TECHNICAL NOTE
Edmund Optics® off ers a wide variety of mounting and positioning products from simple optical
mounts and breadboard components to translation stages and optical tables. Our extensive
line of TECHSPEC® mounting and positioning products, available in both English and metric
standards, is designed for the fl exibility and cross compatibility needed to meet the demands
of the most complex optical systems.
Optical Mounts
Selecting the right mounting component is critical in maximizing the performance of an optical
system. Edmund Optics® off ers fi xed, adjustable, and self centering mounting options for a
range of optical components including lenses, fi lters, mirrors, polarizers and prisms.
Designed for easy integration from prototype to production and featuring
isolation from unwanted stray light, TECHSPEC® S-, C-, and
T-Mount Tube System remains one of the most versatile systems
available for optical components today. The S-, C-, and T-Mount
Tube System is used to create optical assemblies and sub assemblies
while enabling convenient alignment between components. The lens
mounts enable the user to change between lens components rapidly
and therefore provide fl exibility when designing an optical assembly.
The S-, C-, and T-Mount Tube System facilitates customizable and
modular systems unique to any applications requirements.
Edmund Optics’ TECHSPEC® Kinematic Mounts include optical
mounts and mounting table platforms. Each mount features either two
or three high accuracy 100 TPI adjustment screws and an angular
tip/tilt range of ±5°. Horizontal adapters are available for quick conversions
and to maximize clear apertures. High quality construction
materials ensure durability, stability, and repeatability.
Apertures
Ideal for controlling light input in imaging applications, Edmund
Optics off ers a variety of standard, harsh environment, zero aperture,
and motorizable irises. Our fi xed and adjustable slits are
designed for a range of spectroscopy applications. High power,
mounted, and unmounted pinholes are available for even the
most demanding laser applications.
Tables and Breadboard Components
Available in both English and metric standards, our tables and
breadboard components range from posts to optical tables, and
are designed to maximize fl exibility and compatibility.
Translation Stages
Edmund Optics’ linear, rotary, and tip/tilt translation stages
are available in rack and pinion, ball bearing, and crossed
roller bearing technologies. Designed for cross compatibility,
our TECHSPEC® Manual Translation Stages guarantee effi -
ciency and durability. All TECHSPEC® stages can be combined to
provide the multi-axis movement needed for many applications.
Goniometers provide an angular movement of an object at the
center of rotation, enabling true 6-axes movement.
