height, centration and pointing without disturbing what is already set.

Building a stable opto-mechanical rig

Vibration, 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.
