Product catalog summary

Overview: The document provides detailed information on visual autocollimators and their accessories, focusing on their applications in measuring angle, straightness, flatness, squareness, and parallelism. It highlights the flexibility, affordability, and ease of use of these instruments.

Specifications: Visual autocollimators, such as the Taylor Hobson VA900 and TA51, are described as highly accurate instruments. They are equipped with micrometers for precise angular displacement measurements. The TA51 model includes two micrometers for dual-axis measurement, while single-axis types require rotation for second-plane measurements.

Features: The VA900 and TA60 Minidekkor models are noted for their affordability, lightweight, and portability. They can measure both X and Y axes simultaneously and are effective on low reflectivity surfaces or small surface areas. The TA60 Minidekkor is particularly suitable for general measuring duties in workshops and tool rooms.

Applications: These autocollimators are used in various industries, including machine tools, aerospace, marine, and steel rolling, for checking and setting straightness and alignment. They are also used for measuring the radius of curvature of lenses or mirrors and the spacing of electrodes.

Technical Support: Taylor Hobson provides dedicated technical support through Spectrum Metrology, offering advice, demonstrations, and training. Spectrum Metrology also serves as the authorized repair agent and maintains a stock of demonstration equipment for hire or sale.

Visual autocollimators: flexible, affordable, easy-to-use and read The visual autocollimators are extremely accurate instruments with a wide variety of applications. They are normally supplied with the eyepiece positioned for straight through viewing, although the TA51 is available with the eyepiece positioned for right angle viewing if required. Measurements are made using a graticule in the eyepiece viewing system with or without micrometers. The Taylor Hobson VA900 and TA51 Autocollimators incorpaorate a micrometer in the eyepiece viewing system for the precise measurements of angular displacement....
