The Cage Assembly System provides a convenient way to construct large optomechanical systems with an established line of precision machined building blocks designed for high flexibility and accurate alignment. See the “Cage Overview” tab for a full definition of this widely adapted construction standard.

Our KC2 Series Mounts have been designed to allow for the precise angular positioning and high degree of flexibility to optics within a 60mm cage system. They can be mounted onto our TR Series Posts using the #8-32 (M4) tapped mounting holes on three sides. Each mount has four through-holes compatible with our ER Series Cage Rods and include four #4-40 setscrews to lock them into place. Also featured on each mount are 100 TPI adjusters with a locking collet design and removable knobs.

The KC2 Kinematic Mirror Mount is a 2" version of the KC1. It provides ±3° of tip-tilt motion for a mounted Ø2" optic secured by the #8-32 (M4) nylon tipped setscrew that is provided.

The KC2-T Kinematic Mirror Mount provides similar functionality incorporating an SM2 internally threaded plate. This mount comes complete with two SM2RR retaining rings.
