Tilt Platform, Two Axis, Right-Handed, 562 Series
Model: 562F-TILT
Product Series Overview
ULTRAlign Precision Fiber Tilt and Rotation PositionersThe 562F-TILT Tilt Platform provides two-axis (θYθZ) angular alignment of the fiber with minimal translation. The tilt platform mounts on top of an XYZ stage for five degrees of freedom. It offers +2/-1.5° θY, +10/-7° θZ angular range. Fiber and device holders can be mounted to a 562-RAIL-3.7 optical rail (not included) on top of the tip/tilt platform. The 562F-TILT stage utilizes precision 100 TPI adjustment screws and is a right-hand configuration.
Pitch & Yaw Stage Mounts Directly to XYZ Stage
561-TILT and 562F-TILT Tilt Platforms provide two-axis (θYθZ) angular alignment of mounted fibers and mounts securely on the 561 and 562 ULTRAlign linear stages. Fiber and device holders mount to the tip/tilt platforms with the same rail mechanism as the supporting linear stage. Both the 561-TILT and 562F-TILT stages are made of stainless steel for robust control, utilize precision 100 TPI adjustment screws, and are available in right or left-hand configurations. Model 561-TILT provides a load capacity up to 5 lbs. (22 N) with a step sensitivity of 5 arc sec, while model 562F-TILT has a sensitivity of 2 arc sec, but a lower load capacity of 1 lbs. (4.4 N).
Left or Right Handed Configurations
ULTRAlign™ Tilt stages come in mirror-image right and left-hand versions. This permits all micrometers to be located on the same side, so there's never a need to reach over your work to make adjustments on the opposite side. It also means you have more flexibility in how you lay out your experiment on the table. All adjustments can be made with the hand resting on the table for maximum comfort, added stability, and increased sensitivity.
Rail Mounting Fiber Alignment Accessories
An easy-to-use dovetail mounting rail on the top surface of ULTRAlign stages provides a single, common reference surface for precise and secure attachment of fiber systems and device holders for alignment from the wide selection of fiber alignment accessories. We offer a wide range of accessories specifically designed for use with the 561 and 562 Series Fiber Alignment Stages, including fiber holders and positioners, GRIN Lens and objective mounts, a variety of platforms, and a vacuum waveguide mount with eight vacuum ports. Shown is 561-GM 3-axis gimbal bare fiber chuck positioner which features 360° roll and ±5° pitch & yaw with sensitivity of 2° in θX and 12 arc sec in θYθZ, respectively.
