Digital Autocollimators
Dual axis digital autocollimators with icon driven software
The Ultra Dual Axis Autocollimator uses the latest camera technology to offer high accuracy and stability over a range of applications. This wide range autocollimator comes with a laser sighting aid for simple setup and a laptop PC with integrated, icon-driven software for measurement, calculation and analysis of a range of features.
Ultra Autocollimator
With a wide measurement range (1800 seconds) and high accuracy (0.2 seconds) the Ultra Autocollimator is widely used in the machine tool industry for applications such as 2 axis straightness, squareness, parallelism measurement of machine tool slides. Applications include:
- simultaneous 2 axis straightness measurement
- alignment of optical systems
- flatness measurement
- lens centration
- angles of optical components and prisms
- checking, setting and measurement of angular indexing heads and tables
Ultra Crossline Autocollimator available with vertical or horizontal base
Ultra Crossline Autocollimator
The Ultra Crossline Autocollimator uses a crossline in place of a dot. Where there are 2 return images very close together the use of crosslines to measure and differentiate between the 2 images allows clear and easy readings. Applications include:
- Lens alignment
- parallelism between front and back faces of a plano lens
- alignment of optical systems
- measuring the angle of optical wedges
Ultra High Precision Autocollimator
The Ultra High Precision Autocollimator is ideal for high precision measurement and indexing of small angles, with a range of 300 seconds and ultra high accuracy or 0.1 second. Applications include:
- Calibration of polygons
- calibration of rotary tables and encoders
- Alignment of optical systems
- indexing of small angle
Simple, Icon driven software
Simple to use software
The Ultra Autocollimator range uses advanced software for measurement, analysis, reporting and storage. Measuring straightness, flatness, twist, polygon and enhanced polygon, the software features include:
- Language options
- averaging options for optimum stability
- Programme measurement to allow supervisors to set up measurement steps
- timed measurements for monitoring
- data import/export options
