Mirror Mounts

• Kinematic designs are widely used for their robustness and thermal stability, maintaining alignment over time. Gimbal mounts offer a broader angular range with reduced adjustment cross talk, making them ideal for more complex beam steering needs.
• These mounts are essential in most optical systems where precise beam routing is required, from laboratory setups to industrial applications.
• Mirror size compatibility: 12.7 mm to 300 mm in diameter.

![]() Top-Adjust Mounts |
Top Adjust mirror mounts have vertically oriented adjustments located safely and conveniently above the mirror so your hands are never in the beam path. This configuration enables thinner profiles for use with beam splitters and in compact spaces. |
Φ10.0 (0.4")* |
|
|
![]() True Gimbal Mounts |
Gimbal mounts have axes of rotation (pitch and yaw) which intersect at the center of the surface plane of the optic so that the beam length will not change during adjustment. True gimbal mounts always have rotation axes that are true (parallel and orthogonal) to the mounting surface. This configuration eliminates cross talk between the adjustments. |
Φ20.0 (0.8")* |
|
|
![]() Large Diameter Mounts |
Large diameter mounts are made to position and align mirrors with diameters from 80 to 300 mm. In addition to their diameter capacity, they have exceptional adjustment sensitivity and do not exhibit any adjustment cross-talk during alignment. |
Φ80.0 (3.2")* |
|
|
![]() Vacuum Compatible Mounts |
Vacuum Compatible mounts are made from stainless steel and processed with special lubrication and vacuum-level cleaning. These mounts have less volatile organic compounds to ensure minimal outgassing in a 10E-6 Torr vacuum environment. |
