Kinematic, Gimbal Adjustment?

Kinematic Mounts are the most popular and least expensive. A disadvantage with Kinematic mounts is that the mirror center moves along the normal axis when tip/tilt adjustments are made. Gimbal Mounts are more expensive, but are able to solve the problem of unwanted normal motion.

Drive Type Required?

Our large diameter mirror mounts come equiped with three types of drives. Allen-Key versions are adjusted using an allen wrench. Knob versions can be adjusted by hand. Micrometer versions can be adjusted by hand and provide a scale to measure the adjustment. We also offer adjustment knobs that can be used to adjust Allen-Key versions by hand.
