in-line compact telecentric lenses
Edmund Optics has introduced its new Techspec in-line compact telecentric lenses, featuring an ultra-compact design with a small footprint for ease of integration where space is at a premium. The lenses offer large maximum sensor formats with the benefi t of even front illumination for excellent accuracy and resolution. The lenses provide excellent
telecentricity with very low distortion, which makes them well suited for easy integration into gauging systems and for volume
Wax mounting system
Superabrasives specialist Engis has introduced its advanced wax mounting system to the UK wafer polishing and optics market. The modular system, which has been designed to be fast and easy to use, allows for repeatable wax bond thickness, provides improved part fl atness and thickness, and requires minimal operator skill and intervention. Particular features of the Engis wWafer mounting system include fast mounting block cooling, adjustable pneumatic pressure and rapid mount and de-mount time. Tap water can be used in the machine and the integrated non-contact
optical fabrication machine
inspection applications. The in-line port accepts ¼-inch and smaller fi bre optic light guides, making them ideal for imaging refl ective objects and electronics. They are perfectly suited for
a wide variety of demanding applications with limited space requirements such as circuit boards and semiconductor inspection.

OptiPro Systems, a designer and manufacturer of optical fabrication equipment, has launched its Pro 80 line of machines for low, medium and high volume production of precision optics. The range includes the Pro 80G or GTS (grinder, twin- spindle as an option), Pro 80P (high speed spherical polisher), and the Pro 80UFF (ultra-form fi nishing for aspheres). The modular concept packs a lot of capability into a a compact footprint, and also includes OptiPro’s recently developed powerful CNC graphical user interface making them easy to use for even complex components. The Pro 80 series is designed
around a vibration isolated granite core to ensure precision, thermal stability and consistent part-to-part accuracy. The machine measures
Micro-prisms
heat dissipation system maintains cooling water cleanliness for direct drainage. The system, which includes a CE compliant, interlocked enclosure, has 180mm capacity and is available in 2-, 3- or 4-station versions.

Tower Optical has released a series of stock micro-prisms with sizes from 0.5mm to 5.0mm for development of fi bre optic and medical products. The size range of these prisms allows miniature packaging of solid-state lasers and associated optical components. The prisms are right angle type and are one-half of a cube. The Tower Optical 4531 series
of micro prisms contains nine members including 0.5 mm, 0.7mm, 1.0mm, 1.5mm, 2.0mm, 2.5mm,
1 x 1.5 x 2.08m. The Pro 80 comes equipped with the powerful high-end Fagor 8070 CNC machine control with a high resolution LCD touch screen monitor.

3.0mm, 4.0mm, and 5.0mm. The mPU series are manufactured from BK7 optical glass. They feature fl atness of λ/2 at 633nm, surface quality of 40-20 and angular tolerance of ±3 arc minutes. The fi nished size is one-half of a cube of the same dimensions. These micro prisms are supplied uncoated. Coatings are available as a custom product and include a wide variety of aR coatings for the legs and refl ective coatings for the hypotenuse.
