Low profile mirror mount offers stable platform
Optical Surfaces has developed a new low profile mirror mount that provides a secure platform for large and heavy high-precision mirrors.
Robustly designed in black anodised aluminium, the mount can be tailored to match the size and shape of the mirror in a compact low-profile envelope. To enable optimisation of alignment the mount allows fine adjustment of mirror rotation. In addition, angular alignment (tip and tilt) of mounted mirrors is achieved about the vertical and horizontal axes using dual-action adjusters with fine-screw and ultrafine differential micrometre action.
Perfect for stability critical applications these low-profile mounts make it possible to rapidly align a large mirror within a few arc seconds. Each mount comes with a baseplate to facilitate rapid and simple mounting onto an optical table.
