Kinematic Mounts for Round Optics

Kinematic mounts for round optics are precision optical components designed to allow for the fine adjustment and alignment of spherical optics, such as lenses, mirrors, and prisms, within optical systems. These mounts offer high-accuracy positioning by allowing both linear (x, y, z) and angular (pitch, yaw, roll) adjustments.

Kinematic mounts for round optics are precision optical components designed to allow for the fine adjustment and alignment of spherical optics, such as lenses, mirrors, and prisms, within optical systems. These mounts offer high-accuracy positioning by allowing both linear (x, y, z) and angular (pitch, yaw, roll) adjustments.

These mounts are particularly useful for applications that require precise alignment and stability, ensuring the optics are securely held while still allowing fine angular adjustments. We offer both 2 degrees of freedom (angular adjustment) and 3 degrees of freedom (angular and linear adjustments) mounts, catering to a wide range of precision optical alignment needs.

Features

High Precision Adjustments

Allows precise angular alignment (pitch and yaw) and, for 3DOF versions, also includes linear adjustments (x, y, z).

Secure Holding

Optics are securely held using plastic ball sets, preventing damage while ensuring a firm hold.

Angular Adjustment

Provides up to ±4º angular adjustment with fine-tuned control.

Versatile Sizes

Available for ½", 1", and 2" diameter optics, catering to a variety of optical components.
