Spectra-Physics' Excelsior laser platform includes low-power CW lasers at 375, 405, 440, 473, 488, 505, 532, 561, 594, 635, 785 and 1064nm.
The beam steerers have two fully adjustable mirror mounts that allow entering beams to be non-parallel to the table surface.
The two mirror mounts used are Newport Ultima mount series which are then fitted with 45in mirror holders to hold two 25.4mm diameter mirrors.
By adjusting the bottom mirror, the incident beam can be centred onto the top mirror, which in turn, can be adjusted to steer the beam to the desired location.
Sliding clamps on a solid stainless steel post, 203.2mm high when assembled, provide height adjustment with high stability.
If a taller beam steerer is required, an extension post can be attached.
The beam steerer can be securely mounted anywhere on an optical table by using the stainless steel clamping fork. Request a free brochure from Newport Spectra-Physics ...
