Agilent 10769A Beam Steering Mirror
Agilent 10769A Beam Steering Mirror
The Agilent 10769A Beam Steering Mirror provides the beam-steering
hardware from the Agilent 10768A kit, along with some mounting
hardware. This combination of parts allows you to deflect a laser beam at
any angle, in either the vertical or the horizontal polarization plane of the
beam. One use of this hardware is for laser measurements and calibration
of slant-bed lathes. In this case, the beam steering mirror is used to deflect
the beam from the laser head upward, through the interferometer, along
the lathe's cross slide; the other measurement optics and hardware can be
the same as for standard measurements.
You can use one or more Agilent 10769A mirrors to create a path from the
laser head to an interferometer in an otherwise inaccessible position. A
typical use is with the Agilent 10768A Diagonal Measurement Kit on a
milling machine in which the table moves in only one axis.
Agilent 10767B Lightweight Retroreflector
The Agilent 10767B Lightweight Retroreflector is intended for use as the
measurement retroreflector in situations where the weight of the
Agilent 10767A retroreflector might distort the machine — for instance, a
small robot or a small coordinate measuring machine (CMM). The two
retroreflectors use identical optical elements, the only difference is in
their housings.
Agilent 10744A Accessory Kit
The Agilent 10744A Accessory Kit provides mounting hardware you can
use with many Agilent Technologies measurement optics to meet the
physical needs of your measurement situation. For instance, with multiple
posts and the large base, you can build a tall, rigid tower for mounting
measurement optics high in the center of the machine's work zone.
