Motorized Optical Mount Selection Guide
Overview
Newport offers a large selection of Motorized Optical Mounts to fulfill virtually any research or laboratory need. With the addition of New Focus, we have added the complete line of world class Picomotor driven optical mounts. Motorized optical mounts are great for automating sensitive lab or production optical systems, as well as making adjustments in tight spaces where manual adjustment is not possible.
Motorizing a Manual Optical Mount
Many of our standard mirror and optical mounts can be converted to motorized by adding our linear actuators. For a list of the options please view our linear actuator to Mirror Mount Compatibility guide. For custom OEM or special applications, contact us to speak with our sales and application engineers.
