TH-MS103-M - Adapter Plate, Optic Mounts to MS Series Translation Stages, Metric
The TH-MS101 base plate has a central 8-32 (M4) through hole and four precision machined dowel holes that allow for the MS1(-M) translation stage to be secured in two orthogonal orientations when the dowels are being used.
The TH-MS102 right angle plate has a central #8 (M4) through hole and four precision machined dowel holes on each of its two mounting surfaces. The TH-MS102, with the use of the dowels, allows an MS1(-M) to be vertically mounted so that the surface of the stage is orthogonal, within 2 mrad, to the horizontal plane. Two hardened steel alignment dowel pins are provided with each bracket.
The TH-MS103(-M) adapter plate has a central #8 (M4) through hole to secure the plate to the TH-MS1(-M) translation stage. The four precision machined dowel holes on the underside of the plate allow the TH-MS103 adapter to be mounted so that the key way on the top surface is either orthogonal or parallel, within 2 mrad, to the direction of the translation if the dowel pins are used. Two hardened steel alignment dowel pins are included with TH-MS103(-M). The CT series of mounts are designed to fit into the keyway on the TH-MS103 adapter plate, thus ensuring the orientation of the mounted component. The metric version can be identified by a small dimple on the underside of the plate located next to the central bore, shown in the photo to the right.
