Applications

Pre-aligned optical axes

Four rods define the axis, so every element threaded onto them starts square and centred.

Modular subassembly building

Build a relay, filter block or launch module that can be moved between setups intact.

Compact instrument integration

Package an optical train into a rigid unit for OEM and portable instruments.

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.
