ATS/ATSE Series Overhead Table Shelf Systems are great for off-the-table mounting or storing power supplies, controllers, oscilloscopes, laser diode drivers, and other instruments. Shelf height can be easily adjusted. Hang optional shelves under the main platform. Cables can be routed away from critical setups by using any one of twelve electrical outlets mounted on either side of the ATS shelf system. The ATSE Series Overhead Table Shelf System can be used in applications that do not require electrical outlets. Additionally, by using the ATSE-PS series universal power strips the ATSE shelf system can be field upgraded to include integrated, country specific electrical outlets. ATSE-PS electrical power strip upgrade kits are available for France, Germany, China, England, USA, Italy, Japan and India.
AS Series Accessory Shelves mount below the worktable for out-of-the-way storage of bulky items like lasers and power supplies. Designed with robust, two-inch thick honeycomb paneling, covered by steel on all sides, the shelf is non-resonant. In fact, its guaranteed not to degrade table performance.
NOTE: STANDARD OPTICAL TABLES DO NOT FEATURE HOLES TO MOUNT AS-1568 . The AS-1568 requires holes to be drilled and tapped into the bottom surface of optical tables for attachment. If you are purchasing a new optical table system with an AS-1568 you must notify your Newport representative so that this special feature can be added to the table. You will then be provided with a unique part number for ordering purposes.
If components require additional, positive-tie-down stability, Newport recommends using a breadboard and support posts instead.
Precision Beam Steering Device
Precision Beam Steering Devices take the beam from a laser mounted below the table and direct it through an access hole to the optical setup on the table top.
The system is comprised of two rods (Model 75 Damping Rod), a lower mirror assembly (Model 670-RCB ) thats suspended from a rod attached to the bottom of the table, and a top unit (Model 670-RCT ) that directs the beam precisely to the desired orientation.
