Base Positioners

Product catalog summary

Overview

This document provides detailed technical specifications and descriptions of various precision optomechanical components and positioning devices manufactured by Standa. The products covered include base positioners, multi-axis tilt platforms, adjustable laser holders, tilt/rotation stages, kinematic bases, and multi-axis translation assemblies. These components are designed for precise angular and linear adjustments in optical setups, suitable for laboratories and industrial applications.

1. Multi-Axis Tilt Platforms

Model 6TP116: Provides two-axis angular adjustment (tilt and in-plane rotation) with ranges of ±2° tilt and ±2.5° rotation. Adjustments are made via two side-by-side micrometer screws, uncoupled and non-calibrated. Load capacity is 15 kg, weight 1 kg. The platform features a 25 mm grid of M6 and M4 tapped holes and clearance holes for mounting or clamping.

Motorized Version 8MTP116: Similar angular ranges with enhanced resolution (1.25 µm full step, 0.156 µm in 1/8 step), repeatability of 1 µm, and a maximum load of 10 kg. Uses 8CMA28-10 actuator with DB15 motor connector and 1.2 m cable included. Weight is 1.3 kg.

2. Adjustable Laser/Laser Head Holders (6LH Series)

Designed for stable, repeatable mounting and drift-free pointing of cylindrical laser heads. Supports adjustable basis lengths of 25, 50, or 70 mm. Made of black anodized aluminum with M6 tapped holes and 6.4 mm clearance slots for mounting on tables or breadboards. Load capacity and wide adjustment angles ensure versatility.

3. Tilt/Rotation Stages

Model 6PT110: Provides ±5° tilt about two axes and ±5° in-plane rotation with 9 arcsec resolution via precision M6×0.25 screws. Features a spring-loaded mounting clamp for components up to 38 mm height and 30×30 mm footprint. Weight is 0.23 kg. Constructed from black anodized aluminum.

Model 6TS62 and 6TS72-72: Single-axis tilt stages with ±6° tilt range and 6 µrad sensitivity. Pivot uses two hardened steel balls. Weight ranges from 0.11 to 0.16 kg. Base includes M6 tapped holes for mounting.

Model 6TS29-21: Tip/tilt stage with ±3° tilt range, compatible with 7T25-10 dovetail linear translation stage. Load capacity 1.5 kg, weight 0.025 kg.

4. Three-Axis Tilt and Rotation Table (6PT169)

Provides three independent angular adjustments (tilt Θx, Θy ±4°, rotation Θz ±4°) about orthogonal axes with 8 arcsec sensitivity. Suitable for precise alignment of prisms, beamsplitters, and mirrors. Mounts horizontally or vertically with multiple attachment options including clamps and screws. Weight 0.43 kg. Made from black anodized aluminum.

5. Pitch & Yaw Platforms (7FA5)

Offers pitch ±3° and yaw ±4° angular adjustments with 10 arcsec resolution. Compatible with 7TF2 translation stages. Designed for fine angular positioning in optical setups.

6. Kinematic Bases

Used for repeatable positioning with arcsecond-level repeatability. Features spring steel hooks for secure locking and quick release. Platforms have M4 and M6 mounting holes and clearance slots for flexible attachment. The kinematic scheme uses three hardened steel balls engaging with a cone, v-groove, and flat for precise repositioning. Models include 6KB31 and 6KB131, the latter with a revolving mounting disk for additional positioning freedom. Materials are black anodized aluminum with weights ranging from 0.14 to 0.36 kg.

7. Multi-Axis X-Y-Z Assemblies

Standard and custom multi-axis translation assemblies are available, combining various translation and rotation stages for complex positioning tasks. Examples include models 7T38, 3BP38, 7T167-25, 7T173-20, and motorized versions like 8MT167-100 and 8MT173-20. These assemblies feature multiple mounting holes and clearance slots for flexible integration. Custom connection plates and accessories can be produced without affecting delivery times.

Critical Parameters and Best Practices

  • Load Capacities: Vary by model, from 1.5 kg (6TS29-21) up to 15 kg (6TP116).
  • Angular Ranges: Typically ±2° to ±6° for tilt and rotation, with some models offering ±5° or ±4°.
  • Resolution and Sensitivity: From micrometer-level linear resolution in motorized stages to arcsecond-level angular sensitivity in tilt stages.
  • Material and Finish: All main components are made from black anodized aluminum for durability and stability.
  • Mounting Options: Multiple tapped holes (M4, M6), clearance slots, and compatibility with clamps and breadboards ensure versatile installation.
  • Motorization: Available for select models, providing enhanced precision and repeatability with integrated actuators and connectors.

Summary

The document comprehensively details a range of precision optomechanical positioning devices designed for angular and linear adjustments in optical experiments and industrial applications. The products emphasize high repeatability, fine resolution, robust construction, and flexible mounting options. Motorized versions extend capabilities for automated control. These components are essential for precise alignment and positioning of optical elements such as lasers, prisms, beamsplitters, and mirrors.

Two clearance holes ∅6.2 are provided in the base of the unit. This allows to attach 6TP116 to tables and breadboards. Also you can clamp the base of the unit by STANDA Table Clamp 3TC5; this way you can orient the unit on the table in any direction. The tilt platform is made of black anodized aluminium. Multi-Axis Tilt Platform 6TP116 provides angular ad­ustment about two-axis – j tilting and in-plane rotation. The mounting platform is rotated around kinematic pivot point by two micro­ me­ers. The out-of-plane t tilting range is ±2° and the in-pla­ e rotation ranges n is ±2.5°. Two micrometer screws are located side by side for a handy use. The adjustment movements are not calibra­ed, and they are t uncoupled. Base Mounts & Accessories Brackets & Rails e-mail: [email protected] Optical Tables
