Request InfoEdmund Optics Inc.Edmund Optics Inc. has introduced a family of TechSpec kinematic optical mounts and mounting table platforms that enable precision adjustment and high repeatability. The mounts feature high-accuracy screws in either two- or three-adjustment versions. Optical holders are available for the most common sizes of English or metric components, and C- and T-thread versions are compatible with the company’s line of mounting components. Horizontal adapters allow quick conversion and maximized clear apertures with diameters of 19.05 and 38.1 mm. Tip/tilt range of the kinematic mounts is ±5°, linear...See full productRelated content from Photonics MediaPRODUCTSPhotonics Spectra February 2023 IssueMounted Color FiltersMounted Machine Vision Filters from Edmund Optics Inc. are color filters optimized for use with popular LEDs with ≥85% transmission and blocking capabilities.
